In addition to our campaign this week we want to do more. For the month of April RingHero will donate 2% of gross sales to Direct Relief.

“Direct Relief is coordinating with public health authorities, nonprofit organizations and businesses in the U.S. and globally to provide personal protective equipment and essential medical items to health workers responding to coronavirus (COVID-19). In the U.S., Direct Relief is delivering protective masks – along with exam gloves, isolations gowns, and other protective gear to healthcare organizations across the country.”

Thank you for being part of our squad, and remember we are all in this together. Sending well wishes and healthy vibes to you and your family.

Physical not Social Distancing

March 20, 2020

Instead of calling it social distancing we like physical distancing, we are making every effort to stay close to our community and support each other virtually. This is definitely a strange time, we don’t know what’s happening and our normal routines are long gone. How are you all handling this homebound lifestyle we’ve been thrown into?

Valentine’s Day Last Minute Gift Ideas

February 10, 2020

How is it already Valentine’s Day?? We are still in recovery mode from the holidays... Since we are personally scrambling for some last minute gift ideas for all the loves in our lives we thought why not share our top gift ideas to save you time on your own present hunt!

We love gifting plants, especially tough plants that don’t need a lot of water or sunlight like this sturdy Boco plant. Added bonus this plant helps purify the air, perfect for his room! A Wishbead Intention Bracelet is a thoughtful gift with a purpose. Choose from black lava rock (to keep one grounded) or tiger’s eye (to inspire confidence) and help your love stay focused on a goal. Pamper your man with safe skin care from the Counterman Beard Regimen. Set includes a cleanser, toner pads, face lotion, beard oil.

Give her some glitz and glam with a beautiful pair of crawler earrings from Margaret Elizabeth. Or an adorable Hoya Heart plant and at only $28 you should probably scoop one up for yourself too! A monogrammed vanity case is perfect for makeup and toiletries, for travel or for the gym.

Give your kids the perfect little I love you gift with a succulent potted in a unicorn from UrbanStem. A surprise delivery for your kids will be so fun and delicious with an Edible Arrangement to share. Our last gift idea is a Target gift card, sounds silly right? Depending on the children's ages this is a dream! A $10 or $15 gift card was magical for my 6 year olds birthday this year. The ability to have their OWN card and pick out their OWN toy was incredible. Save it for a rainy/snowy day since we personally spent about 2 hours in the Target toy section that day.

Happy Valentine’s Day from all of us at RingHero! (kiss emoji)

Making travel plans for 2020? Read this first!

February 01, 2020

With a fresh start to 2020 we’ve sat down and planned out our travel for the year. I know seems a little crazy right, but we love to travel and explore new cities with and without our kids and it takes planning.

It’s NOT a Resolution it’s a Realization

December 31, 2019

Oh New Year’s resolutions… we have mixed feelings about setting, keeping, and all things resolutions. So when we saw it described as a Realization not a Resolution we were all for it!

As we close out the year at RingHero both professionally and personally we reflect and reset. We asked each partner at RingHero for their view on 2020:

Niki’s 2020 Realization: SLOW DOWN and BE THOUGHTFUL. “Normally, I go through my various pillars (or categories) and write down goals (for example, travel: plan ski trip; or health: run a 10k - ha, not gonna happen!). This year, I'll likely still do that because I love my lists and goals but an overarching theme I want to carry through in 2020 is to slow down and be thoughtful. I totally see now when successful people talk about carving out an hour or so a week to be thoughtful, journal, write kind cards, emails, etc, meditate. And by successful people, I mean CEOs who write about this in Forbes articles. Life has a way of spiraling out of control and I want to take the reins back in 2020. I have felt overrun and overworked and running from one event to the next (always late) but with feeling unconnected to it. I want to work on this year connecting to people more and taking the time to engage.”

Jessie’s 2020 Realization: PRESENCE and PURPOSE. “This past year brought so much change for my family (amazing and wonderful change!). We are finally getting settled and our routine is falling into place. My realization for 2020 is to fully commit and be present through each part of my day. Allowing me to give 100% attention in that particular moment for my family, for my business and for myself. To stay on track and focus throughout the day I’ll set an alarm on my phone every few hours and remind myself “Be Present Jessie”. My secondary focus for 2020 will be purpose - making choices that bring joy and purpose in my life and those around me. I guess you could call it a “does this bring me joy?” mantra ~ thanks Marie Kondo. Asking this question will help me prioritize what’s really important and weed out the rest. Cheers to 2020 and your best year yet!”

Jessica’s 2020 Realization: “To be totally authentic and honest I’m not one for resolutions; I don’t set them when New Years comes around each year. I prefer to set goals throughout the year (a few of my goals from last year were celery detox, FFactor, and run a 10k). Excited to see what’s in store this year!

Here’s a fun exercise for the new year:

Wishing you and your family a safe, happy and healthy New Year ~ cheers to an amazing 2020.

Giving Tuesday - 10% of profits donated 12/2 - 12/6!

December 03, 2019

Since today is Giving Tuesday we want to highlight 3 amazing charities that are unique and special to each of our founders. From 12/2 through 12/6 we’ll be donating 10% of our profits to these charities.

The Life Raft Group In January 2011, Jessica's father was diagnosed with a very rare cancer called GIST.Gastrointestinal stromal tumor (GIST) is found in the digestive tract that does not attract enough research interest either from government or the pharmaceutical industry. With little information and a very scary diagnosis, her family was very happy to find The Life Raft Group (TLRG) which sole purpose is to cure GIST and to help those living with it until then. To do this, the Life Raft Group focuses on three key areas: research, patient support & education, and advocacy, which lay the foundation of their mission to ensure the survival of GIST patients through a comprehensive approach connecting individual patients’ needs, the worldwide community of GIST advocates and the global health and research environment. Nearly 9 years later, Jessica's father is still showing No Evidence of Disease (NED) during his regular scans and being fully supported by TLRG and it's dedicated community every step of the way.

Jackson Chance Foundation was founded by an incredible family with an even more incredible son named Jackson. Jackson was born on 11.11.11 and lived his entire life in the NICU. Jackson passed away after 10 short months. While his family spent everyday in the hospital with him they noticed many families did not have the resources to do the same. Many families were unable to afford the transportation costs. Visiting a baby in the NICU is as essential for their recovery as medical treatment. Carrie and her husband Terry started Jackson Chance Foundation so parents could visit their babies in the NICU without the financial burden of parking. Carrie has now been named “The Parking Fairy”.

Jessie’s family became involved with Jackson Chance Foundation when her twin boys were born prematurely and spent almost 3 months in the NICU. Their parking fees would have been close to $3,000 in the end without the support of the NICU transportation program. Annually, JCF provides more than 63,000 days of parking to over 1,200 NICU families. Every $300 raised provides one monthly parking pass. The transportation program is available at Ann & Robert H. Lurie Children’s Hospital of Chicago and Northwestern Medicine Prentice Women’s Hospital. They continue to grow and spread their reach to support more NICU families.

Big Brothers Big Sisters of Chicago creates and supports one-to-one mentoring relationships that ignite the power and promise of youth. This organization is so special to Niki having been a part of it for the past 10 years.

Niki began my involvement back in 2009 on the Leadership Board; served as Funds Development co-chair from 2012-2014 raising over $400,000. Starting an annual gala for the young professional network & supporters of Big Brothers Big Sisters was like planning her wedding all over again! Only this time for a bigger and better reason to celebrate!

Along with a colleague, Niki started the Corporate site-based program at her HQ for her day job, currently in its 6th consecutive year. The program matches 20 Bigs and Littles and meets on a bi-weekly basis; it fosters growth, enhances confidence, they work on homework and talk about the future. Niki was a Big mentor for 3 of these years before her little went off to college. She taught her to floss and Niki taught her to stick with a sport, among many other things.
