I did a terrible job putting this workshop on my own personal social media, I really did, nontheless, it is officially sold out, and I’m excited to see all of tonight’s participants.

Tonight’s refreshments will be provided by a local bakery. It’s harvest season, so you know we’re leaning into fall. And you already know I’m never inviting you anywhere without something refreshing. We’ll have chilled apple c***r, fall treats and good conversation.

What I’m noticing is that people aren’t coming to Sensory Notes just for fun. We absolutely have a good time and we talk, but many participants are coming because of the work they do. They want to understand sensory science and how it can help them better serve their communities, plan events, engage their groups and design experiences that feel more meaningful. Impactful events are better with sensory experiences.

As we move into end-of-year planning, this is a good time to think more sensory-forward. It’s time to ground, gather and pay attention to how people actually feel inside the experiences we create for them.

Tonight’s workshop is sold out, but I’ll be putting next week’s workshop on Eventbrite soon. And this time, I promise I’ll do a better job promoting it on my personal pages.

As a scientist, these workshops are not only part of my work, but they also give me real-world observational data and insight that help us better serve our clients with larger workforces, 100-plus-person events and teams that want to improve communication, connection and efficiency. These smaller sessions allow me to observe how people respond, what keeps them engaged and which sensory details make an experience more meaningful before we apply those lessons on a larger scale.

See you all tonight ❤️💕✨

Taking you guys on my walk with me. When I talk about designing hands-on sensory programming for the workplace, I’m talking about an employee appreciation event where people from finance, operations, sales, HR, and customer service come together to make something with their hands from something unfinished to finished. These are teams and people who usually communicate through emails or meetings, and the programming we design gives them a series opportunities to learn about each other’s preferences, strengths and in return making the team more efficient and that’s something that impacts revenue directly. That’s the part I want HR directors and employee experience teams to think about: What are we giving people an opportunity to do together and what’s the outcome we are looking for?

If the goal is employee bonding, I’d build in time for people to compare preferences, ask questions, and learn something about one another while they’re making. If the focus is employee wellness, I’d think about the pace, the sensory choices, and whether people can participate comfortably. The activity needs to be tied to what you want the outcome and impact to be for that group. That’s where the planning starts for me.

Before taking client meetings this morning, I found myself painting the tiniest two-year-old toes. 💅🏾

And yes, there is neuroscience connected to moments like this and you know I always come very factual.

In a study of 112 mothers and fathers, researchers observed parents during 15 minutes of play and contact with their babies. They found that affectionate touch and parent–child interaction were associated with the body’s oxytocin system one of the systems involved in bonding and social connection.

My daughter is two now, but the reminder still applies, connection is often built through small, ordinary moments of attention.

Work-life balance does not always look like perfectly divided hours. Sometimes it looks like answering emails, pausing to paint baby toes, and then walking into a client meeting carrying a little more joy than you had before.

I cherish these tiny breaks in the workday, the moments when I get to be fully present for something that may feel small to me but meaningful to her.

The meeting could wait five minutes. The baby toes could not. 🤎

If your interested in learning more, study: Feldman et al. (2010), “Natural variations in maternal and paternal care are associated with systematic changes in oxytocin following parent-infant contact.”

I’m getting everything ready for this evening’s sensory workshop, Why Do Smells Bring Back Memories? We’re going to smell a few mystery specimens, talk about the neuroscience behind scent and memory, and see where our noses take us.

There are still a few last-minute tickets available if you want to join us tonight!

Can’t wait to see everyone! 🤍

I’m setting up a sensory workshop where participants will smell three mystery specimens, and I’m not only asking them what each scent is. I’m asking where it takes them.

The vocabulary word for that is autobiographical memory, a memory from your own life.

In a 2002 study, Herz and Schooler found that odor-cued memories felt more emotional and immersive than memories prompted by pictures or words.

The odor is operating as a retrieval cue: something that helps bring stored information back into awareness.

That’s what we’re testing tonight not only, “What do you smell?” but, “What did the smell help you remember?”

AUTOBIOGRAPHICAL MEMORY: Memory from your own life
Neuroscience keyword: Retrieval cue
Study: Herz & Schooler, 2002
Full class on YouTube in about a week or so ❤️

Have you ever smelled something and instantly thought of a person, place or moment from years ago?

Come experience why it happens.

During this intimate Sensory Notes experience, you’ll smell three mystery scents and pay attention to what each one makes you recognize, feel and remember. Then I will explain in clear, everyday language what happens between your nose, brain and memories.

Expect an evening that is part fascinating talk, part interactive scent experience and completely different from an ordinary workshop.

Your ticket includes:

• Three mystery scent experiences
• A guided smell-and-memory activity
• Your own Sensory Memory Record to complete and take home
• Complimentary refreshments

No science background is needed, and this is not a perfume-making class. Just bring your curiosity and see where your senses take you.

Wednesday, September 16 | 6:00–7:30 PM
The Beauté Loft | Grosse Pointe Woods
$45 | Only 15 seats available

Be among the first to experience Sensory Notes.

Look at the air quality in Michigan right now! Michigan has passed a new school cell phone law, and here is what parents and students need to know.

Beginning with the 2026–2027 school year, all Michigan public school districts and charter schools must adopt a policy that prohibits students from using smartphones and other covered wireless devices during instructional time.

The law does not necessarily ban students from bringing phones to school, and it does not automatically create a statewide bell-to-bell ban. Local school boards can decide whether phones must stay in backpacks, lockers, classroom holders or secure pouches.

The law also requires exceptions for medical needs, IEPs, 504 accommodations, teacher-approved assignments, school-issued devices and certain emergencies.

Each district must publicly post its policy and explain how it will be enforced.

So the biggest takeaway is this: phone use during classroom instruction will be restricted statewide, but the exact rules and consequences will still be decided locally.

I’m sick about it 😩🥹

Trying new cake recipes because entertaining is an art, and I take it very seriously. Today’s lesson: which one deserves a permanent place on the dessert table.

Should my next gathering include my dark chocolate ganache cake or my moist lemon with a glaze so clear you can see through it.

The best part of it is sharing the calories. I definitely thought the cake was a little cooler than it was. Oh well. The more Chocolate the better
