✨ Radiant Essentials: Summer 2025
Curated by Christina Fontana — for the woman ready to glow from the inside out.
This is something NEW I’ll be putting out each season! This seasonal roundup is a peek inside what’s lighting me up right now — from the rituals grounding me, to the books, wellness trends, and guilty pleasures keeping me aligned, energized, and expanded. 🌞
You’ll receive this quarterly as a love note of curated brilliance to help you shine brighter — in business and in life.
💼 Business & Brilliance
Summer brings more spaciousness, and I’m so grateful for the rhythm I’m in — leading the Aligned and Abundant Mastermind, guiding my Rise + Receive membership, supporting my 1:1 clients, planning the Expanding Your Brilliance Retreat, and launching a brand new VIP Day designed for quantum leaps.
I just interviewed 7 of our Expanding Your Brilliance authors on my podcast and it was truly an honor and so much fun to connect with them!
📚 Book I’m Reading:
Feel Free to Prosper by Marilyn Jennett — a powerful read on aligning with abundance through intentional words and energy.
🌿 Body & Energy
☀️ Morning Ritual
I’m up at 5AM to meditate, connect to my TEDx vision, and enjoy my superfood breakfast: Four Sigmatic coffee + oatmeal with Truvani banana cinnamon protein, sugar-free chocolate chips, and walnuts = high-vibe fuel. ✨
I just purchased the Insight Timer annual subscription and am loving the “Timer” app with interval bells (Sakya Tibetan bowl.)
⚡️ Honoring my Human Design – Manifestor
I honor my need for spacious spurts of productivity. During downtime, I’ve been watching The Kitchen — scroll down to guilty pleasures 😄
🌙 Evening Ritual
Once Lindsay is tucked in, I wind down by spritzing lavender magnesium oil on the soles of my feet for deep, calming rest. I am loving Beauty Sleep tea by Republic of Tea!
💧Hydration Love
I’m obsessed with VenturePal Electrolyte Powder — Passionfruit is my current fave!
🔮 Soul & Shine
🎶 Playlist Vibe: Radiant AF
Go-tos for walking, journaling, and soul-aligned work sessions — loving the “Sunny Day” playlist on Spotify, “I’ll Be There (Cahill Remix)” by Jess Glynne, + anything by Kygo.
Bonus: Sarah Bhalla’s harp music on YouTube while I work = next-level focus + flow.
Movement/Workouts – I go to a virtual reality 🚲spin class called Les Mills – The Trip and love BodyPump (weight class.) Penny has been loving getting outside with Lindsay too! Lindsay got a new water table that she enjoys splashing around in.
I also 🌿weed every week, which oddly calms me. I think it’s because I’m hands-free and unplugged!
🍋 Guilty Pleasures: Nourish & Indulge
-
🍫 Millie’s Dairy-Free Brownie Batter — ridiculously good for a weekly treat.
-
🛁 Epsom Salt Baths with eucalyptus oil from Bath & Body Works.
-
🍳 Watching The Kitchen from bed, snuggling with Penny.
-
🧁 Dreaming of the day I actually learn to bake (for real!).
- Every month, I invest in a 90 minute massage and a facial to keep my skin glowing (I have rosacea.) My facialist used an oxygenating mask on me and my skin glowed for days!
💡 Lessons I’m Learning
-
Patience 🧘♀️
Working with my nervous system coach, Laura, has helped me stretch my capacity, soften my nervous system, and root into trust — daily. - Purpose – I am shedding more of my ego and allowing Holy Spirit to move through me more. I know that this is my real glow-up as I stay plugged into what matters in my life.
☀️ What I’m Looking Forward to This Summer
-
🎤 A 2-Day Speaker Training in July — refining my delivery, owning my story, and preparing for that TEDx stage!
-
💦 Pool Days with Lindsay — especially on Wednesdays, our special mama-daughter day 💖
-
🌸 Hearing back about my TEDx!!! My intuitive friend who I’ve worked with for years says it’s coming in June/July
I hope this list inspired you and helps YOU to feel radiant all throughout the summer months!
