By: Gabriela Yareliz I was listening to Andy Frisella remember the 7/11 Big Grab Dorito bags. (Apparently, the 7/11 social media is fire, and it’s a bunch of cars). The store carries Frisella’s 1st Phorm Energy. While they carry new products, they are a treasure chest for nostalgic snacks. Taco Bell’s Y2K Decades Menu hasContinue reading “Nostalgia Menu”

Character
“It’s not wealth that builds a nation, it’s character.” Erwin McManus
Erasure
By: Gabriela Yareliz Candace Owens led an interesting discussion around the attempted erasure of ancestry. Cue the Cracker Barrel controversy. (Truly one of my favorite places to be. I heavily considered planning a wedding party there). “It’s a spiritual attack on the idea of ancestry. Nothing can be old. Everything must be new. They wantContinue reading “Erasure”

Books
“Books are as essential as breathing. In my experience, when going down for the third time, it was often word-to-word resuscitation that saved the day.” Sarah Ban Breathnach

“Fall in love and stay in love. Explode. Don’t intellectualize. Get passionate about ideas. Cram your head full of images… Stay off the internet and all that crap. Read all the great books.

There is a woman with a visor that extends at least a foot away fromContinue reading “Podcasts of the Week 9/4/25”
Whimsy
“True whimsy cannot be purchased or curated. It is free! It cannot come from someone else or be manufactured. Real, true, pure whimsy comes from your heart and bubbles out!” Jenna O’Brien
The Right Question
By: Gabriela Yareliz I was on a coaching call not long ago, and as a particular issue was being discussed, the coach’s question was: “What does love do next?” You could have heard a pin drop.

How to be Remembered
“I believe, wholeheartedly, that when it comes to caring for people, “chill” won’t cut it. In fact, I think I reject nonchalance in nearly every aspect of my life. Care about things! Big things! Be incredibly curious and deeply interested! Solve real problems! Read, drink, eat, go, do—with muchness! At the end of my life,Continue reading “How to be Remembered”
