By: Gabriela Yareliz I loved this interview and conversation between Emma Grede and Victoria Beckham. Hilariously (and very on-brand), I was wearing VB Beauty eyeliner while listening. We all wanted to be Posh Spice on the playground in the 2nd grade.

Sunrise Teacher
Sometimes, our greatest teachers are places. By: Gabriela Yareliz I was reading Cleo Wade’s newsletter about her new book launch, In a World of Sunrises, and she said: “New Orleans has been my greatest teacher in resilience. The wisdom of this city flows through many pages of this book.” It made me think of Florida.Continue reading “Sunrise Teacher”
Discipline
“That’s why optimism is a discipline. It takes discipline to see the good when things are going bad. It takes discipline to see beauty in the midst of tragedy. It takes discipline to see the best in people when they let us down. It takes discipline to forgive when the person does not deserve it.Continue reading “Discipline”
Ignore Them All
“Nobody tells you this: No matter how you choose to live, people will tell you that you’re doing it wrong. Wrong priorities. Wrong work. Wrong relationships. Wrong whatever. Your entire life will change the moment you learn to smile, nod, and ignore every single one of them.” Sahil Bloom
A Personal Choice
This is an important thing to remember and something I keep reminding myself of.
Maxine’s ABCs
By: Gabriela Yareliz Have you been crafting, scheming and plotting, lately? (And while these words carry a negative connotation, I don’t mean them negatively or involving deceit.

Restaurant Jordnær

My husband and I like to watch these chef videos, and this is probably the coolest kitchen and culture I have seen so far. This chef’s life is quite remarkable,Continue reading “Restaurant Jordnær”
This Week’s Favs 05.01.26
By: Gabriela Yareliz It’s 2004 in my brain. My birthday is days away, and I am feeling nostalgic. I bought Bubbilicious watermelon gum 🍉. I saw the Laguna Beach reunion happened, and went back to old clips of the show. All the shows I wasn’t allowed to watch are on my mind, ha. Ahh theContinue reading “This Week’s Favs 05.01.26”
Strangers
By: Gabriela Yareliz What happens when you realize the person you (thought you) knew the best is a completely different person than you imagined? If you have been divorced or if you are a child of divorce, you know this can happen, and happen unexpectedly. Rumor has it, Strangers is on backorder. When was theContinue reading “Strangers”
A To Do List by Rainier Wylde
“Get out in it. Wander. Be lost. Eat real food. Order the steak this time instead of the salad. Or both, why choose? Drink the expensive bubbly. Don’t save it. Light a flare, hold it up for everyone to see. Get outside. Sink your feet into the mud. Touch the sky. Call the friends youContinue reading “A To Do List by Rainier Wylde”
