THE POWER OF I AM

June 15, 2018

“I am is one of the most powerful statements we can make. Whatever follows “I am” starts the creation of it.” – KRISTEN B U T L E R Have you stopped lately to listen to what you’re saying about yourself? The words you choose, the actions you take that reinforce these thoughts? I started my year off recognizing this truth by tapping into the word I AM. By doing so, I realized how easily […]

Follow my blog with Bloglovin “When you want something, all the universe conspires in helping you achieve it.” – THE A L C H E M I S T This story is simple but special. When I first moved to Los Angeles, I was constantly enamored by this particular structure. Nestled discreetly between shops on Sunset Blvd. stood El Chavo; a lively concoction of Moroccan design meets Havana flair. Earlier this month, the Mexican restaurant with the mean […]

“It’s not how I fill my day, but rather, how does my day fill me?” -M O R G A N RYAN Last week I had the opportunity to actualize a goal I set for myself at the beginning of 2016. With my hope of finding the perfect space to fuse my taste in music, fashion, art and perspective, I found the magical world of Snapchat takeovers. Taking over Trendly’s Snapchat proved to be the ideal gig for my personality and […]

” We don’t stop playing because we grow old; we grow old because we stop playing.” -GEORGE B E R N A R D SHAW I believe we all seek a life well lived. How we each define such is another story. To me, it is a life of balance. Sounds simple yet is much easier said than done. Last month I decided to test my ability to create balance between work and play. I […]

“To forgive is to set a prisoner free and realize that prisoner was you.” – LEWIS B. SMEDES PRESS PLAY Valentine’s Day seems to be a holiday that stirs up some mixed feelings. The special occasion, which celebrates the purest of human emotions, has in a way been tainted by consumerism and the demand to have a sweetheart. This can easily warp one into believing your worth is dependent on external circumstances. Without realizing it, many of us have bought into the marketing schemes […]

“Poker is a fascinating, wonderful, intricate adventure on the high seas of human nature.” – David A. Daniel The notion of one man’s trash as another’s treasure is far from unusual to me. I mean, let’s be honest, you can’t share the same name with Captain Morgan and not have some of the same qualities. In a debate, he and I would probably not see eye to eye on our idea of ‘treasure.’ We would agree […]

“The future belongs to those who believe in the beauty of their dreams.” -Eleanor Roosevelt A few weeks ago I attended a Dinner Lab event at the MaRS gallery in DTLA on behalf of Bunch Magazine. Arriving solo, I found I was in the company of a mature crowd. A situation that could have easily been intimidating I strangely found inspiring. I took the humid night in stride, determined to make the most of it […]

“True creativity does not come easily; creativity is born of risk and refined from failure.” -Erwin McManus, The Artisan Soul Let us not be confused, creativity is not a gift given to the rare few. Rather, it is a rare few who take the risk to be creative. It’s as if we’ve been playing a game of telephone and during our correspondence our words became misinterpreted. You see, we are all born creators. So why do […]
