Whether it was a post from her blog, an Instagram post, TikTok, Youtube video or on an American Airlines flight, most people have come across Taylor Tippett. In case one doesn\u2019t know, Tippett is in her mid to late 20\u2019s, recently married, a bookworm, thrift store connoisseur and an outgoing flight attendant based out of Los Angeles, California. She is also one of the first successful influencers that has not let fame cross her mind.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Tippett published her book, \u201cWords from the Window Seat: The Everyday Magic of Kindness, Courage, and Being Your True Self,\u201d on Oct. 12, 2021.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

She started the book by introducing her project; Tippett wanted to find a way to spread kindness to the next passengers joining the aircraft, her followers and to act as a reminder for herself. She wrote a simple note, reading \u201cbe kind to yourself,\u201d and taped it up on a passenger window, snapped a picture and posted it. She went on to paste many notes with affirmations, reminders for self love and words to help during a hard time as well as things to reflect on.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Tippett starts each chapter with a doodle of one of the notes that she has pasted on an airplane window. Each note segues into a story from her childhood, a problem that she\u2019s learned from, her travels, her blogging\/influencer journey and how Jesus has helped her along the way. A few notes included in her book are \u201cremember your courage,\u201d \u201cgrow BETTER because of hurt,\u201d \u201cyou don\u2019t have to be fully fixed to live fully free,\u201d \u201cyou\u2019re actually wonderful,\u201d\u201calways to love, not to understand,\u201d \u201ccelebrate every victory, big or small\u201d and \u201cyou didn\u2019t WASTE your love, ever.\u201d\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Taylor instructs her readers to take time to heal, find beauty in the ordinary and to spread love among one another and oneself just as Jesus did.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

As a reader, I found myself feeling refreshed, reflecting her words onto my life and shedding a few tears. Her book is full of beauty, heartbreak and wisdom without wasting a single page. I highly recommend purchasing this book to read or give to a friend. It goes for only $10.17 on Amazon.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
