Attention

By: Gabriela Yareliz Pay attention to the details and the little things. The little things are never little. That is why they matter so much.

By: Gabriela Yareliz The NY Rangers had a strong and consistent losing streak in 2024. It looks like we are finally leaving that behind. You know who didn’t look like he was losing with the NY Rangers? Forward Vincent Trocheck. Someone make this man captain already. The team has no official leadership, and I amContinue reading “Captain”

Baseline

By: Gabriela Yareliz We are often very intentional about how we speak to others. What we often forget is that the baseline that truly determines this and also our choices is how we speak to ourselves. When was the last time we reflected on how we speak to ourselves? Is it harsh? Is it kind?Continue reading “Baseline”

The Future You

“There are people who love you for who you are but not for who you will be.” Erwin McManus By: Gabriela Yareliz McManus’ quote reminds us that some relationships are temporary.

Santa Ana

By: Gabriela Yareliz Very little else has our attention— all eyes on the LA fires. (Unless you are the president, Gavin Newsom and Mayor Bass).

November 2024 Favorites

Guys, how are we already in December? So much happened in November. I went to Pottery Barn to see their Christmas decor, and it was truly magical. I got stranded by my trains way too many times.

October 2024 Favorites

MANNA Food Bank and Samaritan’s Purse were my favorite on-the-ground helpers. People in the affected regions still need our help.
