Travel Diary: Sedona

This past weekend, my best friend and I had the best weekend up in Sedona, Arizona. We both work for an amazing company, Rodan + Fields, and the company treated Jenna to pick a luxury weekend vacation of her choosing! She chose to go to the beautiful Sedona and she picked me as her guest! It also happened to be her birthday weekend and so we had lots to celebrate. We spent tons of girl time drinking wine and overlooking the beautiful view at our resort, we had a spa day, went on a jeep tour, shopped in the town, and aimlessly drove and explored new places. We also seamlessly listened and danced to the new Selena Gomez and Kygo son on repeat. It was basically the best weekend ever. 

During the trip, I had a lot of time to reflect on life and everything thats happened over the past two years since starting my skincare business. I have grown personally and professionally so much and I would have never been where I am now without it. I would have never have met Jenna or my many other friends I have met through this company and there's no way I would have been able to go on such an incredible trip. Hard work truly does pay off and I feel like this trip was just a small example to me that we can truly do anything we put our minds to and work hard in!

No matter what you do, I hope you do it fully and with everything you've got! It is the most incredible feeling to wake up each morning and know that you are doing EXACTLY what you are supposed to do. If you aren't doing that now, set some goals for yourself and your future and so eventually you can start doing what you LOVE!

I'd love to know, what is something you have ALWAYS wanted to do but never have been able to? Comment below and let me know! 

Have a great day everyone!

Oahu Adventures: Ehukai Pillbox Hike

Since moving to Oahu, I’ve seen my fair share of beautiful places. This hike though, truly highlights my favorite part of the island, North Shore. Danny and I did this short, 30-minute hike to the pill box that overlooks the entire North Shore. It was fun to be able to name the beaches down below and see all the surfers catching waves (There were GREAT waves that day).

There’s actually historic pillboxes all over the island which were used in World War II. In a nutshell, people stood watch in these bunkers in case the enemy attacked during the war. Now these pillboxes serve as a tourist hike destination with graffiti covering most of the surface spaces. If you are ever in Oahu, you have to check one out!

Hugs + Kissees,
