Hellloooo my summer chickadees, What a week it has been. Here in NYC, we endured the heat wave, legionnaires in the water supply (bless you, UES), The Odyssey premiere (bless you, traffic of the UWS), Canadian wildfire smoke (is the fire punishment for the Canadians killing all those Emus? Kidding— but also not), and lifeContinue reading “This Week’s Favorites 07.18.26”

Parrots Everywhere
By: Gabriela Yareliz I know someone who has zero engagement with life. They just take what you say or information you drop and parrot it to the next person to appear competent. These types of people were definitely the kids who cheated off of other kids in school. This person kept name dropping books. TheyContinue reading “Parrots Everywhere”
This Week’s Favorites 07.11.26
By: Gabriela Yareliz I eventually made it home from Nashville. I took a flight from hell with little-to-no AC again (JetBlue), trapped in a seat with parents who had zero control over their children. (And these were not babies— we understand babies). The mom kept shrieking next to me, “MOMMY IS DOING HER BESTTTTT!” IContinue reading “This Week’s Favorites 07.11.26”
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.

Some Thursday Inspiration
“Time is a liar. Stop letting the calendar tell you what’s possible. It doesn’t know who you are. It has no clue what’s still alive for you. Culture measures age in years. It tells us to grow older and grow up. To be reasonable. To trade aliveness for safety. But maturity is not measured byContinue reading “Some Thursday Inspiration”

“April, the angel of the months.” Vita Sackville-West By: Gabriela Yareliz Thank God March is over. That is all I can say. March was a month that felt a lot like drowning. It’s another day in another week, but when we start a new month, I picture a hand turning a page into a nextContinue reading “This Week’s Favorites (4.1.26)”
I’m Learning to Breathe
By: Gabriela Yareliz We’ve all had moments of anxiety, panic and/or pain. Sometimes, it can feel like walls are closing in on us. Or maybe, it feels like a knife is stabbing us in the pelvis. At times, we can leave a present circumstance and reset (best case scenario). There have been times where IContinue reading “I’m Learning to Breathe”
This Week’s Favs 3.12.26
By: Gabriela Yareliz This week, we went from 60F to 39F. It’s literally raining/snowing outside. The weather is wild. My torso is less on fire thanks to a plantain oil tincture I made. This stuff works. March feels so busy, and I haven’t even gotten to the taxes part of the to-do list. My bodyContinue reading “This Week’s Favs 3.12.26”
