“I’m so excited to partner with Hallmark for the Real Stories collection,” Nichols said. “The beauty of tapping into our sensitivity and empathy is when people are experiencing these positive, encouraging messages they feel seen.”

Originally launched in 2021, the Real Stores line was created to help consumers support their loved ones through a range of real-life experiences that range from difficult to bittersweet and joyful new beginnings, the company said.

Featuring 24 greeting cards and a variety of unique gifts that include a travel mug, easel calendar, cube caddy and tea towel, the Morgan Harper Nichols Real Stories collection also includes cards for everyday life, milestone moments and special occasions.
