By: Gabriela Yareliz There is an elderly Asian couple that rides the morning train with me. The man has a walker with wheels that turns into a seat. He moves slowly. His wife always holds him firmly but gently, and sometimes, kisses his face under his baseball cap. Her arm is always around him. IContinue reading “True Love”

Lessons in Matcha
“The true gift of matcha is the ritual: the quiet, deliberate preparation, the grounding presence of whisking, the mindful act of drinking. It is nourishment for body, mind, and spirit alike.” Candice Kumai By: Gabriela Yareliz We went to the best matcha place in NYC. The place is always a vibe. It’s a different levelContinue reading “Lessons in Matcha”
Hope
“Is anything too hard for the Lord?” Genesis 18:14 I was reading Genesis 18 this week. Today’s sermon was about the same. The underlying theme is hope.

By: Gabriela Yareliz “I always have everything I need.” Edie Wadsworth I heard this thought during coaching, and it made me think— what if we said this to ourselves every day? It’s a statement of faith and gratitude.
Even the Unexpected
By: Gabriela Yareliz I was reading Cara Says It All, by Cara Alwill. She was talking about her upcoming marriage (and she is becoming a stepmom!). Her post was all about “ghosting” your old life. She is leaving NYC and starting a new chapter in Florida. Life often offers us turning points, and we canContinue reading “Even the Unexpected”

Mid-Week Update From AC
“An educated mind cannot be enslaved.” Candace Owens By: Gabriela Yareliz It’s one hundred and a gazillion degrees out. My train has AC, which is nice because my other trains this week felt like they were blowing hot air on us. I quite literally melted into my seat yesterday. This was after my employer shutContinue reading “Mid-Week Update From AC”
Do Hard Things

Below, you will find a post from Alex Ikonn on the key take aways. I love De Sena’s schoolContinue reading “Do Hard Things”
Noise, Despacito
“You need to build a mausoleum in your head with big iron doors so that nobody can get in there except you. You don’t let me in there, you don’t let June in there, you don’t let your manager in there, you don’t let the record company people in there. You have to decide forContinue reading “Noise, Despacito”
