By: Gabriela Yareliz We’ve reached the end of October. The days start in the low 50s and end in the 70s. So hard to dress. I sweat through two jackets this week. I know I am always talking about sweating, but I don’t think I have sweat this much in my life like this year.Continue reading “This Week’s Favorites 10.24.26”

Wisdom from Tracy Tutor
Because sometimes you need to fight like a girl. By: Gabriela Yareliz I enjoyed Tracy Tutor’s Fear is Just a Four-Letter Word. It’s a great book on how to work with difficult people and succeed in difficult situations. I never saw her on reality TV and yet somehow, I landed in her orbit.

Lessons from Unburdened
By: Gabriela Yareliz I loved Dorit Kemsley’s book, Unburdened. These were some highlights for me: “Resilience without boundaries can quietly become self-punishment.

Soul Cure

This Week’s Favorites 10.2.26
The first favorites of October. This morning, I walked a good 15 minutes to a coffee shop that serves turmeric lattes, only to arrive and see it was closed even though according to Google and the sign on the door, they should have been open already for an hour. That was the vibe this week.Continue reading “This Week’s Favorites 10.2.26”
Hi! Hi!
From my throne of crumpled tissues. By: Gabriela Yareliz Greetings from the couch, where I sit like a queen surrounded by tissues. It has been a sniffly one. I am slowly regaining my ability to breathe through my nose. My nose is drying up. Bless. Yesterday, was a meaningful Tunnel to Towers. Due to theContinue reading “Hi! Hi!”
