By: Gabriela Yareliz “I always have everything I need.” Edie Wadsworth I heard this thought during coaching, and it made me think— what if we said this to ourselves every day? It’s a statement of faith and gratitude.

Even the Unexpected
By: Gabriela Yareliz I was reading Cara Says It All, by Cara Alwill. She was talking about her upcoming marriage (and she is becoming a stepmom!). Her post was all about “ghosting” your old life. She is leaving NYC and starting a new chapter in Florida. Life often offers us turning points, and we canContinue reading “Even the Unexpected”
Interference
“I had 35 analog years to develop my taste without interference. I carried quarters for payphones. I wrote directions on napkins. I discovered music through borrowed CDs and late-night television, not through playlists that knew what I wanted before I did. I fell in love with movies before they became content, with art before itContinue reading “Interference”
A Little Bit of Nina Simone
By: Gabriela Yareliz Another Monday underground. I am reflecting on the beautiful lunch I have in my bag of vegetables and salmon made by my husband. Grateful. I listen to a podcast about burnt out women whose husbands do nothing and then, they wonder why their wives are raging women— I thank my lucky starsContinue reading “A Little Bit of Nina Simone”
August
By: Gabriela Yareliz August. A time of transition. The true end and beginning of the year. This time always makes me think of wooden pencils, corduroy, and lined paper with the little holes. I saw somewhere that this autumn is expected to be cooler than most in NYC. August, while still officially summer, blurs intoContinue reading “August”

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”
Do Hard Things
“You have to have a day on the calendar that scares the sh*t out of you.” Joe De Sena I was enthralled by the conversation between Alex Ikonn and Joe De Sena. Listen to it here. Below, you will find a post from Alex Ikonn on the key take aways. I love De Sena’s schoolContinue reading “Do Hard Things”
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 don’t let me in there, you don’t let June in there, you don’t let your manager in there, you don’t let the record company people in there. You have to decide forContinue reading “Noise, Despacito”
—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”
