What is Meadow?

Meadow is a monthly snail mail subscription designed to help you slow down, reflect, and grow. Each month you’ll receive a personal letter, two intentional cards for looking within and connecting with others, and every other month we include paper goods — all crafted intentionally to help you heal, grow, and reach beyond yourself.

What Will You Find?

Take a peek inside the envelope and read a sample letter and see the kind of paper goods you’ll actually receive.

  • A Personal Letter

    An honest letter to encourage and spur you on toward self-reflection, personal growth, and genuine outreach. Each letter is written on a unique theme.

  • Two Intentional Cards

    One asks you to look within - including a few questions to sit with & consider. One asks you to look around - with two conversation starters and one simple, yet practical way to show up for someone else.

  • Surprise Paper Goods

    *Every other month* we include a surprise paper good - think greeting cards, bookmarks, stickers, art prints, and seasonal surprises to keep or share.

  • I've known Vanessa for many years and she's been such a well of knowledge. She always seems to know what to say and how to say it - it's a gift. So, I'm so blessed to join Meadow. Thank you for sharing your heart with us.

  • At first I was hesitant to join, but after reading the sample letter, I was in. I'm excited to start this journey with Meadow and see what else it will bring!

  • There's probably a ton of things I've never really processed completely. So, I'm ready to begin working on healing - and Meadow will be nice to help me do that. I also have a hard time connecting with people. So, the idea of conversation starters every month to help me do that? I'm looking forward to it.

Meadow may be for you if...

You want to grow, but crave something more intentional & screen-free.

At Meadow, our letters meet you where you are, while spurring you on toward growth. Unlike screen-time that distracts you from your reality, our letters encourage you to embrace your life, to be present, aware, and to begin moving with intention.

Our letters provide you with practical steps forward on your journey, so you can take the opportunity to work through all your stuff. We won't ever speak at you, because we're right there with you doing the necessary work of growing and changing, too.

You have a deep desire to live life well & to make a positive impact on those around you.

You're someone who understands that in order to live life to the best of your ability, there's things about yourself that need to grow beyond where they currently are (and perhaps you just need some help to get things moving).

You also have a love for people and you really want your life to bring light and goodness to those around you (and you'd appreciate a gentle monthly nudge that helps you put that into action).

You appreciate being gently challenged, not just encouraged.

You feel the average self-improvement tool/brand sometimes leans a bit too hard toward empty encouragement and unrealistic positivity.

Because you understand that growing and changing is hard, it's not always comfortable, and it's definitely not always pretty. So, instead of just fluff, you embrace being challenged to go beyond your comfort zone.

Common Questions

Collapsible content

Can I gift a subscription?

Yes! If you'd like to gift a Meadow subscription to someone you love, simply add the desired subscription option to your cart, and when you enter the "Shipping Address" at checkout, simply enter the name and address of the person you'd like to gift the Meadow subscription to.

At this time we are unable to include personalized notes with gifted subscriptions.

Can I cancel anytime?

Yes! You can cancel your subscription at any time.

If you subscribed via our monthly option, when you cancel, you will stop receiving monthly envelopes from Meadow either immediately or after one last envelope - this will depend on whether you cancel your subscription before or after that month's subscription payment had been processed.

If you subscribe via our pre-paid 6-month or annual options, you will stop receiving monthly envelopes from Meadow when your subscription period comes to its end. For example, if you purchase a 6-month subscription and you cancel your subscription in month four, you will still receive month five and six envelopes - but your subscription will not continue after the full 6-month period unless you choose to resume your subscription.

While our pre-paid subscriptions (our 6-month and annual options) are non-refundable, you can cancel at any time.

Who Writes Meadow's Letters?
Hi, I'm Vanessa. The Creator & Writer at Meadow. I'm a wife, a mother, a daughter, a sister, and a friend. I am a Christian and my faith informs how I see and exist in the world, but my letters are not devotionals. Instead, faith shows up in Meadow’s letters as it does in my life – genuinely, honestly, and never "in your face."

I earned an education in Psychology because helping others grow & live life well is something I've always felt called to do. So, regardless where you're at in life - no matter your age, your relationship status, your beliefs, or your past - I believe you'll find a meadow full of value in our monthly letters. (:
