A Journey to Discover Twinkle Moments

A Journey to Discover Twinkle Moments

How I Overcame Life’s Challenges and Found Inspiration to Start My Business

A Simple Joy in Everyday Moments

Curling up under a cozy blanket while listening to the sound of rain, the satisfaction of placing a new decoration in just the right spot, the clean and refreshing feel of a decluttered countertop, or the fragrant aroma of freshly baked cookies cooling on the counter.

Our daily lives are filled with these small, twinkling moments. Yet in the hustle and bustle of everyday life, we often overlook them. I know I did, for quite a while.

 

From a Fast-Paced Career to a Quiet Home Life

In my 20s and 30s in Korea, my life revolved around work—busy days spent promoting and marketing well-known brands. While I loved my job, the relentless workload left little room for balance or joy in the small things. I barely had time to pause and savor life’s simple pleasures.

Everything changed when I met my husband and moved to Texas. Marriage, parenting, and running a household were entirely new challenges for me. But the transition to being a full-time homemaker, without tangible rewards or recognition, eventually left me feeling drained. No matter how hard I tried, I felt like I was spinning my wheels, losing my sense of purpose and joy.

I spent my early 30s here, working tirelessly in marketing for big-name brands. While I loved the energy and excitement, the long hours often left me feeling drained.

Rediscovering Balance and Sparkle in Life

One day, however, everything shifted. I was invited to a neighbor’s house for tea. The warmth and harmony of her home, coupled with our heartfelt conversation, sparked something in me. Inspired, I decided to take small steps in my own home—starting with one corner at a time. Slowly but surely, I began organizing, decorating, and creating a space that felt uniquely mine.

Those small changes had a big impact. They brought back a sense of energy and joy to my life. I started noticing the "twinkle moments" again.

Let’s Find Twinkle Moments Together

That’s when I realized: our lives can be enriched by the little things—small changes that help us rediscover balance and joy. A well-organized space, a soothing fragrance, or a seasonal decoration can transform not just our homes, but our hearts as well.

This personal journey is what led me to create Twinkle Moment. My goal is to share the happiness I’ve found in these small, everyday moments—tidying up, decorating, and bringing balance back into life—with others.

This newsletter is a space to embark on that journey together. Let’s discover our own "Twinkle Moments" each day and brighten our lives with gratitude and joy. Together, we’ll uncover the beauty of life’s small but radiant treasures.

Warm wishes,
