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.

This Week’s Favorites 10.16.26
By: Gabriela Yareliz It was unseasonably warm this week. Please, we do not want to regress into summer. I sweat more than I care to admit, this week.

This Week’s Favorites 10.09.26
By: Gabriela Yareliz I am sitting here staring at my bag of baby Jesuses. I need to do better and distribute them. The week went. Maybe it was the PMS, but it was a week of a wide range of emotions.

Deepest Responsibility
My morning reading included this line from Sarah Ban Breathnach: “It is not only our right at certain times to say ‘no’; it is our deepest responsibility.” Sharing it here, in case you need it, too.

Soul Cure
By: Gabriela Yareliz There are weeks where we fall into old patterns of behavior, and we do not take proper care of ourselves. We all have them.
