Fall Color Palettes

Share the goods.

We can’t contain ourselves anymore. We LOVE fall, including the scarves, cozy sweaters, falling leaves, crisp autumn air, spiked apple cider and plaid…all the plaid.
We’ll even drive by an apple orchard once in a while and wave to the people standing in line for hours to grab those doughnuts.
Our most favorite part of fall is all the colors. There’s a reason we live in a state with four seasons…because they are damn magical.
Here are our fall color palettes.

#1 Fall Hike

We mean, look at that doggo’s face! He loves fall, too! Fall Hike captures all the lovely colors we Michiganders see traversing the many countless park trails. Is there anything better than leaves crunching beneath your feet while you inhale the smell of wet foliage? We highly encourage you to also incorporate all of these colors into your wardrobe. We think you know what we’ll be doing.

#2 Friday Night Lights

Is there anything better than tailgating (with a mask) before a Friday football game? There is just something magical about setting up in a parking lot with your tailgate down, flipping burgers on the grill, sipping Truly in your camping chairs, and surrounding yourself with the shouts of slightly buzzed people over an overly competitive cornhole game.
Us midwesterners take football very seriously. So, pack up your cooler, plaid blanket, and stocking cap, cozy up in the stands, and appreciate this amazing color palette encompassing all things Friday Night Lights.

#3 Halloween Party


If you don’t have at least 104 fall scented candles burning at once, what are you even doing with your life? Halloween may be canceled this year, but that doesn’t mean you can’t pull together a costume, set up a Zoom call with friends, string some twinkle lights and throw in a black light to capture that perfect ghoulish purple glow.
We’re officially declaring Halloween 2020 the day we all watch spooky movies and make ourselves sick on candy we can’t hand out. We’ll be hosting a Halloween Party of one. Don’t miss the bold, bright and fun colors of this color palette due to a lack of creativity.
P.S. If you haven’t watched Hocus Pocus at least 15 times over the course of Halloween, you really don’t know how to celebrate anyhow.
This year’s palettes are a little different than in the past, and that’s because this is a crazy year. Let us know what you think about our pics! We can even set up a fall-themed Zoom call to talk about them.

Something on Your Mind?

We had some fun in the office this week and asked some of the 8THIRTYFOUR team what “square up” means.

Surprisingly, the Gen Z of the group got it, but one of our Gen X’s did not (not saying any names…)

How do you “square up”?

We love Dr. Karen May’s mission.

What if we taught our daughters AND our sons about women’s health, hormones, and pregnancy? Not as a whispered “talk” or a one-time awkward conversation. Just normal dinner-table stuff.

The girls deserve to know what’s coming (perimenopause shouldn’t be a surprise party nobody wanted). And the boys? They’ll be partners, dads, coworkers, and bosses to women going through all of it.

Thank you, Dr. May, for sharing your best practices to keep the women’s health conversation going at our Uncomfortable Conversations | The Pause event.
Showing up to an interview with an iced coffee? Not the move… unless it’s for @bodespeaks

… and we wouldn’t have it any other way.

Meet Joey, one of @bodespeaks’ nine rescues and 8THIRTYFOUR’s self-appointed office manager. She’ll happily accept head pats and belly rubs, but make no mistake: she’s always watching.
The Women’s Owners Network (WON) is built for smaller businesses that are ready for the next level and need the right support to get there, whatever that looks like.

The six-month program combines the practical side of business with the emotional side. Participants work on leadership, finance, operations, and access to capital. They also get structured support for isolation, emotional volatility, and decision fatigue that come with owning a business.

WON is designed by entrepreneurs who have been there. They know that lasting business growth depends on personal growth and the resilience it takes to keep going.

This program gives women business owners thoughtful, well-rounded support to reach their next chapter, however they define it.

Who is WON built for?
Women founders who are in the thick of it and are:

- Past the idea stage: actively generating revenue and serving customers
- Committed to growth: ready to invest six months in the work, starting in November
