Gift guide

Gifts for perfectionists.

The best gift for a perfectionist is permission to rest, wrapped in a joke they will get. Pick something useful and funny that says good enough is gold: a mug for slow mornings, a notebook for messy notes, a game that makes letting go feel like play, like the Flexi! card game.

What is a good gift for a people pleaser?

Something just for them. People pleasers rarely buy for themselves, so a gift with a kind joke reads as permission. The Totally Flawsome Trio and a hand towel that says it out loud both work.

What is a thoughtful gift for someone who is always the strong one?

A year of the Flexi app, so the person who checks on everyone gets a few minutes a day that are only theirs.

Do the gifts ship together?

Each piece is made to order by our makers, so pieces may arrive on different days. Order early for the holidays.
