1️⃣ thing i’m NOT giving up this year
holy moly it's 2026, Reader!yet honestly ... not much feels like it's changed for me! NYE kinda just happened and flowed right into what felt like a normal day for me ... still living in Playa del Carmen, Mexico still going to the beach, playing volleyball, eating tacos, and living a lazy life of leisure no "new year new me" energy over here (though i do love the collective excitement in the air!) of course lots HAS evolved and unfolded over the past year as i've been revealing while being...
sometimes the holidays feel heavy 🎄
hola Reader! our social media feeds are about to be saturated with perfect holiday posts either perfectly curated highlight reels or AI generated perfection ps yes, i tried that trending ChatGBT Christmas photo thing and wow, what an eye opener about how fake things can get! i'm single. i live alone. i'm an ocean away from all of my family. yes, i get to celebrate in paradise - my version of a white Christmas at the beach. but i deeply miss my mom who's no longer on this planet to celebrate...
my personal BF picks + recs
hola Reader! first things first - whether you're celebrating Thanksgiving today or not, i want to take a moment to express my gratitude for YOU and your beautiful existence in my world 💕 once upon a time i thought nobody would care what i had to say, so thank you for opening my emails and proving past me wrong! i know we're all being bombarded with BF sales right now, but some of y'all wanted some recommendations so here's a carefully curated round up of things that have genuinely supported...
my conscious consumerism approach to Black Friday
hola Reader! deep breath i know your inbox is probably doing somersaults right now with ALL the shiny sales emails … and i want to offer you something different: permission to pause. this isn't another "BUY ALL THE THINGS!" email (promise!) instead, i want to share a little perspective shift that's completely transformed how i approach this whole season … here's the thing about black friday: it's really easy to get swept up in the "everything is on sale!" energy and end up with a cart full of...
if you feel behind in life, read this ✨
hola Reader! yesterday was my half birthday (yes, i still celebrate those because i consider them a mid way point of MY year 😅) and i had a bit of a meltdown moment thinking about all the things i hadn't accomplished yet this year ... you know that spiral, right? when you're looking ahead at everything you want to do and suddenly feel behind on life? but then i did something that usually helps me shift perspective - i grabbed my journal and started writing down the growth and lessons since my...
so i'm becoming a hermit?
hola Reader ✨! you know those moments when your body is trying to tell you something but your mind is like "but what about the old plan?!" yeah, i've been there this week! after years of being a professional beach bum digital nomad, i'm feeling called to shift into what i'm lovingly calling my "healthy happy hermit era" here in Playa del Carmen, Mexico and can i tell you something? it kind of freaked me out at first! my new potential home is further from the beach (less than 4km lol) than...
permission to begin again🌙
happy New Moon in Libra, Reader! the last few weeks have felt a little … wobbly for me. between eclipse season madagascar - canada - mexico within a 3 week period and apartment hunting here in Playa del Carmen it feels like i'm still finding my footing and craving a big, cosmic reset button so if you’re feeling a little off-balance too, like you’re being pulled in a million different directions, you are so not alone! 💕 the good news? the universe is literally delivering that reset button to...
my 3 non-negotiables
hola Reader! last week i was in Madagascar, this week i’m in Canada, and next week i’ll be in Mexico it's definitely a whirlwind chapter, but i'm actually feeling fairly grounded thanks to a few non negotiables in my life: 1. Prioritizing rest and recalibration, even when the world is spinning As a Projector in Human Design AND a Taurus who LOVES juicy rest, it's a non negotiable that i schedule in time for "brain breaks" every single day sometimes it's a nap, sometimes it's sitting outside...
i like IG but maybe you hate it?!
hola from MADAGASCAR Reader! my brain is still trying to process that my two weeks of lil lemur living in Madagascar aka my first time ever in Africa is wrapping up! it's definitely been an adventure and i almost feel like i need a vacation after my vacation as i've not moved around so much since my backpacking days! it's been nice bonding with my sister, swooning over baby lemurs, and admiring 500+ year old baobob trees and though i didn't quite expect or prepare for it (no podcasts for 12+...
i failed at summer 🫠
welcome to september, Reader! i was originally planning on sending you a sparkly "happy new month!" email with updates about my upcoming trip to Madagascar, but that felt inauthentic because the truth is ... i felt like a failure and a hypocrite when i woke up on september 1st this summer, i set the intention to completely surrender to my pilates pool princess era here in canada which i was flowing naturally with for the first bit, but then summer decided to disappear three weeks early and i...
