I was blown away when I learned about the benefits of dry brushing. Not only does dry brushing remove dry skin but it also stimulates your lymphatic system and releases toxins from your body/glands.

So you’re thinking of embracing your curly hair and you don’t know where to start? I know it can be a bit intimidating. While I have always worn my hair curly, I haven’t always loved my curly hair. I spent many years trying to “tame” or “manage” my curls (read my natural hair journey). It was an emotional battle to say the least.

It doesn’t take a lot of money to have an amazing wardrobe. In fact, I think it’s important to point out that over half of my wardrobe is thrifted for pennies on the dollar. I’m frequently asked how I find such great thrifted pieces, so I thought I’d share my top 10 tips for thrifting.

The long awaited closed reveal vlog is now live! Now, nothing is better than a little before and after for ultimate dramatic effect. So take a look at the photos of my closet prior to construction. As you can see, my previous closet was lacking thoughtful storage and organization, had poor lighting, and the overall aesthetic was, let’s just say, brown.

My life is a collection of moments and experiences. For me, those moments are further enhanced by the people I meet. My recent work trip to Park Hyatt St. Kitts – Nevis was filled with meaningful human connections and sooooo many unforgettable moments. It took mere minutes for me to go from LA girl to ISLAND GIRL!!

Admittedly, I have a major obsession with Medieval villages!! I suppose living in Los Angeles which is modern and newly built by comparison, I am attracted to these marvelously historic and classic cities. St. Paul is one of the oldest in the French Riviera. This spectacular walled in village is well preserved and continues to be a very popular destination in Côte d’Azur.
