a glamping boujie beach birthday + lucky girl vibes ✨


hola holaaa Reader!

and happy Travel Tales, Transformations & Tacos Tuesday 🌟🏖️ aka your weekly dose of raw, real moments + mindset magic from your beach bum bestie and permission slip to live a life you love 💞

this week we're diving into my birthday update since a few of y'all asked! (it was on May 10th - thank you everyone for the birthday wishes!)

i went on a cute glamping getaway to a lil slice of paradise only 20 minutes away from my HOME by taxi

yet it felt like another world. peaceful. magical. luxurious. quiet. and just so ... ME!

i woke up and walked two steps to drink my coffee in a hammock amongst the jungley trees listening to the birds

before sauntering over first to the pool for a lil tanning sesh then another 2 min walk to the beach for the rest of the afternoon

i remember waking up and thinking: “wow ... past kerri would’ve dreamed about this as a once-in-a-lifetime vacation. and now? this is my literal life.”

the pride that bubbled up was unreal. because i created this life. slowly, one brave decision at a time.

a past version of me used to look up at airplanes and wish i was on one jet setting away to some dreamy destination

and now, i look up and wave to the people hoping they're going somewhere to be as happy as i am exactly where i am right now too

this is your reminder: don't sleep on your dreams

because your “dream life” is way closer than you think

and you’re allowed to celebrate yourself for how far you’ve already come so far

lucky girl vibes are real. and you’re already living proof 💞

i'll be sharing some more fun pep talk-y updates soon, but for today, just know:

🌺 your joy matters
🌺 your progress counts
🌺 and your dream life is definitely closer than you think

sending you a taco-shaped hug 🌮

with love,

Wellness

my body decided a few days before i fly internationally for a massive conference was the perfect time to become allergic to my lash extensions i've been getting for 1.5 years ...


so i spent another few days with ice and tea bags on my eyeballs crying and having an identity crisis, which i'm not (mostly) over!


here's one of my fave quick n dirty practices that helps me see where to channel my energy when i feel like a mess!:

Wanderlust

i'm curating outfits for my conference in Texas, which will be my first of two trips in the next few weeks because i've officially booked my flight back to Canada for the summer!

so i'm focusing on this conference this week, then packing up my entire apartment, putting my belongings in storage, and going to good ol Ontario to visit friends and family while the weather is actually decent there!

Working On

i made what felt like a huge decision to not launch my Pep Talk Portal offer, because what i realized is ... it's actually the vibe i've been craving for my Self Love Experiment Membership

so0o there are some glow ups on the horizon, and all i know right now is that there will be voice notes, pep talks, and more of a chat style vibe vs emails!

so if you're feeling called to some self care + magic mindset support ... peep the membership while the price is still $11/month!
