By: Gabriela Yareliz If you have watched enough of The Office, you know Scranton has one stripper. She shows up dressed like a nurse to help give a charity check, and she shows up in other ways at Dunder Mifflin. She says, “Secrets secrets are no fun. Secrets secrets hurt someone.” This scene came toContinue reading “Secrets”

Understanding
“But the fact is, most human beings have never done the work to understand themselves, heal their past, or manage their own emotions. If they haven’t done that for themselves, they are incapable of doing that for you and showing up in a way that you deserve.” Mel Robbins By: Gabriela Yareliz Life would beContinue reading “Understanding”
This Matters
By: Gabriela Yareliz “You want a meaningful life? Everything you do, matters. Everything.” Dr. Jordan B. Peterson When I read the quote above by JBP, I nodded. I have always seen life this way. Some people see it as overkill, but life just doesn’t work the way many assume it does. It surprises all ofContinue reading “This Matters”
Slow
By: Gabriela Yareliz “Slow down.” I saw this phrase on a kombucha cap, a card somewhere, a song— this has been everywhere, lately. In a highly caffeinated world (where we run with cups of caffeine instead of sitting with them), we are reminded to slow down. When we slow down, we have more time toContinue reading “Slow”
Unreasonable
By: Gabriela Yareliz Is the world run by sex-addicts, adulterers, and pedophiles? As time passes, it really does feel like it. **Cue song “I Need a Hero”** Even our most revered historical figures have some insane histories. The MLK Jr. files revealed what was often rumored about the minister and civil rights activist. It wasn’tContinue reading “Unreasonable”

Let me be the one, the giver of divine, unconditional love. Let me do the hard things in hard places.Continue reading “Declarations”
Sleep Is King
By: Gabriela Yareliz “There is a time for many words, and there is also a time for sleep.” Homer, The Odyssey I listen to a lot of health experts. The most recent one I listened to was Gary Brecka. His TSC Podcast episode was excellent. He mentioned that when a client comes to him, the firstContinue reading “Sleep Is King”
Fundamentals
By: Gabriela Yareliz The little girl from Uptown Girls, Ray, would always say, “Fundamentals are the building blocks of fun.” Whether it is health, policy, work, leadership— it seems like we always complicate things, when in reality, what seems to be needed is a return to the basics, the foundations, what used to be seenContinue reading “Fundamentals”
Energy Bank
By: Gabriela Yareliz I still allow others to shade my day. It’s a human problem. I am actively and intentionally trying to shift this. Maybe it helps to think of energy like a bank. Or a nice little snack drawer. What lead me to this thought was Dr. Caroline Leaf saying, “Frustration takes up energy.”Continue reading “Energy Bank”
Be Prepared
By: Gabriela Yareliz “You must always be prepared to place a bet on yourself, on your future, by heading in a direction that others seem to fear. This means you believe that if you fail, you have the inner resources to recover.” ROBERT GREENE I love the thought of “heading in a direction that othersContinue reading “Be Prepared”
