By: Gabriela Yareliz I keep coming across this thought— six months. Where will we be in six months? Anything is possible. Your current circumstance is not permanent. Today, no matter what you are going through, I urge you to take care of yourself, and do something that nourishes your spirit. When things get hard, rememberContinue reading “Six Months”

Let Them
By: Gabriela Yareliz Humans— we are strange little creatures. We try to sometimes give advice— that often fails. We try to pretend like we are the exception to the rule— that often fails. We pressure others and ourselves— that often fails. I have been reading Mel Robbins’ Let Them Theory and reflecting on the manyContinue reading “Let Them”
X+Y=Z
By: Gabriela Yareliz I was listening to a biohacker from Poland’s podcast (I really do like her), and she had on another woman from Eastern Europe. They started talking about how Americans are so encouraging and the acceptance of success that exists in the United States— even unmatched by Canada and Australia, in their experience.Continue reading “X+Y=Z”
Wrestling
By: Gabriela Yareliz “If you believe you can completely map your partner, then you do not really know that person. […] A real relationship is a wrestling match; it is a grappling phenomenon from which you both emerge transformed.” Dr. Jordan B. Peterson The truth is none of us is static. We are ever evolvingContinue reading “Wrestling”
Compass
By: Gabriela Yareliz “If you listen to what other people think, you are useless as a compass.” Ryan Holiday said he heard this somewhere… It has stayed on my mind ever since I heard it from him.

Theo was talking about how he saw a random recording someone took of him, and they called him ugly. Antonio went on to say that ugly means “swaggy.” “Watch this ugly mf getContinue reading “Ugly”
Secrets
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”
