Here’s a bit of insight into the wackiness that is me:
Before I went into surgery, I convinced myself that I would be healed and ready to work again in five days’ time (it actually took two weeks).
So I set the goal for myself that on the fifth day I would celebrate my success by baking [...]

It’s been ages since I’ve updated my blog. I apologize.
Healing from the surgery was far more difficult than I could have imagined! I was bed ridden for about 3 days where I just laid in the same position and never moved except for the excruciating journey to the bathroom. My neck and back locked up [...]

My trip to Arizona was absolutely incredible. I cherished every moment of it. I particularly loved Flagstaff and Sedona.
But I ended up having to cut it short and return home a few days early. Why? Because I started having incredible abdominal pain.
I knew before I left that I have uterine fibroid tumors. These are benign [...]

Yesterday I went whitewater rafting along the Colorado River in the INSIDE of the Grand Canyon. Words cannot describe how incredible this experience was.
I haven’t seen the Grand Canyon from above, but from inside it’s like being amongst giants, as cliche as that sounds. I just kept thinking over and over that I was surrounded [...]

Quick post and update:
So I just arrived in Vegas yesterday. Staying at the Luxor. It’s not the best, but it’s cool. I brought my 22 year old brother here. It’s his first time as a legal drinking adult.
We went to LAX last night, just because it was free and easy to get in [...]

The Happy Ending Bar & Restaurant
So this Tuesday Rachel and I bid our farewells. Not permanent, mind you, as we’ll reconnect in Latin America end of September. But after living together for 7 months and becoming best friends and even partners on a very successful product…well it was a big deal.
So we sent her off [...]

Though I’ve mentioned her in a few posts here, I want to talk about one of the most influential, beautiful, kind-hearted people in my life:
Rachel Rofe
This post is sort of an ode to her as she is leaving in a week for a two-month road trip across the United States, after which we will reconnect [...]

As you might know, my best friend is fellow colleague Rachel Rofe.
We decided a couple months ago that we wanted to create a joint blog project to chronicle our adventures and exploits while traveling the world. Since we’re about to head to South America, Thailand and Australia, and she’s about to embark on a cross [...]

I just got pictures from our resident photographer in Cancun. Just wanted to share! So many good memories…
Here’s me and Rachel, my best friend:

Working through my current healing process has brought me into an uncanny synchronicity in my life where I will experience something and then within a couple days, have to read or write about it (I am a ghost writer on some self-help projects and such).
For instance, today I had to write a lesson for a [...]
