June 2024 Favorites

Hello friends, What a month. We lived intensely in June, and it flew by. This month started with a popping party in Staten Island. It was a blast. I met the incredible Tina Forte and Scott Lobaido out there. I got nostalgic and remembered Jell-o, and there were like thirty photos of Jell-o on myContinue reading “June 2024 Favorites”

The Athletes

By: Gabriela Yareliz I got dark circles under my eyes from all these hockey playoff games. I have loved every minute of it. It has been so much fun watching the NY Rangers. They made it to the Eastern Conference Finals, and their season ended when they were defeated by the incredible Florida Panthers. IContinue reading “The Athletes”

May 2024 Favorites

By: Gabriela Yareliz May– my favorite month. It is always action-packed with birthdays and holidays. What is not to love? I got to attend my new employer’s commencement ceremony in my full regalia, which was nostalgic. I made a new work bestie. I started reading Seduction by Robert Greene, and it is gold. (All ofContinue reading “May 2024 Favorites”

Covered

By: Gabriela Yareliz Every day, we have the opportunity to pray over people and quite literally change the course of their lives. See, prayer gives God and heavenly angels the permission to intervene in lives where maybe that person has closed the door to it (or they aren’t intentionally seeking it). Our requests are honored.Continue reading “Covered”

Morning Trains

By: Gabriela Yareliz Here we are speeding toward the Times Square train station, which is a non-stop circus. Each corner curiously serves a different genre of music. I heard an old black man sing “Stand By Me,” better than the original (as I ran past him); a man singing and dancing salsa with an enviableContinue reading “Morning Trains”

It was a fun one! The month started with an eclipse that brought all business to a (sanctioned)Continue reading “April 2024 Favorites”

The Iconoclast Russell Brand

“Isn’t the point of religion for us to access an aspect of ourself that is connected to a force that allows us to discern moral truths that enable us to live well, materially? To have relationships with one another that are guided by principles other than spite, vengeance and vendetta. And ultimately, the most powerfulContinue reading “The Iconoclast Russell Brand”

The Unchangeable Drive for Progress

By: Gabriela Yareliz Our coaching session on the human intrinsic of “progress” was incredible, and I wanted to share the beautiful thoughts I gathered from this session from the group and from Erwin McManus: -Every human has a need for progress. -“Make sure you have some area in your life where you are taking controlContinue reading “The Unchangeable Drive for Progress”

The Train Awards

By: Gabriela Yareliz There we were. All of us in the moving train car. A small bullet of speed moving underground (much too slow). All of us like shards of glass soon to be dispersed into a million little directions, launched into our day. But before that, we are sharing space. We are avoiding eyeContinue reading “The Train Awards”

You are Invited

By: Gabriela Yareliz “You are not meant to be a house cat. You were meant to be bold, adventurous and to chase something. You were meant to be a lion. Stop sitting around living in safety, comfort and fear. Stop being a house cat. Be the lion you are and go after the life youContinue reading “You are Invited”
