| |  | | | Our team is thankful for… | "I am most thankful for the amazing group of friends and family who lifted me and my family up after our home was destroyed by Hurricane Helene. The outpouring of love, support, and donations was truly something to behold and was also a vital piece of our healing process in getting us through the awful experience. I was starkly reminded that people and loved ones are what matter most in life, not accumulated belongings and possessions, and I'm thankful my family is all safe and sound."
— Brett Johnson, lifecycle operations manager | "I've become much more comfortable saying 'no' to things that will really burn a hole through my savings. I'm easily susceptible to FOMO pressure — a tropical vacation abroad in the middle of winter sounds idyllic! But I've been prioritizing my financial well-being for my peace of mind. I've felt comfortable turning plans down if it means I feel more secure in my spending habits."
— Kenny Thapoung, managing newsletter editor | "This year, I'm most thankful for my support system. I spent a few months as a new mom without my spouse because he was away at military training, but I still felt supported by my in-laws, friends, and co-workers."
— Aline (Ren) Dias, editor | "I'm so grateful to live in a place where the temperature rarely goes above 75 degrees. There's no need for an air conditioner, and it's never too hot to go outside. It gets hotter every year, but for the time being at least, it feels like a temperate little haven."
— Ginger Wojcik, newsletter editor | "Family and friends! I lost two grandparents this year, so making space for grief but also prioritizing important relationships because life is too short."
— Kristen Hom, photo editor | "This might sound cliche, but I'm truly thankful for my friends! I moved across the country about a year ago and have been so lucky to build a great new community in just a year. It's amazing to look back and see how far I've come. My new friends have made this city feel like home!"
— Marissa Benson, senior lifecycle marketing associate | "I'm thankful for a lot of things this year, but in particular, I'm really thankful that my loved ones and I are healthy and safe from the crazy world around us and that I'm privileged enough to be able to afford to travel as often as I do! I'm heading to Greece tomorrow!"
— Arushi Garg, performance marketing associate | | | | | | | | | Grateful for good sleep | | | | | | |  | | Puffy Lux Mattress | I've been on a quest to create the ultimate bedroom sanctuary for 3 years, and that journey has involved testing four different mattresses (and countless other products). When Puffy offered to send me this mattress to try for free, I was *so* excited. Healthline ranked Lux as one of the best mattresses for back pain in 2024, and I'm chronically achy. After sleeping on it for the past 3 months, I can confidently say that I feel relief in my back and shoulders. My only complaint is that I don't want to get out of bed in the mornings because I'm too cozy.
If you like a medium-firm feel, consider trying this mattress! It comes with a high price tag, but Puffy offers a lifetime warranty and a 101-night sleep trial to ensure you love it. | | | Every product we recommend has gone through either Healthline's or Optum Store's vetting processes.
