I'm drinking heavy tonight. I'm drinking Sprite Zero. I'm pounding it down tonight. Um, but I did just spend the last week, um, at a family reunion, um, in the Lake of the Ozarks in Missouri, and You know, it's really something special. Um, I have a really big family, and so there were, I think, 145 of us that made it to the reunion this year. We have it every 3 or 4 years. Um, and so I have been gone all week. We just got back yesterday, so I'm catching up on laundry today, and, um, I'm ready to do a box reveal for you. All right, let me say hi to everybody. In the chat. Jill's here. Jill says she's an Ultimate subscriber. That's what we're gonna unbox tonight. We're gonna unbox the Ultimate box tonight. Hi Connie, good to see you. Patty, good to see you.

T-Shirt Club subscriber in the house here. Linda's here. Hi Lisa. Um, hey Bridget, Christina, I've missed y'all too. I've been gone all week. I did have fun with the family. Um, my daughter won the bowling championship. Okay, if you don't know, my family is very highly competitive, so we make everything a competition. We had a poker tournament, we had a bowling tournament, we had a race car championship, um, race, we had cornhole tournament. Like, we— everything we turn into a competition. My daughter My 16-year-old won the bowling tournament with a score of 174, her highest record ever. And my son and his cousin won the cornhole tournament, and there was some stiff competition there. I made it to the, the third table during the Texas Hold'em poker competition. I didn't make it to the final table, but we started with 7 tables, so I made it pretty far. I outlasted my brother and my mom, so I'm pretty proud of that. We have a lot of fun. We have a lot of fun at our family reunions. It's very well organized. Our family forms a committee and they plan it for years. And so it's just really cool. My, my grandmother is one of very many— 12, 14— she's a sibling of 12, 14. My mom is the sibling of 7 or 8. And, you know, so everybody— it's just a big family, so we have a lot of fun. Um, okay, let me come back to the chat. Um, okay. Okay, everyone's here. I love it. So let's just dig in. I don't want to, um, I don't want to wait any longer to dig in because I'm loving this box. Um, I saw in the chat somewhere, um, Jocelyn said, I love watching you. The fact that your wall is still up. Um, okay, so this— you guys may not know what this wall is behind me because if you don't know, many of you know this, but I'm a business coach also and I have thousands of students and we just had our big June launch last month and I added in over 800 new members to my coaching program. And so this wall is a representation of all those awesome entrepreneurs that we just added into Launch Your Box last month and several of them are here watching tonight. So if you don't know, that's what this wall is. I love putting the names on the wall because, because, you know, it's, it's never just a number to me. I always have goals and I always have, you know, like what I'm reaching for. But I really look at this wall, like I will sit on that couch and I will just scan the names and I, and I just really think about the people that have joined me on this journey of starting a business. And every person on there matters to me and everybody has a name and a face. And it's really important for me to dig in and and help them wherever, just meeting them right where they're at and helping them grow their business. So that's what that is. That's not what we're here to talk about. Patricia says she bowled a 276 once. Is it like the highest you could bowl, like a 300? That's amazing. Golly. Like superstars, like bowling superstars. Okay, so here's what we have tonight. We have the July monogram box. Also, I got my nails done today because they were about to fall off. Look how cute they turned out! Super cute. Anyway, I'm, I'm really all over the place tonight. Oh, and you know what else? Um, I'm alone tonight, so I have to figure out how to link the bot up. So will you just tell me something you've done this summer for vacation while I figure this out? Let's keep the chat going, um, because I have to do the bot, and I don't do it often enough because, you Amber's always— Amber's always with me. But, um, here it is. I'm gonna see if I can get it without having any, any problems tonight. Got it, got it. Okay, let's see if I can do this all by myself. It's e— it's easy to do, and she gives me a hard time about it because it is easy to do. I just, you know, I don't know because I don't do it often enough. I don't know if I got it. It says saved. Let's see what else I need to do. It says saved. Um, okay, well, somebody test the word link for me in the chat and just let me know if you get my link. She set it all up for me, but I have to, I have to connect it. Um, so we'll make sure this is going before I continue. Type the word link in the chat. Let me know if you get something in your Messenger And if we're all good, then I will continue. And if we're not, I will keep fumbling around to see what I need to do next. Um, let's see. Uh, Brenda said, I enjoyed a 10-day vacation with my granddaughters in Chicago, Missouri, and Wisconsin. Awesome. Um, Treva says, I just spent 2 and a half weeks in Angel Fire. Oh, I bet the weather was so nice. It's just real— it's cooled off a little bit. I mean, we're in the 90s not the hundreds. You guys are typing the word link, but is anybody getting the links? Not working. Okay, going back to here. I am not giving up on this. I know there's something I need to do. Let's go back out. Oh, turn on the trigger. Boom! I think I figured it out. Okay, type the word link again. Try for me again. Sorry. Oh man, life's rough sometimes. Try the link for me again one more time. Um, and I will get started. And while you guys are, um, are checking the link for me— Sam says my boy and I are in Pennsylvania. I bet the weather's nice there too. Christina says girls crafting weekend next weekend. That sounds fun. Um, Lisa says she went to a really neat mosaic seashell class in Austin. That sounds fun. Okay, we'll see if I— yes, okay, we're in business. Thank you, ladies. Amber will appreciate y'all. Thank you so much. Okay, if you're new, if you type the word link in the chat, um, you're going to get the links about what I'm talking about tonight. So we're just making sure that works before I carry on and then nothing's working tonight, because that's, you know, leave it to me to have an epic fail tonight. All right, July Monogram Box, um, let's talk about it. We're gonna just dig right in. So what I'm opening tonight is the Ultimate Box. Um, and so I'm going to explain— if you're new around here, I'm going to explain what the difference is between monogram box, the combo box, and the ultimate box. Okay, those are our 3 levels of boxes that we have. I always open up ultimate box so that you, I— you can see all the things. This is— if you get the ultimate box, you're getting all of this inside here. All right, so we start every month with an insert. Summertime, sweet summertime. We hope you're finding time to relax, whether it's on vacation or just even in your backyard. July's Monogram Box was designed to make that vacation time just a little bit better. We hope you love this month's box. Okay, so this is the theme. I always— we always kind of— you can see it's going to be a lot full of color based on the insert. Now we start the box. I have a weird setup. I think I need like a pedestal or something. We always start the box with— don't look, don't look— with our t-shirt club. Um, that is on the top. So our t-shirt club goes in our combo boxes and our ultimate boxes. So if you get a combo box, that means you get the t-shirt club, and if you get the ultimate box, that means you get the t-shirt club and the matching accessory. Okay, so let's talk about this, because if you're a subscriber You know that I am wearing the t-shirt club for this month, Sunshine and Tan Lines. It's all about summer. I was gifted a shirt in this color back a few months ago at some event I was at, and I was like, this is the most beautiful color shirt. I need, I need to print something on this color for our box. And so I kind of got inspired and I thought, oh, this box is going to be perfect for this t-shirt, and then I'll make a design that will go with our box. And so that's when I came up with Sunshine and Tan Lines, and it's just really full of color. I like a darker tee, um, just because I feel like it helps cover all the things, the imperfections we don't like about, you know, our bodies. And so I went with the darker tee. I love a soft heathered tee, and that's what these are. They're unisex sizing. And then I used this orange and pink ink, and you're going to see why in just a minute. But this month is all about, you know, enjoying the summer. Some of you that live up north, you have a very short summer and you need to take advantage of it every day that you can. Those of us a little further south, we have summer for a long time, but we enjoy summer for a long time. And so this was just a reminder to get out in the sunshine. Um, and you know, you're gonna have tan lines. My daughter has the worst sock tan line ever. And then when we go lay out by the pool, she wears socks too. She's like, well, I already have a sock tan line, so there's no point in trying to fix it now. She's, she's my weird child, but I love her. You also got a super cute waterproof sticker. I put these on my laptop. Let me show you. I have it sitting right here. I love to throw them on my laptop. This is going to go great, like right here. Um, but these are fun. They're waterproof. You can stick them on tumblers, you can stick them on luggage. You know, kind of mark your luggage if you travel a lot. You can put them on notebooks, you can put them on your laptop, whatever you want to put them on. Let me know in the chat, what do you put your stickers on? And then our ultimate subscribers, you know, I don't— you know what I'm missing today? I don't have any earrings on. Our ultimate subscribers got these, um, super cute earrings. Nicole, yes, our tees are always unisex sizing, so you don't ever have to worry that you're going to get a different cut I use a couple different brands, but the brands are very comparable to each other. So if you're a large in one brand, you're a large in the other brand too. And so we've tested those as well. Okay, so, and these are the super cute earrings. They have lots of color on them. They have the pinks and the teals and all the things. Let me just pop them in my ears because I feel naked. Connie says she put her stickers on her planner. Sam says she puts them on her cell phone. Um, yes. Jamie says this tea color is one of my favorites, wearing it to my first teacher work day tomorrow, hanging on to summer as long as possible. Oh goodness, school starts this week, Jamie! That sounds terrible. It should, it should be mandatory that school doesn't start till August, and maybe mid to late August at that. It should be mandatory that we don't start school in July. That's summertime. Okay, now, so this is a t-shirt club, and our Ultimate subscribers got these cute little, um, daisy hoop earrings to match. Really, really cute. Now let's dig into the box. So let's talk about this a little bit. I like to tell you how everything comes together. Okay, so I knew I want to do something fun, summery in this box for you to enjoy, whether you're taking a vacation, you're going to the water park, hanging out at pool, anything like that. I had this towel custom made for us. Okay, I love when I get to custom make things because that means it's unique and special and different, and I like to be unique, special, and different. Okay, that's what I love about our subscription box. So this is our super cute beach towel, and here's my thoughts because I saw some comments on one of my posts about Um, people that say, I don't go to the pool, I don't go to the beach, I don't go to the lake— get it, I totally get it. Not everybody loves the water as much as I do. My mom doesn't love the water. But let me tell you how cute this would be as kind of an oversized bath towel. Like, how cute would this be, um, just as a bath towel hanging in your— hanging in your bathroom? It's just got fun colors. Maybe you need Maybe you could grab some solid towels in one of these colors and make a cute little theme. I love kind of an oversize— let me show you, it's kind of that oversized. It would be a great bath towel if you're not— look at this, super cute! You could hang that in the bathroom. Um, if it's not your thing, I always encourage you, you know, I, I try to please everyone. That's my goal. I just want to please everyone every month. If, if you're not beach, lake, pool person, this won't fit in your bathroom decor. Save it and gift it. It would be a great gift, um, for someone's birthday, maybe in the summer or the spring. But this is custom designed beach towel. Um, you never know when this might come handy. Okay, um, so this is one of my favorite things. I The colors are beautiful. It's going to go with so many things. So whenever I start to put a box together, I always think about this is the main item. So I started with this item. I thought, okay, if I'm going to the pool, if I'm going to the lake, if I'm going to the beach with my beach towel, what else do I need? Okay, um, and Amanda says it makes a nice lightweight blanket too. Absolutely it does. Um, and I thought it would be fun to do something we'd never done before, and that was this super cute monogram visor. Now let me show you something. We had 4 colors of visors, so you're like, well, mine isn't pink, mine was actually navy. Here's mine. Um, so we had pink, navy, coral, and I believe turquoise. So we had 4 different colors, so we just randomly put them into your bag. So, um, you know, putting that visor on— I wouldn't wear my hair down with a visor usually. I would put, um, I would put my hair up in like a— I don't have a, I don't have a scrunchie or anything, but I put my hair up in a messy bun on top of my head and then I would put my visor on. Um, this also keeps the hair off your face and off your neck and all the things when you can like put it up, especially if you have a lot of hair and it's hard to like my hair looks ridiculous right now. Don't, don't, don't— this hairstyle is not it, y'all. But what I'm saying is you— I don't have it in a bun or anything, but you can make it super cute, um, with your monogram visor. We have never had a visor in our box before, so it was something new and fun. And we had 4 different colors, um, so that was something that you'll have when you need it. Okay, take it to the pool, take it to the lake, take use it while you're gardening, if you're working on your lawn, or whatever you're doing outside. Um, this was part of the box, so this was item number 2. And then I thought— I've been wanting to do this for a while, but I thought if I'm going to the beach— I'm like a huge beach girl. Um, I'm always, I'm always like, my cup is always getting sand in it. Can I say that? Like, it's always like It gets knocked over, sand gets kicked on it. My tumbler is always like stuck in the sand somewhere, and never fails, I lose half my drink and I got sand in my cup. And so what I wanted to give you was, um, these cute little beach spikes, and I gave you a set of 2, um, and I have them match— can you see? I have them match the towel. Um, so here's one thing I want to show you. Um, they have this pink film on here and you're supposed to take it off. I didn't want to make the girls at the warehouse take all of these off because I figured we can do our own too. But this pink film comes off. It's just a protective film for the print on the cup. And so, um, you can take that pink film off or you can leave it on and you have extra protectant. But here's what somebody, one of our subscribers, shared with me. They said these are perfect in between your seat cushions, whether you're on the couch at home, whether you're on the— maybe the couch on the patio. So I thought, let's test it. Got a couch right here, let's test it. Um, perfect for in between your seat cushions. So if I'm just sitting here watching TV, these actually are perfect. You can put them in between your seat cushions, and, and this perfect because I don't have a coffee table in here, so I'm always like figuring out where I'm gonna put my drink anyway. So I don't know if you can still hear me, but these are perfect for in between your seat cushions, whether you're on the patio or in the living room. Um, but I thought it was really fun way to look at it. So if you're not a beach person and you won't use these at the beach, use them in your couch. You've just saved your drink. You just saved your drink. So let's go through, uh, let's go through the box one more time. And then we're going to talk about our Teas for Teachers free gift, and we're also gonna— I'm also gonna give you sneak peeks for August. All right, so okay, let's put it back. Let's repack it. So it started with the beach towel, custom beach towel might I add. I love when I get to say that. Then I added a super cute visor that has your initials on it. First time ever we added a visor. You got two custom beach spike, beach cup spikes. I'm not sure what they're called. Um, remember, you can take that pink film off if you would like. Then our combo subscribers got this t-shirt, really folded nicely. And then our ultimate subscribers got these earrings that are in my ear. Um, and everybody got a cute insert and the sticker. I already put it on my laptop. And the cute sticker with our t-shirt club. So this was our July monogram box, um, really fun in the sun. Um, I'm encouraging you to enjoy the summer. I know it's still hot outside, but if you can get out early in the morning or late in the evening and just enjoy the summer— we're gonna miss it when it's cold this winter, so take some time to enjoy your goodies in your box. Um, and if you are not a subscriber and you want to get subscribed right now, we're taking, um, subscribers for August. We do have, um, we do have some of these left for July, so if you go ahead and sign up, you can type the word link in the chat and get signed up and then send us an email, because if you sign up tonight, you're going to get started for August. Um, But if you say, I want a July box, we'll go ahead and charge you for a July box too. We'll ship that out right away and then your August box will come next month. So you can grab one of these if you want one still while we still have them. Now let's shift gears just a minute. I got two more things to show you. We're going to talk about Tees for Teachers. We're in the middle of our launch right now. And then I'm going to give you sneak peeks for August and I have the August t-shirt for you. So hang with me. If you're a teacher in the chat, just say teacher. I would love to say hi to you. Every year at the end of July, we do a special launch for our teacher subscription. So we have a Tease for Teachers subscription. It comes with a tee every month, and you can upgrade and get matching accessory as well. And so this is our cute t-shirt for July. It's going to go out, um, next week, but it is a v-neck tee, and it's— well, I can't get it straight on this camera because I'm backwards. Um, it says teacher It's a V-neck. It's super cute. The earrings that come with it for our T-Shirt and More subscribers, they're going to get these cute black and white pop earrings. They're super cute and go with it. But because we do a special launch every July, we have an incentive for you to join by Friday. And of course, all of our existing teacher subscribers are going to get this too. But we made a little matching tote, a little canvas tote that says Teacher Stuff on it. And so this is going to come inside your teacher subscription with your July tea this month. So all you have to do is get signed up by Friday. Just do it tonight because you're going to get busy this week and forget. But I have a goal of adding 100 new teacher subscribers, and we've already passed over 20. So I would love to get to 100 by the end of the week. So if you have teacher friends, tag them in, in my post, share this with them. I would love for you to share this. We send out a special t-shirt every month that's really teacher-oriented. It has some inspirational message on it, has some teacher theme to it. And I have August teacher tee that I can show you right now. Y'all want to see the August teacher tee? I'm never like on it enough to show you, but I'm on it right now so I can show you. It's really fun design. This— so the one I have in my hand is our July one, and, um, those will go out next week. And then here's our August tee. It says, can't talk right now, doing teacher stuff. And it's all the things that our teachers usually have on them or with them, um, every single day. So it's a super cute t-shirt. So that will be in the August um, Tees for Teachers subscription. Um, so get signed up so you can get the free tote this month, and you'll get the black teacher, um, tee. And the next month you'll get the "Can't Talk Right Now, Doing Teacher Stuff." Um, so that is what's going on. We would love to have as many teachers as possible. Um, we, we love our teacher subscription. I call it the baby subscription because it's my smallest subscription, but I I love creating the tees for the teachers, um, every single month. So, okay, switching gears. Do y'all want to see the August t-shirt first or the August box sneak peek first? Let me know in the chat. T-shirt or box? Here's what's cool about August. I have a brand new collaboration, um, for August, and I haven't— I've talked about it once, but I haven't really talked about it much more than that. But, um, we have a special collaboration for the August box with Lily Pulitzer, and I'm really excited about this. If you know Lily Pulitzer designs and colors, you know that this is going to be bursting with color. It's a really special box. We've never collaborated with Lilly Pulitzer before, so this is a really special box for us, and I'm excited that we are doing it for the August box. If you don't know who Lilly Pulitzer is, it's a brand that is very colorful, very beachy, heavily patterned. It's a great, great long-lasting brand, and I'm excited to be able to collaborate them for the Monogram Box. So without further ado, I'm gonna go ahead and start it off with the box. Okay, so you're gonna— this is your very first look at the August box sneak peek, which is our collaboration with Lily Pulitzer. Y'all, do you see this awesomeness? Um, so, um, everything in the box is branded. By Lily Pulitzer, and I'm excited to have put this box together for you for August. It's full of color, full of pattern, everything you know and love about Lily Pulitzer. And if you don't know, you're going to love the Lily Pulitzer box that is coming as your August Monogram box. Now, I also then designed a t-shirt. You know, I like to have everything that goes together. I, I was looking for a quote, a Lily Pulitzer quote that we could use on a t-shirt. And this one, I found about 4 of them and I kind of saved them and I was thinking about them and I went and I made 3 or 4 designs on this particular quote. And this is the one that just looked the best to me and I was most excited about. So looking at the sneak peek now, let me show you, um, the t-shirt club that's going to go with our Lily Pulitzer box. So it says, being happy never goes out of style. And I, and I love this message because I think that in the world that we live in today, we have to choose every day to get up and be in a good mood. We have to choose to be happy. And, and there are so many things that we can be happy about in our daily lives. And maybe we're not always happy, but there are choices that we make to either Be happy or be miserable. And I love this, being happy never goes out of style. And you can see the Lily Pulitzer signature is on this, just like the branding on the box. So that is the August box sneak peek and our t-shirt club tee. You definitely wanna be a combo box subscriber next month So if you need to upgrade, we have some spots available.
