Like many of you, I spent a large part of this weekend crying in my closet so my kids wouldn’t see the pain, fear, and rage I was carrying.

Watching the public execution of an innocent nurse and VA worker - someone exercising his First and Second Amendment rights - in the country I’ve always loved broke something in me. I felt helpless. Hopeless. And honestly, some of the deepest anger I’ve experienced in a decade that has offered no shortage of it.

I kept asking myself: What are we supposed to do now?

We’ve marched. We’ve rallied. We’ve called, emailed, written letters, and shown up to town halls. We’ve done everything we were told civic engagement looks like. And still, here we are.

So I’m choosing to act where I still have agency. The reality is this: the regime in power speaks money. Money talks. While I can’t control everything, I can control where my dollars go.

That means intentionally removing certain companies from our household shopping list (yes, Amazon is hard - I’m a working parent getting messages like “buy this field day shirt” and “dress like an old person for the 100th day of school” - but I’m cutting back as much as I can).

And more importantly, I’m redirecting those dollars toward businesses that align with my values - and my company’s values - of freedom, acceptance, tolerance, democracy, diversity, and forward progress.

Which is why I am incredibly proud to have Globowl listed as a Little Blue Cart brand. Little Blue Cart has built a vetted database of women-, BIPOC-, queer-owned, veteran and military spouse-led businesses so you can truly shop your values - without guessing, without greenwashing, without doing hours of homework.

Every brand is vetted. Every purchase is known to support fairness, freedom, and a future that actually includes all of us.

I don’t have the luxury of despair. I have kids watching. I have a business built on values. And I have choices I can still make.

This is one of them.
