Reminder
By: Gabriela Yareliz My old executive coach wrote to me the other day to check in. It was sweet. When she texted, I was feeling annoying, exhausted and in some weird raging PMS state. Something about that woman inspires me to set boundaries. Her sweet text jolted me (positively). When she texted to say hi,Continue reading “Reminder”
Analog
By: Gabriela Yareliz I read a piece on Substack about having an “analog fall.” To live life like a 90s sitcom adult. Imagine that. I smiled and thought back at this past weekend where we took photos of some neat antique cars with disposable film cameras. I had been organically inching toward analog before IContinue reading “Analog”
To the Unseen Words
By: Gabriela Yareliz This one goes out to all the morning pages, journal pages and brain dumps where we process all of the words that jam into our brain channels. Where we let it all out and then, feel free. The great unclogging. I ended last week with a ton of pent up energy andContinue reading “To the Unseen Words”
Harvest Moon Anticipation
“A guilty pleasure of mine is Waspy country club culture. It’s so camp. Adults wearing matching white outfits, playing sports, eating chicken salad and drinking vodka at noon? Incredible.” The Wishbone Kitchen Cookbook By: Gabriela Yareliz Last night, we went to the napkin ring part of the neighborhood. The large houses that spend an entireContinue reading “Harvest Moon Anticipation”
Craft Heaven
By: Gabriela Yareliz I was on the train (naturally— when am I not?), and I saw an ad for a new Hobby Lobby in Tribeca. This is not a drill! We have a Hobby Lobby. Hobby Lobby reminds me of my days in Gainesville. I love the smell in there. We love Hobby Lobby inContinue reading “Craft Heaven”
Autumn Quotes
Some autumn quotes that caught my eye this week: “Beguile us in the way you know; Release one leaf at the break of day.” Robert Frost “If autumn is a season of mists and mellow fruitfulness, then October is a month of velvet and champagne and smoke curling into cold air like hope.” Hannah Connolly
Mobile Vibe Shifter
By: Gabriela Yareliz It was one of those mornings where I was in a rush. So much so that I had forgotten to put on deodorant. (I hate those days when this accidentally happens). I ran out like a lunatic, and as I made my way to the train station, I heard music. It wasContinue reading “Mobile Vibe Shifter”
Who to Look For
By: Gabriela Yareliz Only Murders in the Buildings is in its best season yet. Its latest episode reminds us of an important principle for life. Always pay attention to who wants to silence you, then, ask yourself why. Important life skill.
Simplifying for Autumn
By: Gabriela Yareliz The goal is to simplify. As the seasons turn, I have that urge to clean, as I have mentioned before. It’s a built-in syndrome or something. This cleaning is not limited to actual closet sweeps, but also, apps, subscriptions, etc. It’s time to take inventory. I still need to do a comprehensiveContinue reading “Simplifying for Autumn”
