This is 34!

Big Libra Energy, New Rituals & My Latest Obsessions

Woah, another trip around the sun! October 13th marked my 34th birthday, and yes, I'm feeling all the Libra vibes. Let’s talk about how I spent it (spoiler: I’m still celebrating), what’s on my current obsession list , and reflect on what is 34. 

When I was thinking about how to spend my birthday, Disneyland kept calling my name. I love all the spooky season decor—so cute, right?! And with my birthday on a weekend this year, it was the perfect excuse for some family fun. I was buzzing to finally check out the Haunted Mansion. We had this hilarious running joke about the virtual queue—seriously, we waited ALL DAY, only for it to finally say we were "ready" at 9 PM! Spoiler alert: we had to bail at 7 PM. Uh, no thanks. I was mentally ready for bed! LOL

Woke up Sunday with a full-blown cold. Not the birthday gift I wanted, but hey, I already planned on a slow Sunday, so it was kind of perfect timing. I couldn’t resist grabbing one of my favorite breakfasts from Black Cow Cafe in Montrose, CA. I went for the Chilaquiles, and my hubby surprised me with a delicious cinnamon roll. It was the perfect way to relax in bed while binge-watching Gilmore Girls. Why didn’t anyone tell me how adorable this show is?! I’m hooked. I ended the day with a sunset drive that felt like the perfect balance after Saturday’s magic and fun. Except for the cold!

Now, as I head into 34, I’m all about embodiment. What does that mean? It's connecting with my physical, emotional, and sensory experiences in a way that aligns with who I am becoming. Here’s how I’m incorporating it with a few of my favorite women-led brands lately (no, this isn’t sponsored, just pure love!)
