[ building the NEW ]

' there comes a time in the life of a woman
when she discards her old ways like tossed shoes in the garbage. when she shreds her list of 'shoulds' + obligations + when impossible expectations are burned in an incinerator.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
when the approval of others, once jewels, now turn to pennies in her sock. when the hunt for another is now replaced by a hunt for herself.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
there comes a time in the life of a woman when she no longer cowers in the shadows of her unworthiness, when she no longer plays small so others can feel big. + when she swaps the role of victim, for the role of CO-CREATOR.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
when she finally feels ready to claim her space in the world + when she redefines compassion as unequivocal self-love.'

- DR. Shefali Tsabary
[excerpt from - the time of the awakened woman]
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
when building the NEW,
calls for you to get CLOSER
to Y O U R S E L F.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
beside you in practice, ALL ways. xx

P+L is evolving, but will always live on [4EVER].

we’re standing in the RAD, the not-so-fab + all the beautiful challenges we’ve LIVED + loved through PARTS + LABOR’s growth. we’ve learned so damn much about ourselves + about YOU + we are more clear than ever on what we desire to create in + for the world.

the P+L ERA has offered pivotal learnings to our team: that time + energy can be scarce commodities… that sometimes, we need to loosen our grip + reimagine, nurture + pour ourselves into the things that ignite our F*CK YES. + that the F*CK YES feeling is NECESSARY..

with ALL of this at heart, we are excited to shift P+L into its next iteration, because: NOTHING CHANGES, IF NOTHING CHANGES.

SO, what does the future of P+L look like? we have [+ ALL ways will] be OBSESSED with cultivating self expression, big bold style, one-of-a-kinds + a rad community of heart-beats, renegades + RBL LVRS. we’re taking it back to our roots + that OG desire for 1:1, curation, focusing solely on custom, bespoke creations. it’s what lights us up, turns us on + aligns in EVERY way with the work we were put HERE to do [hey, UNI, we are listening].

our new custom process will be by-application, alignment-based + ALL-in to create exclusive made-to-order magic that’s one-of-a-kind + FAB, just for you.

ICYMI: you can catch our dream-team creating + collaborating over at our sister co, ENVIRONMENTS Design Studio [+ we promise, if you LOVE what we do HERE, you’ll really love what we do THERE]. ENVIRONMENTS is a FULL-service design studio that creates innately evocative experiences for common spaces. in true alignment, we will be offering up curated, intentional tangibles + soul-shaking IRL experiences through movement practices, rituals + a good old fashioned PARTY or 2.

SO, let’s rock … consider this your invitation to LIVE intentional + 4EVER find belonging for your RAD heart + soul with us cheering you on, ALL ways.
