By: Gabriela Yareliz Sometimes, life takes twists and turns that bring back emotions and thoughts that used to follow us around. We are triggered (for lack of a better word). We are like, this again? It happens. We are human. Internal safety has been a concept I have been exploring through my coaching program (God blessContinue reading “Not the Same”

The Power of ‘No’
By: Gabriela Yareliz Do you have any idea how many times I have said ‘no’? When people and circumstances said I was stuck— no. When some encouraged me to not pursue higher education— no. When they told me I wasn’t qualified— no. When people tried to manipulate me by calling me a ‘bad (fill inContinue reading “The Power of ‘No’”
July 2024 Favorites
Hello! Is it just me, or did July just FLY by? Suddenly, one Friday I found out it was time for Summer Stroll (think of Summer Stroll as a giant block party); My favorite vendor on the commercial avenue told me. The shock set in. Summer Stroll means summer is almost over, and my leaseContinue reading “July 2024 Favorites”
Peace is the Key
By: Gabriela Yareliz As I’ve expanded my learning in biohacking and self-experimentation for health, one thing has become a highlight. I have realized that for many health goals, whether it is lowering glucose, lowering stress, burning fat and/or balancing hormones, most of these things start with a question– “How can I make my body feelContinue reading “Peace is the Key”
Collective
By: Gabriela Yareliz The events of the past few months– actually days– need to be acknowledged. Every day, we collectively live out history. Listen, I tried to get something at the bank today and couldn’t because of the Microsoft system meltdown. People can’t get out of Milwaukee because of grounded flights. Every day is aContinue reading “Collective”
May 2024 Favorites

I got to attend my new employer’s commencement ceremony in my full regalia, which was nostalgic. I made a new work bestie. I started reading Seduction by Robert Greene, and it is gold. (All ofContinue reading “May 2024 Favorites”
Covered
By: Gabriela Yareliz Every day, we have the opportunity to pray over people and quite literally change the course of their lives. See, prayer gives God and heavenly angels the permission to intervene in lives where maybe that person has closed the door to it (or they aren’t intentionally seeking it). Our requests are honored.Continue reading “Covered”
Morning Trains
By: Gabriela Yareliz Here we are speeding toward the Times Square train station, which is a non-stop circus. Each corner curiously serves a different genre of music. I heard an old black man sing “Stand By Me,” better than the original (as I ran past him); a man singing and dancing salsa with an enviableContinue reading “Morning Trains”
Photo of the Year
Calling this the photo of 2024. UNC-Chapel Hill frat bros hoisting and protecting the American flag from anti-Israel protestors while being pelted with water bottles, rocks and sticks. Hats off to the gentlemen. Nothing like a southern state school. Following this, money was raised for a frat rager. Name something more American. God bless America.Continue reading “Photo of the Year”
April 2024 Favorites
By: Gabriela Yareliz I hope you enjoy my scrapbook vibe of a blog. There is so much here. I can’t wait to share. I have included some of my photos from my adventures throughout the apocalyptic month. It was a fun one! The month started with an eclipse that brought all business to a (sanctioned)Continue reading “April 2024 Favorites”
