The Joy of Missing Out this Women’s Day

Skipping an over-pompous wedding to catch up quietly with an old friend instead ? Or  skipping a night of binge drinking to sit with a waitlisted book ? If this sound like you, then you are experiencing the JOMO !!  

We have all heard about FOMO but let’s face it, there’s a reverse too. JOMO or the joy of missing out. Let’s find out what it is?

When we skip boring activities or toxic interactions or social obligations, to prioritise what truly fulfils us - these are the moments when JOMO exists ! JOMO is less about losing out on experiences and more about mindful choices, because the pressure to always choose what society expects us to choose is toxic in itself !

Self love is a versatile emotion. Whether it be ways of expressing it or its types, self- love comes in many shapes and forms, even in our normative society, aka a society centered only around a romantic partner’s love or a sacrificial mother’s love.  

Today’s individuals are breaking free of that structure. We are sharing the joys and strength of singlehood over the bonds of community and family, that come at significant personal costs.  

Women’s day is a day when women celebrate themselves outside of their roles as wives, mother, sisters, and daughters. When we do not deliver on these social expectations and focus on our healthy personal goals instead. 

And on this note, don’t our modern homes need to also remind us that choosing our interests as women isn't a flaw to be sidelined for duties at every turn but an expression of self that deserves to be balanced too? 

Our products are mindfully designed with exactly this intention to enhance the space that you inhabit shows the values and interests you hold strongly.

Even Homes want to celebrate mindful choices with their quiet fierceness and authenticity. After all, we acknowledge that taking the road not often traveled isn’t easy. 

Self love to us is a celebration of our passions and commitments, the hobbies we adore, the shows that shape us, and the books whose worn pages we return to like a weary traveler finally making it home. 

At Even Homes, this means we have your decor needs covered, so that when you choose to stay at home instead of an event, you feel at utmost comfort. Offering the perfect support,  easy to care for and brightening up your home to enhance the space you love.

After all, why should self love and comfort not go hand in hand in order to celebrate the uniqueness of autonomy ?
