Over the weekend we quietly celebrated the 5 year anniversary of Smellies.
If this year felt a little quieter from us, it’s because we chose to step back and make space for something we haven’t given ourselves in a long time– time to reflect, recalibrate, and rethink the way we want to show up in this next chapter.
We realized we were operating out of habit and influence instead of intention, and that the best way forward was to pause.
This permission to step back and reflect on who we once were and who we wanted to become gave us a new perspective.
We’re building what comes next carefully and quietly, making sure it feels aligned with the heart of why we started.
Thank you for your patience, your presence, and your support through every season of Smellies. More is coming, and we can’t wait to share it with you.
