Shift into Spring: Book a Trip
There’s nothing like travel to reset the soul. Whether it’s a nearby escape or an epic journey, time away can bring fresh perspective, deep rest, and a sense of renewal.

This Spring, I’m taking a wellness-inspired sailing on Oceania Riviera—exploring the beautiful BC coastline and heading southbound from Anchorage to Vancouver. It’s a dream itinerary and a heartfelt reward for some meaningful work I’ve done helping others discover the joy of travel.

Where would you like to go to reconnect with yourself?

Balance isn’t just a goal—it’s the key to a life well-lived. ☀️🌵 This sunset in the desert reminds me that when we align our time with what truly matters, peace naturally follows. Funny how this pie chart—work, rest, health, and happiness—just happens to form a peace sign. Coincidence? Maybe. But a great reminder to create harmony in all areas of life. ✨ ”
