Reaching 300,000 of Australia's Wise and Wonderful Every Day

Sunday Edition | AM

Good morning

Good morning, members! How are you all on this beautiful Sunday morning? I (Vella) am writing to you with my toes buried in the sand, surrounded by the laughter of my SDC family. Yep, you read that right—we are taking a break on a gorgeous beach! Spending time with this lovely crew has me feeling incredibly grateful. And that feeling brings me to this week’s quote:

‘It’s not that diamonds are a girl’s best friend, but it’s your best friends who are your diamonds.’

Diamonds might sparkle, but true friends make your life sparkle! They celebrate your victories, pick you up when you stumble, and always know how to make you laugh. So, members, cheers to your besties, your life’s treasures. 💎
