May we never take this for granted.
Winter Hydration PSA
By: Gabriela Yareliz This is your PSA to hydrate your eyes, this winter. We don’t often think about eye hydration, but boy do we feel the dryness in the winter.

Icono Series: Melissa Wood Tepperberg
Melissa Wood Tepperberg has changed my life with intentional movement. I have tried many other workout programs, but my lack of interest in them is not because they aren’t good but because they aren’t Melissa.

Sunday Girl: January 14, 2018
Happy Sunday, friends. I wanted to start off the week with some curated encouragement straight from my inbox. We don’t know what the week holds for us, but we know that what we have is today. Today, we can prep, rest and recalibrate. I loved the following quotes and articles: “Life will eventually bring youContinue reading “Sunday Girl: January 14, 2018”
This is how 2017 began
By: Gabriela Yareliz It began with a kiss from the most amazing man, after I had stuffed my face with grapes, per Spanish tradition. I was surrounded by my loved ones, and Antena3 TV Española was blasting in the background. Squeaky, the cat, had gone missing, and the night was humid and dark.
