Last Thursday, I became one of the 17 million people who filed for unemployment due to coronavirus.

I followed the news like a hawk (both my boyfriend and my dad are healthcare providers so that was something else to worry about). I knew people were experiencing reduced…

The theme for these wallpapers is “Spring Awakening.” Despite what’s happening…

And just as quickly as the New Year arrived, it’s now March. New Year’s resolutions are either in the back of your minds, going strong or broken (and that’s okay). While I don’t believe in waiting for the perfect time and place to begin fill in the blank here, I commend anyone who is brave enough to take those first steps, (yes, baby-steps count too), toward achieving their goals.

How To Awaken Your Authentic Self

  • Here’s the thing: “Doubt kills more dreams than failure ever will.” In our darkest moments, we may seek support, advice, and validation from others to help overcome our own self-doubt. But there will be times where there will be no one you can turn to, rely on, or count on except for YOURSELF. And as difficult as that may be, there’s real power in betting on yourself.

  • 🍷Wine country: Livermore 🍷 ⠀⠀ #ThrowbackThursday: Sometimes a staycation is what you need. Since I wasn’t home for New Years, my bf planned a mini weekend getaway for us the following week. An hour outside of SF, we found ourselves at @thepurpleorchid . It was quiet, private, romantic, and the hospitality was top-notch. You are treated like family here 💕 ⠀⠀ On top of that, they sell THE BEST DAMN OLIVE OIL I’ve had! We spent the weekend exploring the wineries and Downtown Livermore. ⠀⠀ We can’t wait to be back once everything is back to normal 🍷 ⠀⠀ #alongcamekatrina #wineaboutit #youcansipwithus #goodwine #sommlife #sommelierlife #sommeliers #wineexperience #womenwhowine #livermore #livermorewinecountry #womenwhodrinkwine #lessworkmorelife #purpleorchid

  • Okay, you’re passionate. And? Don’t get me wrong. It’s good to be passionate. But passion only gets you so far. I got the opportunity to share my story with @boldandbrilliantlife about how I made my career switch from localization into events/marketing in the tech industry and the question about “finding your passion” came up. The truth is this: a prerequisite to finding your passion is understanding what you’re committed to doing. At the end of the day, what you need to be able to answer is are you COMMITTED to putting in the hard work to fulfill your passion? If not, what’s passion without a purpose? Read my full interview about what it takes to jump ship and follow your passions.
