By: Gabriela Yareliz Next week, we’ll start September. Everyone keeps asking where summer went. I don’t know. My seasonal transitional cleaning is underway. Yesterday, I wiped down the kitchen cabinets, sorted through cans and refreshed extermination tools. I am satisfied with what I accomplished this week. This week, we lost many people, including the legendaryContinue reading “This Week’s Favorites 08.28.26”

The Setup
“Chronic stress management is not optional — it is hormonal maintenance.” Rich Girl Academy By: Gabriela Yareliz I was reading a piece on declining fertility the other day, and it made a point to highlight that hormonal imbalances in women today don’t just belong to the woman in the present, but we are set upContinue reading “The Setup”

I saw parents dropping off their kids to some of their last 9 am taekwondo classes before classes start up here. (Classes start so late here—) You could feel the end of summer hanging in the cool 68F air after yesterday’s rainstorm, flooding and apparently, Long Island tornado. Back to school reminds me of theContinue reading “This Week’s Favorites 08.21.26”
Inviting Miracles
“Sacrifice and generosity invite miracles.” Glorify Devotional This thought stayed with me.

One week closer to fall weather, my friends. After rain, NYC has felt considerably cooler this week. It’s nice to feel a breeze when you walk. Bless. IG is filled with two camps— “last of summer” and “it’s fall”. I finished Nicole Sach’s book, and it never got better. I don’t think I have readContinue reading “This Week’s Favorites 08.14.26”
Summer Days
“When I look back on this summer, when I look back on my life, I want to know that I was fully there. I want to know that I was the first to arrive and the last to leave.” Tylee Shay By: Gabriela Yareliz Summer makes us dream. Strawberry patches. Lake water. Boats. An oldContinue reading “Summer Days”

By: Gabriela Yareliz What a week. Scott Lobaido flatlined and got brought back to life. He is still being iconic from his hospital bed. The humidity reached new levels. The NY Post called it “Caribbean” levels of humidity. Whatever it is— we feel it. I sweat so much this week. Yesterday, my jeans left myContinue reading “This Week’s Favorites 08.07.26”
No Skipping
“People skip the parts of themselves they’re not ready to face. They avoid the very things that, once they’re willing to face them, open the door to profound growth. Those are the things that ultimately lead to healthier relationships, a happier life, and a lighter relationship with yourself. But because they’re uncomfortable, people keep skippingContinue reading “No Skipping”

A happy August to you! Those of us who aren’t summer people are hanging by a thread, elevating prayers in hopes that we can survive the next two months and arrive to a cooler October. The countdown is real. They do this thing in my neighborhood called Summer Stroll, and it’s always cool to walkContinue reading “This Week’s Favorites 08.01.26”
The Games Men Play
By: Gabriela Yareliz The news coming out of Ceuta, Spain is disturbing and eerily similar to scenes the U.S. border experienced in the past presidential administration. Borders overrun— and not by women and children or even families— no, by military age men. I have seen videos of local women crying and displaying an emotion thatContinue reading “The Games Men Play”
