“Life is filled with all kinds of responsibiliti “Life is filled with all kinds of responsibilities and stresses, and wellness is the way to take care of them. One of my influences and inspirations was to create a space for women because I understand how — as caregivers and providers for loved ones, as mothers, often with full-time jobs and dealing with hormonal changes — we are overwhelmed with the tension, pressure and stress in our lives. We need to find a safe space and community of like-minded people where we go to recharge our batteries. I want @renatasorganics Skincare & Spa to be that place where you can do that before going back out into the world.” — Renata Karkut Read the full spotlight at TheRealParkRidge.com
One of the nearly 100 businesses you can find The One of the nearly 100 businesses you can find The Real Park Ridge in the near NW burbs is @offthewallcafepr who happens to make one of the best lattes around… not to mention some mighty fine sandwiches and breakfast creations. Did you also know we add at least 1-2 USPS home delivery routes with every issue? Tripling our circulation in less than five years ain’t easy, but it’s all been worth it.

Just some of the helpful local opinions from @lisa Just some of the helpful local opinions from @lisakay_creative in the Park Ridge Insider section of our big winter issue: “ @ziassocial in nearby Norwood Park has an amazing brunch where you can also catch the games on Sundays.” “Friends recently introduced me to @pinesroompr — who knew Park Ridge had its very own speakeasy? The cozy, candlelit atmosphere and amazing drinks make it a win-win. As is the case with any good speakeasy, it is a tight place, so try to get there early to get a seat.” “ @centeredclaycollective is a ceramic studio that offers classes, after-school workshops and a really unique date-night experience. I have been here with friends, and we had such a good time getting creative. There is something about getting tactile with the clay that makes you feel like a kid again. I plan to go back for a fun date night soon (everyone remembers the movie Ghost!).” Read the spotlight at TheRealParkRidge.com
