I’m inspired to share this video from my hike this past weekend, here in Santo Antao :) With all things, I hope that you are inspired to release all that does not serve you and keep moving! ;) xo,

ONE MUST BE FREE TO FLY
Can you imagine a pilot flying a plane with every piece of the passengers’ luggage tied to their back?? I know, it seems completely absurd…but this is the analogy that came to my mind on this early morning in Mindelo Haha In the same way, can you imagine a bird flying with its nest tied - Read More -

THANK YOU, HOUSTON!
I originally came to Houston with the idea that I would be here just a few weeks ago…but that was almost three months ago! A series of (fortunate) events have kept me here and it’s been a really beautiful experience. I’ve met so many wonderful, beautiful people! And it’s been a delight for me to - Read More -

Society…and even those closest to you…will try to convince you that your hair is not straight enough (or curly enough), your body is not thin enough (or curvy enough), your teeth are not straight enough (or white enough), or even that your skin - Read More -

WHAT DO YOU WANT?
Almost one year ago, I had the pleasure of interviewing high school students interested in attending my alma mater, Northwestern University. It is an incredible privilege to speak with these students, as I know that my assessment may influence their future collegiate decisions.

I once read that forgiveness is not simply about accepting what has happened…forgiveness is giving up the hope that the past could have been any different.

Victimhood — where you are not touching reality, but rather you’re touching your thoughts about reality 2. Manifestation of visioning — where you do not describe what you see, you see - Read More -
