Hey mama,

Whew. Where do I even begin?

Tulum — that magical beach town in Mexico — wasn’t supposed to be this kind of trip. I was supposed to be there for a birthday celebration with friends, a little fun in the sun, and maybe a few margaritas.

But it turned into so much more.

After my friends left, I had a few days completely alone. And in that quiet — free from work stress, family needs, and my never-ending to-do list — something shifted.

I got rest. Real rest.

I cried. I laughed. I danced naked in my Airbnb.

I dreamed about the life I actually want.

I let go of old stuff that was weighing me down.

And when I came home… I made changes.

For the first time in a long time, I felt excited about the future. Not because of a title or a milestone — but because I felt aligned.

✨ I shared a short vlog about the experience over on my YouTube channel. If you’ve been feeling like you need a reset, a break, or even just a reminder that it’s OK to take time for YOU — I hope you’ll watch.

(And guess what🥳 , I hit 100 subscribers — thank you so much for being part of this!)

I hope it encourages you to plan a little time for yourself soon. You deserve that.

With love,

Patrice 💛
