👋🏽 Haaaay ! ¿Cómo estás?

Hey Pocho fam! This week’s dispatch comes with a little stillness, a little movement, and a lot of reflection. From quiet moments at a San Diego cemetery to writing to you mid-flight on my way to Chicago, I’m reminded how life’s rhythm is a mix of pausing to appreciate what’s around us and leaning into what’s ahead. Wherever you find yourself today, take a deep breath—there’s beauty in both. ✨

The stillness at this cemetery

I took a picture of the palm-tree-lined roads at this iconic San Diego cemetery. This place has become a favorite for off-leash dog walks (don't tell the gravedigger). Cemeteries get a bad wrap, in my view, they are a place full of love.

OPTIMISM: 💖

A proverb from Mexico

Altitude Check ✈️✨

Writing to you from 30,000 feet, somewhere over the Midwest, heading into Chicago. Funny how travel always reminds me that life’s biggest opportunities often start by simply moving—toward new places, new people, and new perspectives. Grateful for the chance to keep exploring and stay connected, even when I’m between time zones. Wherever you are this week, I hope you’re finding little ways to move closer to the life you want. 🌎💭

Thanks for hanging out this week, mi gente. Whether you’re chasing big dreams or just taking small steps forward, keep looking ahead and holding space for joy along the way. Hit reply and let me know what’s on your mind—your wins, your worries, or even just what you’re binge-watching. Catch you next Friday! 💌🌎

Con amor,

Tony U
