Ahhhh the 70s!
It was a time when we wore our best outfit to class, to work, to dinner, to nowhere special at all. Platforms clicking on city sidewalks, palazzos catching the breeze, and enough confidence to think nothing of changing trains in heels before a full workday. We didn’t call it “aesthetic.” We just got dressed and lived our lives. I can hear the soundtrack of 70s music in my head right now.
Back then in Brooklyn, everybody had somewhere to be and wanted to look good getting there. Running for the train, in thise crazy heels, mind you…music blasting from somebody’s window, corner stores, summer block heat, long days in Manhattan, and somehow still making it home looking fly. New York in the 70s had grit, style, hustle, attitude—and if you came up in that era, you know there was nothing soft about it. We earned every bit of our swagger.
Nik Niks. Palazzo Pants. Platform shoes.
Who remembers? Let me know your favorite styles you wore in the 70s.

Some places stay with you long after the suitcase is unpacked.
The @omtaraspa at Kappa Senses Ubud was one of those places for me — hidden among lush greenery, soft rain, flowing water, warm oils, quiet rituals, and the kind of stillness that makes the rest of the world go silent for a little while.
I’m already back home in Arizona, back to real life, emails, laundry and deadlines… but this experience deserved its moment on the timeline because true peace is becoming a luxury these days. Bali slowed me down in the most beautiful way.
And honestly? A massage in the middle of the jungle while listening to nature do its thing should be prescribed at least twice a year.

Just some random pics from 2019. Some of them are in Italy,and in those I was early in my gray hair journey , and I chose gray braids to cover up the early gray hair transition. Other pics are in NY.
Anyhoo, time flies!

There’s something about getting older that teaches you the difference between luxury and peace. One costs money. The other costs years.
Years of lessons.�Years of heartbreak.�Years of overextending, overthinking, overgiving.
So yes… these days I’ll gladly sit in beautiful places, wear the white linen, order the good meal, and disappear into serene aqua views without one ounce of guilt.
Because this softness?�It wasn’t handed to me.�I earned every bit of it.
Bali has been good for my spirit.
Sometimes the most productive thing you can do is step away from the noise…
At this age, I no longer vacation to impress people.�I vacation to hear myself think again.

Do you need a reset?
Happy Mother’s Day All!💐Then and Now…Swipe left.
One of the greatest Blessings of my life is being a mother and seeing my children flourish. Sometimes we wonder how we did as parents, but I’m happy to say that my boys give me my flowers of appreciation while I’m still here🙏🏽💐❤️
I pray this can be said of me from Proverbs 31:
27
She looks well to the ways of her household
and does not eat the bread of idleness.
28
Her children rise up and call her blessed;
her husband also, and he praises her:
29
“Many women have done excellently,
but you surpass them all.”
30
Charm is deceitful, and beauty is vain,
but a woman who fears the Lord is to be praised.
31
Give her of the fruit of her hands,
and let her works praise her in the gates.
And when you can’t physically, be there with them, there’s always AI to the rescue🤗😉

From me with big big hair, busy days, and raising my boy in the ‘80s… to watching him become an incredible father himself.
Life moves fast, but some things never change… the love, the bond, and the way your children continue to cheer you on through every season of life.
Justin has always been one of my biggest supporters — from my early mom days to this chapter of traveling, creating, and living life fully. And now seeing 3 generations together? That’s the real blessing. 🙏🏽
Sometimes the greatest flex isn’t fame, money, or followers… it’s looking around and realizing your family still genuinely loves being together.
Three generations strong… and my heart is full.

Bali has been on my heart for years… and I finally said YES. 🌴
So many of us keep pushing our dreams down the road—waiting for the “right time,” the perfect moment, or more certainty. But here’s the truth: that moment may never come.
My niece and I took a trip to Italy right before the pandemic changed everything. We could have easily said, “Let’s wait.” But we didn’t—and that trip became a memory we’ll treasure forever.
That experience taught me something I carry with me now:
✨ Don’t postpone joy.
✨ Don’t wait to live your life.
✨ And don’t measure your dreams against anyone else’s.
Travel looks different for everyone. What matters is that you honor what calls YOU.
If you’ve been thinking about taking that trip, making that move, or saying yes to something that excites you… consider this your sign.
Go. While you can. While you’re able. While your heart is still pulling you there. 💫

Swipe left to see more. Living in a dream for another day. Bali is everything I imagined and more…
We are in Ubud which is the cultural, artistic, and spiritual heart of Bali. Today we’re off to a tour of the region and I’m excited to check out the rice paddies, waterfalls, and temples. Keep checking in for more of Bali.

A monkey literally stole my eyeglasses right off my face!!
We were forewarned by everyone including staff, and a woman who had just witnessed phones and sunglasses getting stolen, and the monkeys running off into the trees, never to be seen again!
We were careful, or so we thought.
I held onto the rim of my glasses while walking , and we held our phones securely in front us.
I felt someone push me. It felt like a person, until I realized it was a monkey. Then we stopped to ask a quick question, dropped our guard and Mr. Monkey swooped down and grabbed my glasses before I even realized it! He was that quick. A local guide saved the day by throwing a banana at him, and he dropped my glasses.
I saw him up in that tree and thought they would be gone forever! Grateful for the guide. We didn’t see him in action crafty suckas!!😂🙈🐒
