Feeling so full and rejuvenated after a weeklong staff retreat with my @globalglimpse team in the Dominican Republic! Our small but mighty crew of colleagues are scattered across the globe, and when we come all together once a year, it’s pure magic. We laughed, reflected, played, strengthened our bonds and grew alongside each other over the past week while getting to relax and recharge in Samaná, one of the most beautiful places ever. 🏝️ Perched up in the lush, jungle hilltops overlooking Samaná Bay, we stayed at @haciendacocuyo , the perfect backdrop for our retreat. A highlight was our sailboat adventures with @greensailsamana , which brought us face to face with whales 🐳! We basked in the sun, jumped in the beautiful blue waters of Cayo Levontado island and enjoyed beautiful moments bonding with fellow colleagues who I’m also lucky to call my friends. Reflecting on this past week fills me with a profound sense of gratitude, a reminder of the privilege of working with such purpose-driven, creative, thoughtful and all-around amazing humans who bring so much inspiration and light to my life everyday. Entering my birthday month, this is exactly the recharge I needed! 🧡

We’re big on Halloween, and with Diwali falling on Halloween this year, we got to bring together the best of both worlds—traditions, treats, a little magic—for our own little Diwaloween! 🪔🎃 With a ‘Desi’ witch, Detroit Red Wings hockey player, and our little firefighter (and his truck), we celebrated with ladoos, jalebis, Halloween candy, and lit diyas with a wish for a world where light overcomes darkness, joy fills even the smallest moments, and traditions—new and old—bring comfort and connection. 🥰 Wishing everyone a Diwali filled with peace, resilience, and hope for brighter days ahead. #GoVote #HappyHalloween #HappyDiwali #diwaloween

When the sun’s shining, we’re out exploring!🌞 Clammin’ on the Oregon coast had Luca convinced we were on the moon! 🌕 What a cool experience it was to dig for clams below the surface of the tidal sand flats of Gearhart beach. It was my first time and we brought home so many! Can’t wait for more Pacific Northwest adventures this Spring and watching our little explorer thrive in his natural habitat (besides being surrounded by construction vehicles, of course). As long as Mama’s snack stash is ready, we’re all in good moods 😉. If you find yourself on the #OregonCoast, don’t miss the chance to visit the coastal town of Gearhart, where you’ll find unspoiled beaches, quaint boutique inns, coffee shops, and a golf course. It’s quiet, beautiful and sleepy – exactly how I love coastal spots to be! 🌊 Also, how cute are Luca’s little curls! 🥹➿ #Family #Oregon #PNW #Clamming #visitoregon #TravelOregon #WomenWhoExploreOregon
As I turn 38 today, I find myself overwhelmed with gratitude for the incredible year of growth that has led me here. I often felt like a “late bloomer” in life. My passions and core values didn’t start forming until my late 20s, when I had a chance to “fly on my own” as I ventured into an atypical career path and explored relationships that taught me about myself and the world outside my little bubble. My 30s have been a time of self-discovery, growth, and embracing all the unique aspects of who I am. This past year was pivotal, as I’ve had to face my demons, have hard conversations, set firmer boundaries, and let go of what hasn’t been serving me. Each revelation, challenge, and moment of growth has taught me invaluable lessons that have emboldened me with wisdom and confidence as I step into my next chapter. I’m blessed beyond words to have a partner who loves me unconditionally, keeps me accountable, believes in me and is committed to evolving together. To have a career that fulfills me on so many levels and be surrounded by people that give me inspiration and push me to be my best. To have a little boy who keeps my childlike wonder alive, keeps me grounded and brings so much purpose and joy to my life. This past year, I’m proud to have built a community in Oregon – a support system that makes me feel safe and valued, and is just made up of amazing humans all-around. Going into 38, I aspire to: – Stay consistent with the goals I set for myself – Release unhealthy attachments – Spend time with the people that make me feel safe – Focus on what I can control – Set and honor boundaries – Be more accepting of change and embrace self-care, down to my physical and mental health – Love myself exactly as I am Here’s to another year of embracing life’s journey, with all its ups and downs, and continuing to grow, learn, and build meaningful connections, and learning to love myself more so I can be an example for my son! Thank you for being a part of my story. 🙏🏼💗 #BirthdayReflections #Gratitude #EmbracingGrowth
