đź’› Be Kind 5: Honoring Our Kindness Warrior, Christie Zimmer

There are people whose generosity gently changes the course of your life. People who lend their gifts to something greater—and in doing so, create tools that touch not just minds, but hearts. Christie Zimmer is one of those rare souls. Through her thoughtful and intuitive journaling practice, she lit the path for Be Kind 5.

Christie’s “Adventures in Journaling” Substack is more than a collection of reflections—it’s a haven for self-discovery and gentle transformation. When we dreamed up Be Kind 5, a guided journal rooted in small acts of kindness, Christie offered her expertise, creativity, and above all, her kindness to help bring that vision to life. With her signature elegance and soulfulness, she designed the original guided journal—the very heart of our movement.

Her pages weren’t just prompts on paper. They became stepping stones toward connection. They sparked moments of kindness between strangers, families, communities. And they reminded us: kindness doesn’t have to be loud to be powerful.

Thank you, Christie, for answering the call with such grace. Thank you for believing in kindness as a force for good. Thank you for showing us that journaling can be both a mirror and a doorway.

May this next chapter of Be Kind 5 continue to ripple outwards, inspired by your compassion and creativity.
