<p>Hey ValidThoughts listeners, I hope you're doing well. Work has been quite busy, but I'm grateful that the podcast always reminds me to take a breather. We're back with a shorter episode this week, and I hope it offers you a little pause too.</p><p>Now, onto my guest – the first time I came across Mariette’s work was through La Nich. Then I finally met the artist behind the page, and I've been fascinated by her ever since. Mariette is calm and collected, and I really enjoyed getting a deeper glimpse into her life through our conversation.</p><p>As always, I hope you enjoy this conversation as much as I enjoyed recording it. See you soon!</p>

<p>Sabine and I first met through our mutual friend, Phidelia. A big shoutout to Phidelia for introducing me to some really cool people! 😊</p><p>I’m not sure if it was our first or second meeting, but I remember Sabine bringing Eddie along, and from the start, I could tell what a cool and intentional couple they are. So, when I began planning for the new season of this podcast, having them on the pod was a no-brainer. Honestly, I was also excited to get to know them better.</p><p>We could’ve kept the conversation going all day—it was that much fun! I hope you enjoy this episode as much as I did recording it. My hope is that it serves as a reminder that love can be simple yet intentional, and it’s not always about grand gestures. I also hope it inspires you to trust your instincts.</p><p>Until next time, Bisou! 😘</p>
