This episode was sponsored by RVL Wellness Co., a small black woman-owned puzzle company located in Charlotte, NC.
RVL (pronounced Revel) Wellness Co. was founded to provide Black women a luxe self-care experience through dedicated quiet time and mindfulness products.
Founder, Brittny Horne, understood the pressure on Black women to be booked and busy without prioritizing their wellness. She started RVL as a reminder to pause and enjoy an intended moment of calm through puzzling.
They're on a mission to elevate both the personal and professional well-being of Black women. Their mindfulness products feature curated collections from Black female artists and reflect the values, dreams, and joy in our life experience. They believe art should be savored and design puzzles to be framed and used as home decor.
Whether you have time for a mini wellness break or a full day for quiet time, they have a range of puzzles for you to bask in your peaceful moment. Renew your energy with their handmade puzzles available in 48, 120, or 300 pieces.
