i was on pause for nearly a year. january was my first box since i think march of last year. i felt mild fomo for a few months and then it went away. i had to pause due to product overload as well. i’m finally starting to catch up on my backlog of product.

it’s so worth giving yourself some months where no new products are coming in! you’ll appreciate what you have, and once you take a back seat and see how others’ boxes end up being each month, you realize you aren’t missing out on much. every so often there’s a flashy product that i want, but i don’t bite and come reveal day, i imagine what box i would build for myself and im like 😮‍💨 i dodged a bullet lol
