By: Gabriela Yareliz I was reflecting the other day— sometimes we look at the past or “trauma”, and we think about everything it left us without. Everything we didn’t have or receive.

I loved the words from Michael Easter below.
The Feminine Wiring
By: Gabriela Yareliz I am on a train that says “No Service.” So far, it’s in service. Shannon Ford was on the TSC Podcast talking about pregnancy, recently. It was an awesome podcast. Lauryn Bosstick, the host, was also pregnant in these past few months; they talked about stuff I haven’t heard about. My favoriteContinue reading “The Feminine Wiring”
The Machine

Florida Forever
By: Gabriela Yareliz The Florida Panthers are back-to-back Stanley Cup champions. I told you guys, they are undeniable. One of the TNT commentators (I think it was Lundqvist) said this team is a masterclass in teamwork and the game of hockey. They are. This team is fierce. Their coach— iconic. Underlying everything is their belief.Continue reading “Florida Forever”
