THE STORY BEHIND SOTAVENT • A little piece of the Mediterranean, right here in Columbus.

Meet Sotavent Columbus, where founders Josep + Nicki bring together Mediterranean roots, Ohio ties, sustainable European brands and local makers.

Consider this your sign to stop in, meet them and, of course, say hi to their puppy Lucie, who is always the star of the show!

BEHIND THE GUIDE • A few moments from behind the scenes of bringing our pages to life. From getting to know the businesses we feature and dreaming up creative concepts together, to photoshoots and all the little details in between, there’s so much that happens before a Guide makes it into your hands.

Each page becomes a small piece of Columbus captured in print. We love getting to bring it all together into a living publication that celebrates local in such a timeless, tangible way.

COTTON SUGAR CO. • You may have seen this local cotton candy cart around Columbus, but meet the woman behind it all. Stephanie’s love for sweet treats, a good party and creating that unforgettable “wow factor” came together to create Cotton Sugar Co. (Steph) - Columbus cotton candy cart!.

What started with one cart has grown into a recognizable part of events and stadium experiences across Columbus, all while Stephanie continues dreaming up new flavors, toppings and creations, personally mixing each flavor along the way.

Watch the cotton candy spin fresh by booking a cart for your own event, or catch Cotton Sugar Co. containers freshly made for Columbus Crew matches and Columbus Clippers games. Follow Cotton Sugar Co. (Steph) - Columbus cotton candy cart! to see where they pop up next! 🩵

BACK TO SCHOOL • Happy first day of school, ! 🍎

Since 1898, Columbus School for Girls has been educating and empowering generations of girls, beginning with a vision for an academically rigorous, college-preparatory education at a time when that opportunity looked very different for young women.

More than 125 years later, we love seeing that legacy continue right here in Columbus. Wishing the students, families, faculty and staff a wonderful year ahead! 💙

AND A COMMUNITY • From Columbus to communities across the country, each guide is locally owned, locally curated and part of a national network celebrating the best of local.

Because every guide is really about celebrating its city through an editorial lens, while highlighting the people making an impact on our communities. The business owners, creatives, leaders, and entrepreneurs. Across every industry, we’re so grateful to get to champion you and showcase your work.

We love being asked, “Where should I go for this?” or “I’m looking for…” because getting to connect people with the businesses and people we believe in is such a big part of what this is all about. We love getting to share the best of Columbus, and it’s an honor to put together such a tangible, beautiful, living publication that continues to connect people with local businesses long after it’s printed.

Can’t wait for Volume 11. Xoxo, Dara 🩷

BEHIND THE ADJUSTMENT • Feeling your best starts with understanding the whole picture.

Celebrating 23 years, Dr. Heather and Dr. Troy Walker of Columbus Chiropractor + Holistic Wellness Center have been caring for the Columbus community with an approach that goes far beyond chiropractic adjustments.

From chiropractic care and massage to acupuncture, functional nutrition, infrared sauna and more, their Grandview practice is centered around getting to know each patient, understanding what their body needs and creating a personalized path forward.

But behind the services is the story of a husband-and-wife team, the practice they’ve built together and the philosophy that has guided Advanced Wellness for more than two decades.

We’re taking you behind the adjustment in our latest local editorial. Head to the link in bio to read Aligned for Life: Behind the Adjustment at Advanced Wellness and get to know the people and approach behind this longtime Columbus practice.

And if your wedding was months or even years ago, it’s not too late. Because what happens after the “I do” deserves a little thought, too. ✨
