How To Visit The Muyil Ruins & Float the Lazy River in Tulum

💕 TODAY IS A BIG DAY! 💕
.
3+ years of hard work in the bag, my sweet husband’s new album The Lost Art of Longing is out today
.
It’s already reached #1 on iTunes dance charts around the world, and is #23 over all. 🙌🏻
.
I am so proud of him, myself and what we have been able to accomplish together. Team work legit makes the dream work.
.
Sometimes I think people make the assumption that @BT has a team of people working for him in regards to social media, management, assistants, etc.
.
But the truth is, the two people in this photo, ARE the team of people. (Not including our incredible label, but you get the picture)
.
For an album to enter the world, finishing the music for it is only the starting point. Everything that comes after is such an undertaking and a labor of love. I’m so grateful for the amazing community of fans @BT has and for all of the kind words.
.
I know I am biased, but this truly is my favorite album he has done to date, and is the exact dose of positivity we all need right now during what has been such a sh*t year.
.
So! If you’re looking for some music to make you happy, to make you feel less alone, to remind you that you’re loved or just music to drive in your car at night time with the windows down - this is is. Enjoy ❤️

🌻 Summer - it's approaching the end but I feel like i'm still waiting for it to arrive.
.
This season of life is one moving goal post after another, except now I'm not even sure what the goal post is
.
Every single day I am working on acceptance of what life currently is, thankfully am able to do so by anchoring as much as I can in gratitude.
.
Not being able to travel has been so different...this is the most I have been in one place for nearly 10 years. Summer especially is a busy time for me & @BT gig wise, but with no live music, we've been home.
.
That being said, there have been some blessings in that and I am fully aware of them. Some of them are big, some are little.
.
Here is a bit of what I have been up to these past few months of quarantine.
.
🌻Have spent every day working side by side with my partner in crime & still want to hang out.
🌻Starting May 4th, I began working out every single day. I've not been able to do this for a while due to health reasons, so this is huge for me. (shoutout to @pvolve & @soulcycle)
🌻I've taken 2 marketing & email courses, and have built 10+ leadpages for @BT
🌻We successfully launched a piece of software in mid June and it's been a huge success so far
🌻I filmed @BT in the studio for a music video (which is out now!)
🌻I've got my thyroid numbers under control (more on this in coming weeks!)
🌻Being at home meant not missing the sunflowers blooming and fireflies
🌻I've read 17 books since March
🌻Completed a 5 day juice cleanse & am currently on week 2 of a #Whole30
🌻And more things I can't even recall!
.
Honestly seeing it all written out feels really good - it's been a whirlwind.
.
That being said, I look forward to a break. We may get wild and road trip up to Maine in a few weeks!
.
Tell me 5 things you've been up to lately! Would love to know what everyone has been up to.

🌎 Happy Earth Day Friends 🌎⠀
.⠀
Sharing a photo I’ve shared before as it’s one of my favorites. From a tiny island in the Caribbean named Saba.⠀
.⠀
This earth day has me reflecting a lot on time spent traveling and what a an actual gift it is to see the world.⠀
.⠀
This photo can’t be further from what my actual reality is right now. Pictured is tanned skin, salty hair and care free.⠀
.⠀
Reality is messy bun that not even dry shampoo can save, a pedicure hanging on for dear life and destroying random strangers at online monopoly at night. (My family won’t play monopoly with me anymore. Apparently I’m “too competitive” lol)⠀
.⠀
Idk about you guys - but I really look forward to traveling again. But for now, Mother Earth is getting a lil break that I’m sure is appreciated.⠀
.⠀
I know from my own experience, we are seeing so many interesting and rare birds in our yard, some of which I’ve never seen. (NEW BIRD WATCHER OVER HERE. quarantine goalz)⠀
.⠀
Anyway - for now, I’ll be enjoying some spring time walks in the woods with @bt, taking too many photos of my animals (is there such a thing?) and be mentally planning trips for us to take when it’s possible soon. (The first one being to LA to get these roots done 😂)⠀
.⠀
What is your current quarantine reality on this fine earth day?⠀

🇫🇷 FUNNY STORY BEHIND THIS VIEW 🇫🇷
.⠀
Being at home quarantined has given me a lot of time to reflect on some of my favorite memories of trips. Some of the memories are beautiful, some of them are crazy, and some of them are pretty comedic as well.⠀
.⠀
Two years ago, @BT and I spent one night in Paris for our anniversary. I booked our stay at the Hotel Regina because I wanted us to have the picture perfect view.⠀
.⠀
Our room did not disappoint and the hotel itself was incredible.⠀
.⠀
On our morning of departure, we ordered a big room service breakfast. It was such a beautiful spread. Scrambled eggs, bacon, fresh pastries, espresso, all on the hotels signature fine china. Even the butter had its own special ornate dish.⠀
.⠀
Brian was still in the shower when it got delivered, so I pushed our room service table over towards this window so we could have the view while we ate breakfast. We were leaving in a short time so I wanted us to soak it up as much as possible.⠀
.⠀
WELL HERE IS WHERE THINGS GO TERRIBLY WRONG LOL.⠀
.⠀
Now if you’re not familiar with the tables hotels use for in room dining - typically the have little wings that fold in and out, so the table can easily roll in and out of doorways. I have opened and closed them myself many times before so I was like, no problem, I’ll open this bad boy up.⠀
.⠀
I’m noodling around under the table and was having trouble getting the table to lock in place...I found what I *thought* was the switch to lock the wings and then all of the sudden...⠀
.⠀
THE TABLE SHOT UP LIKE A SLING SHOT AND THE BEAUTIFUL BREAKFAST, CHINA, AND EVEN THE LITTLE BUTTER DISH BROKE IN AN EXTRAORDINARY WAY.⠀
.⠀
Brian came running out to see if I was okay because it made a really loud crash. He walked into a breakfast crime scene. Me - looking mortified - and breakfast and glass allllllll in the carpet of this incredible room.⠀
.⠀
I felt SO guilty, mortified and embarrassed. I wanted the floor to open up and me go in it lol. I could not face the hotel staff and was worried they were about to go stereotypical French on my American self.⠀
.⠀
Well! Brian called the front desk and explained what happened. CONT. in comments below🇫🇷

Where is the first place you want to travel when t

Where is the first place you want to travel when things are back to “normal”?⠀
.⠀
Being forced to stay home has made me more grateful than ever for the ability to travel.
.⠀
I had the sad thought of, what if you could no longer travel long distances for good?⠀
.⠀
Travel is such a gift, and one I’ll never take for granted ever again.
.⠀
I read a book recently that has me quite fixated on visiting the south of France on the coast. (It’s called Meet Me in Monaco by @hazelgaynor and a perfect escape for the current reality)
.⠀
It may be a while before that can happen. But until it does - I’ll visit in my mind. Shut my eyes, listen to French jazz and slow dance with my husband in the kitchen. Because tbh, I’m even more grateful for that.⠀
.⠀
So - if you shut your eyes right now too - what destination do you visit in your mind?⠀
.⠀
.⠀
.⠀

🌸”Where flowers bloom, so does hope.”
.
That quote from Lady Bird Johnson seems appropriate for today. It’s the start of spring, and while nature is reflecting that, what our world currently feels like is lacking.
.
In these times of uncertainty, I find myself trying to focus on what *is* in my control. Because everything else - well, there just isn’t much I can do.
.
To help myself through these difficult times, here is what I’m doing:
.
•getting enough rest.
•eating healthy & staying hydrated (don’t underestimate this one)
•turned off the news & started reading it instead. The news is too much stimulation for me right now - reading it feels more manageable.
•getting outside. Get in the sun if you can and take a walk in nature. It is food for your soul
•snuggling my pets. Natural Xanax. Thank god for pets am I right? They comfort me so much.
•laugh. If it’s a meme or an episode of The Office I’ve seen 26 times, humor is helping tremendously.
•connect. Call and text to help yourself forget you are isolated at all.
•take a bath if you can. Baths are the best. Soak away your anxiety nightly.
.
It feels like a lot of outside pressure right now to be spending this time at home working on some huge personal growth, project etc. And while I think that’s awesome, don’t punish yourself if you need time to take care of your nervous system and anxiety / stress. Not all days will be the same. Take care of yourselves.
.
What is something you are doing for yourself during this time of uncertainty?
.

🌅DISCONNECT TO RECONNECT🌅⠀
.⠀
Recently got back from a week in Jamaica where @BT and I did nothing but swim in the sea and read.⠀
.⠀
It’s incredible what time away from your devices can do for your brain - and honestly make you realize how attached you are to your phone.⠀
.⠀
It had been almost two years since the last time Brian and I took a trip just the two of us, and every time we do it reminds me how much we need it.⠀
.⠀
Life gets so busy - it gets stressful - it’s unpredictable. Time goes by so quickly. Taking the time to be with one another is what makes it all worth it.⠀
.⠀
On this trip we made a pact to be at the beach every evening for sunset. Some nights it was cloudy, but a couple of times it was magic. Seeing the sun sink down beneath the horizon to signal that the day is done.⠀
.⠀
Slowing down to watch the sunset reminds me that every day is a blessing, a new day, new chances. What a gift we have to treat every day like a clean slate if we choose..⠀
.⠀
So here’s to more slowing down. More disconnecting from device to connect in person. And to watching as many sunsets as you can.⠀
.⠀
Have you ever done a digital detox? Why or why not?⠀
.⠀
.⠀
.⠀

A few months ago, @BT told my that my favorite color is tennis ball.⠀

If you peaked in my closet lately, you’d probably agree 😂⠀

What color is your closet comprised of the most?⠀

Mine is black, neon yellow and leopard. Issa vibe.⠀

I woke up feeling so heavy this morning, as I’m sure a lot of others did today too.⠀
.⠀
Hearing about the loss of Kobe Bryant, his daughter, and the others onboard that helicopter yesterday is truly heartbreaking.⠀
.⠀
This morning, I couldn’t help from thinking of the family members who woke up today, had a split second before they remembered what their new reality is. I cannot imagine the pain they must be feeling.⠀
.⠀
It’s unusual for me to be able to feel so much sadness for someone I’ve never met. But it’s something I experience quite often, as I’m sure other empaths can relate. (INFP at your service.)⠀
.⠀
Life is so fleeting. Every morning when we wake up, put our feet on the ground and stand up is a blessing. Don’t take it for granted. Tell people you love them as much as you can.⠀
.⠀
Hugs to anyone who’s struggling today about anything, a loss, a conflict, a bad day. You are loved 💕⠀
.⠀

✨Keeping it Analog✨⠀ .⠀ On a trip to Berli

✨Keeping it Analog✨⠀
.⠀
On a trip to Berlin over New Year’s, I kept spotting these film photo booths and was loving it. We used one and it was so fun to get our strip of photos still wet from the developer!⠀
.⠀
Something you may not know about me is I went to art school for photography for two years.⠀
.⠀
During my time there I spent the majority of my days in the darkroom (both b&w and color). I also met one of my best friends there as well (@jennifercatherinephotography)⠀
.⠀
Film is a dying art. And I get it. It’s time consuming. It’s expensive. But something about it is so romantic and timeless. Like taking a train, writing a letter, listening to an album on vinyl.⠀
.⠀
It’s like these ways of life we’ve replaced with more immediate solutions, when we do use them again, remind us to slow down and be present.⠀
.⠀
There is a feeling that can’t be explained, but things that are made with intent and legit by human hands have such depth to them.⠀
.⠀
The excitement of watching a print develop before your very eyes in the darkroom is thrilling. Especially when it’s a shot you remember taking and being like “that one will be amazing, I can just tell.”⠀
.⠀
I don’t pick up my film camera as much as I’d like. I grab my iPhone like most of you and am amazed at the quality of camera I can carry in my back pocket. But I hope for myself, this year I can remind myself to slow down and be more present. (I also dream of having a little darkroom in our basement someday!)⠀
.⠀
Pick up the camera. Read that book. Listen to an album and not an algorithm playlist. Remind yourself that just because it’s easier doesn’t always mean it’s better.⠀
.⠀
Is there any old school thing that you still love and enjoy?⠀
.⠀
.⠀
.⠀
.⠀

✨Don’t look back, you’re not going that way✨⠀
.⠀
Hard to believe that not only another year has gone by, but an entire decade.⠀
.⠀
These past ten years have given me so much. I have grown so much as an individual, as a partner, as a friend.⠀
.⠀
The ups and downs life gives us, they are all gifts. Even if in the moment we don’t see it or understand it.⠀
.⠀
I love and appreciate all of it, and look forward to what these next 10 years bring me as well.⠀
.⠀
Happy New Year to you all💕⠀
