Loving reminder: You don’t need to know where it ends…you just need to keep taking steps that feel 💯 like YOU 🥰

Somehow it’s already been a week in Buenos Aires 🥹🍂🥟

A week of getting settled in, navigating a broken laptop screen, finding my rhythm in a brand new city, walking sooooo many steps, eating incredible food, wandering, and reminding myself that life still gets to be beautiful even when things don’t go perfectly.

I’m already falling in love with the parks, the architecture, the mix of Argentinian + Italian influence everywhere, and the fact that I basically live on empanadas now because… I get it 😭

Also feeling really grateful for the clients in my world rn and the spaciousness I’ve been able to create in how I work while I navigate a bit of unexpected tech chaos over here 💻💖

A few little moments from week one:
• empanadas and dulce de leche (obviously 🤤)
• autumn leaves and the surreal feeling of jumping into a whole new season
• park days + café hopping
• finally watching The Devil Wears Prada
• wandering with no destination
• hearing a group singing Hare Krishna in the park… a message to trust and surrender following me across the world yet again 🥹
• learning the rhythm of this city one walk at a time

Just feeling verrrrry grateful to be here✨🇦🇷

There is something about the Yucatan Peninsula in Mexico that doesn’t ask if you’re ready to grow. It just begins 😂

I’ve been reflecting on this wonderful place as I get ready to leave. 11 months in Mexico. 8 of them in this beautiful little corner of the world called Playa del Carmen that somehow became my new home.

Within days of arriving I hurt my ankle and couldn’t walk for weeks. That was my welcome lol. Looking back now I understand completely - this place was never going to let me stay the same, and it didn’t.

This region is an energetic portal for sure. The Mayans knew it. I know it now too. It will stretch you, crack you open, rearrange you… and somehow do all of that while looking like absolute paradise.

Warm Caribbean water, lush jungle, gorgeous cenotes, breathtaking sunrises/sets, delicious food, the most loving people and magic around every corner.

It gave me so much… chapters of healing I didn’t even know I still needed. A version of myself I had to be forced into becoming and am so grateful for now.

And now… the pull is calling me somewhere new. A new country. A new continent. A new chapter. Any guesses where?

💌 To Mama México: thank you for NOT being gentle with me. Thank you for being exactly what I needed. Hasta luego y te quiero.

🥂 Here’s to letting a place change you completely. To saying yes to what’s next even when what’s here is so beautiful. And to trusting that the best chapters don’t replace the ones before them, they’re built on them. 💖🧜‍♀️

A little reminder for the part of you that already knows 😘

Chasing things outside of yourself (aka 🥕) never tastes as good as living your truth 😘
