Named one of the “12 Newsletters Actually Worth Opening” by Zoella and described by readers as “a bubbly, confident, wise, kind older sister,” Monday Vibes is an all-in-one personal growth newsletter that brings a cozy, slumber-party feel to some of life’s hardest challenges.
We cover topics ranging from spirituality and mental health to career and relationships.

Psychology (MA from Columbia University)
Wellness (certified life coach and yoga teacher)
Business (former Silicon Valley career)
Along with her three greatest loves:
#realtalk

First Monday of every month at 8:30am EST
She's my down-to-earth friend who gives the best advice.
An honest and funny friend that I could trust with all of my inner thoughts.
As a person, I'd describe MV as uplifting but realistic, respectful, validating, giving...not shoving anything in your face or judging, but offering solutions plus realistic aspirational perspective. MV has a lot of friends, who maybe I do not know, but already feel connected with knowing they read this too.
She is warm sunshine but can address the clouds and thunderstorms of life.
A person who has an infectious laugh, an easy, warm smile, a listening and kind ear, and am empathetic spirit - there's an aura that invites playfulness, safety, and being a full self without judgement or reservation.
Feeling connected to other people going through similar issues.
Discovering new fave AAPI brands.
Finding creative activities for myself.
Gaining new perspectives that make me reflect on my own life.
My monthly reading that I know will have something I DEEPLY resonate with and gives me a positive pause / push towards betterment of self.
I actually read it ;)
It is so personalized. Elizabeth is so approachable and relatable.
It's humble...it's not preachy...it comes from Elizabeth's heart and soul.
It’s real and raw.
The only other newsletters I follow are the skimm or financial newsletters.
The anecdotes and lessons come from such a deeply personal space; this makes it feel like I'm reading a personal letter for me more than a salesy pitch or idea. Also, what newsletter has a party dance playlist? GAME OVER, other newsletters!!
