Can you guys just join me in freaking out for a second?? Five years ago, I quit my job to head back to grad school for my master’s in mental health counseling. In the week between, I sent out the first issue of Morning Person, the weekly newsletter I always wanted in my own inbox with genuine recommendations, zero affiliate links, and honest essays about my own challenges in building a beautiful and intentional life. Never in my wildest dreams did I think it would become this! I could not be more grateful for the community of 50,000 we’ve grown into and the readers who were there from day one (let me know if this was you!). Last week, Morning Person found a new home on @patreon and I couldn’t be more excited for this next chapter! I have soo much in store for you. Until then, find me amongst the chili dogs and bright lights in Times Square this week! Thinking of my 22 year-old self who skipped sleep for years to work her ass off in her first editorial job in New York. She’s pinching herself big time right now 💕 https://www.patreon.com/cw/morningperson P.S. If you’ve had any issues with the migration from Substack to Patreon, I promise I’m getting to everyone! Thank you for your patience and for coming with me on this next big adventure! There’s so much more to come ✨ 05 Aug 2026

It’s been a little over a month since I moved into a van and it’s been the most extraordinary month of my life. Don’t get me wrong, it’s been incredibly hard at times, but the challenges have only enriched the beauty—I feel like I’ve grown an entire year since I left. I’ve never prioritized solitude or flexibility into my life, but centering both has felt nothing short of magical. 💫 I’ve visited five (!) National Parks, made friends in tiny Colorado towns, climbed a frozen waterfall to an alpine lake, met Morning Person readers, spontaneously followed a car with skis to the opening day of a mountain, seen landscapes I had no idea existed, meditated at a mountaintop shrine, made soo many matchas, spent nourishing days alone with Toast in deep wilderness and a week in a best friend’s driveway, reconnecting. I’ve wanted to do this for years and opened a savings account labeled “van” a decade ago. Still I had no idea what was in store for me before I left my home and community in Portland. I knew I wanted a big adventure but there’s no way to fully capture how grateful I feel just 34 days in—I can only imagine where this year will take me. If you’re curious, I’ve shared sooo much more on Morning Person. Off to go see what today holds. 💕 https://www.morningpersonnewsletter.com/ 09 Nov 2025

I’m going on tour! ✈️ My debut novel YOU’RE SAFE HERE comes out in less than one month (!) and I’ll be hitting the road to meet you in person and chat with some of my favorite writers, beginning in New York then heading west! Details and tickets available in the link below and in my bio! Any cities we should add?? Let me know here and tag your favorite local bookstore! I’m an offline gal working in an online world—I cannot WAIT to meet in person! 🙌 https://lesliestephens.com/Events 28 May 2024

One of my favorite things about myself is my ability to turn the random contents of my fridge into simple, delicious meals. To make this Miso Tofu Garden Bowl, I put on some Fleetwood Mac then sautéed eggplant and leeks in a large skillet, adding cabbage once the eggplant had softened. From there, I cut firm tofu into bite-sized pieces and added miso blended into some warm water, then covered the pan to allow it to warm. Served it over rice with fermented greens and a spinach-coconut aminos sauce: Blanch the spinach for about 30 seconds until bright green, remove from hot water into a colander. Once cooled, add the spinach to a food processor along with some flax seed oil, coconut aminos, and a couple drops of sesame oil and salt. Test the ratios, blend to taste, eat to heart’s content! 02 Oct 2026

Even when I was in the thick of it, I knew I’d always be nostalgic for this summer. I spent a month in the van, traveling around Montana to research my next novel (including a week at a biostation!) and hike up mountains. Felt so completely aligned with myself, my home, and my city that I felt like I was glowing. Sat in awe, completely alone, in some of the most beautiful places I’ve ever seen. Got really, really dusty on ATVs and surfed in Costa Rica with my best friend. Worked hard on a project coming this winter (!) 🪶🌀👀 Glittered my cheekbones and danced like crazy at every opportunity. Made some big moves for Morning Person and launched on @patreon! Surfed the Oregon Coast and got my van so sandy, wet, and dirty (as she should be). Gabbed about books and supported some of my favorite people in their creative endeavors… …including one large-scale puppet show on a farm. Deepened my friendships and my community in the PNW. Saw more live music. Like soo many shows in different, beautiful places. Bopped around Portland, a city I couldn’t be more grateful to call home. The journal entry that started it all, written at the start of summer. Wrote more on Morning Person, including the biggest lessons I learned! Comment ‘Read’ and I’ll send you the link! x 22 Sep 2026

Having a little thing for green at the moment. Comment ‘Read’ and I’ll send you the link for this week’s Sunday Edition, packed with recs and photos from the week! x 20 Sep 2026

When I thought I was moving earlier this summer I hired home organizers to help me tackle and settle into my new place, since I had a wild three-day turnaround. Long story short: I didn’t move (honestly, thank god, it was ambitious even with lots of help) but decided to still work with professionals to completely overhaul and reorganize my home. Let me tell you, I thought I was an organized person but they completelyyy changed the game, streamlining processes and fixing messes that I thought were beyond hope (like my camping gear and that one drawer in my kitchen…). I was so floored, I interviewed the founder of the Portland company I worked with, the @theorganizedhouse.co on Morning Person for her tips!! Comment ‘Read’ and I’ll DM you the link! x 16 Sep 2026

Only Saturday and already the sweetest weekend staying in town. Loved every bit of summer, but ready for things to slow wayy down! Living in sweats and swimsuits until Monday 🍅✌️ 12 Sep 2026

Had the best first date of my life recently (and hopefully didn’t touch my hair nearly as much as I did here??). Wrote all about it on Morning Person! The comments are cracking me up 💕😂 you can read it on @patreon but here’s a little snippet! x “I spent the rest of the date recalibrating my expectations, even wondering what spell I had cast into the universe to receive this. As we walked into the bar for the first set of open mics, we both ran into friends and grabbed a picnic table with them outside, chatting naturally. I learned that he had spent 10 years sailing around the world, that he listens carefully when his friends speak and remembered tiny details I shared with him, that he’s kind to servers. Each time we caught each other’s eyes, they widened—we were both amazed at how well the date was going.” Stay tuned! 👀 25 Aug 2026

A week so magical, it resists translation. Rode my atv every morning to surf at sunrise. Lived on smoothies. Beached with my best friend and made some beautiful new ones. Didn’t wear a single shirt I packed. Watched my skin bronze. Laughed a lot. Borrowed a book with the promise of returning. Amazed yet again by how beautiful and unexpected life can be. 🌀♥️ Agradecida hasta el alma. x 20 Jul 2026

On my last night in Glacier National Park, I wrote a letter to my younger self that began, “You can’t imagine how good it gets.” 💕 I’m an extrovert and a herd animal to my core. I’m happiest with my people and loove sharing experiences with others, including, for most of my adult life, a partner. It took me a long, long time to figure out how to also enjoy myself on my own, and the week I spent in the wilds of Montana (on a complete whim!) felt like the culmination of years of work, trusting in my ability to take care of myself in any situation and enjoy my own company. Over the course of my week, I had a run-in with a grizzly on the trail, cooked beautiful meals outside, and pushed my tired legs up trail after stunning trail. All week, the words “wildly happy” kept coming to mind. I felt completely consumed by joy, filled with gratitude. I guess what I want to share here is that sometimes the most unexpected, terrible thing can happen, but from it, you might someday find yourself at 34 at the edge of an alpine crystal-blue lake, or in the van you bought after a decade of saving. It’s worth taking a beat to acknowledge these moments of total beauty. Beyond humbled, grateful, happy (and apparently, sappy). ♥️ 05 Jul 2026

No plans to move back, but don’t think I wasn’t tempted 🍊💫 beyond grateful for these magical humans and this beautiful place 01 Mar 2026
