By: Gabriela Yareliz Alfred Nobel is known for the Nobel Peace Prize— the Swedish chemist also invented dynamite. ⚡️ Perhaps lasting peace is only possible by those willing and ready to create a destructive explosion— maybe this is the only way it has integrity. Otherwise, it is just cowardice or an inability to act withContinue reading “Nobel”

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”
The Best
By: Gabriela Yareliz I saw this quote, and I thought to myself— we often think “What’s the worst that could happen?” And sometimes, this is a good tool to spur us to action anyway. But what would happen if we thought, “What’s the best that could happen?” Would things be different?
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. I want us to think about ourselves as a compass. A compass works through alignment with the magneticContinue reading “Compass”

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”
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”
