This quote made me smile. You know what I have been craving? Sort of stepping away from a lot of the noise of programs and courses and just doing handstands against the wall. I just want a 40-minute Pilates session and a candle lit. I am also craving autumn. Or maybe, I have depleted myContinue reading “Observations from the Underground”

Mid-Week Update From AC
“An educated mind cannot be enslaved.” Candace Owens By: Gabriela Yareliz It’s one hundred and a gazillion degrees out. My train has AC, which is nice because my other trains this week felt like they were blowing hot air on us. I quite literally melted into my seat yesterday. This was after my employer shutContinue reading “Mid-Week Update From AC”
Growing Up
Thinking about this.
The Relationship Compass
“How you were treated as a child is how you treat yourself as an adult.” Ida Santana By: Gabriela Yareliz I have been thinking a lot about this. It is a fact that can help you read the room, and it can also help you read the person staring back at you in the mirror.Continue reading “The Relationship Compass”
Responsibility

Noise, Despacito
“You need to build a mausoleum in your head with big iron doors so that nobody can get in there except you.

You have to decide forContinue reading “Noise, Despacito”

For playing carritos or those mini Barbies from the McDonalds happy meals on the couch for hours. Thank you for the immense trust and independence youContinue reading “Happy Birthday, Ma”
—But What is Your Dream?
By: Gabriela Yareliz It was a summer night, and the sun was still shining in the Upper West Side. I was impressed by how bright it was and how tired I felt. I had been looped into a late evening meeting at work and told I could take a car home (which I was gratefulContinue reading “—But What is Your Dream?”
What Abundance Tells Us
By: Gabriela Yareliz If you are rushing around or trying to kill fifteen birds with one stone— this PSA is for you. And you are not alone. I get infinitely frustrated when things unfold inefficiently. I love change. I love speed. I love maximizing. Call it a syndrome from childhood. Sometimes, we need to rememberContinue reading “What Abundance Tells Us”
