Small Business Saturday is my kind of holiday. It’s about choosing community over convenience and keeping our dollars close to home.
This year I joined a founder-led collab curated by my colleague Kari Ginsburg: a searchable catalog of small and microbusinesses across the U.S. Women-owned. BIPOC-owned. Queer-owned. Brick-and-mortar, online, product, and service. Every offer was selected for quality and values.
What’s inside
Gifts with heart – makers, artists, and founders who care about their craft.
Useful services – strategy, wellness, photography, home upgrades, and more.
All budgets – options for gifting and treating yourself.
Easy to sort – filter by location or category, then click any tile to learn more.
My contribution: the Holidays Calendar
I added my Holidays Calendar because it saves time and keeps you consistent when life is full. It’s a Google Calendar you can add to your phone and desktop.
500+ timely moments for social posts, emails, and promos
Built for second-career founders, SAHMs growing a side business, pivoters, and creators
Helps you plan December fast and roll into January with a head start
If you’re juggling work, kids, clients, or all of the above, this is the simplest way to keep showing up. It's also a nice-to-have at $12 so you're not struggling to find out what "holiday" it is today.
Why Not Small?
Buying from small businesses fuels real families and real dreams. It keeps creativity, culture, and customer care alive. Your dollars ripple.
If you grab the Holidays Calendar, tag me with your first scheduled post. I’d love to cheer you on.
