I’m back with another way to #romanticizeroutine

I’m back with another way to #romanticizeroutines and this time I invited my mom over for a wholesome #crafternoon just in time for Mother’s Day!

I made the most scrumptious snack plate using my favorite cookies and crackers by @snackbacktonature! They’re basically better-for-you versions of your childhood classic snacks and I love that they don’t have any artificial colors, flavors, or sweeteners. (Look for their new packaging at a retailer near you!)

My mom is now officially hooked on the PB Creme cookies and I know you will be too

My baby girl joined us to create handprints so that we could add them to our painted wooden frames and they turned out sooo cute!!

My mom and I haven’t crafted together since I was a little girl so this was such a wholesome moment and the perfect way to celebrate our first Mother’s Day as a mom and grandma.

Honestly I can’t think of a better way to start the day than with a sunrise walk, light yoga in the sand and ocean dip ☀️

What a reminder of how BEAUTIFUL this life can be if only we take a moment to look around and notice 🌴🌺 🌊

Moments that brought me joy during our first few days back in my hometown 🌊☀️

✨ cotton candy sunsets
✨ romance reads by the pool
✨ matching with my mini
✨ a sweet treat during our morning walk
✨ bird watching on the balcony
✨ our cute beach set up with my fav people
✨ golden hour on the beach
✨ evenings with this view
✨ the 3 musketeers
✨ daily ocean dip

I used to wonder why people bothered to travel with their babies when they won’t remember anything. And now I realize that there’s nothing more special than watching Lily experience all life’s little joys for the first time 💕

#TidePartner With my first Mother’s Day around t

#TidePartner With my first Mother’s Day around the corner as a new mom, I’ve been thinking a lot about some of the key home care tips my own Korean mother passed down to me. 🧹

She taught me the value of bringing nature indoors, reusing and recycling as much as possible, removing your shoes when you walk inside, and always wearing gloves when doing dishes. ✨🫧

Most of all, she taught me not to fear life’s little messes, because there’s always a way to tackle them. That’s why I love using Tide evo—especially for food stains! These innovative laundry tiles from @TideLaundry dissolve fast and leave our clothes super clean and fresh. 🫧

If you’re in Colorado be sure to click the link in my story to find them at your favorite local retailer!

Looking for the perfect way to prepare for the wee

Looking for the perfect way to prepare for the week ahead? I swear by this 3 step #SundayReset because it always makes me feel so much more refreshed, productive and recharged before kicking off a new week ~ and it’s been especially helpful as a new mom 💕

1️⃣ Freshen up your space: this is the time to give your home a fresh start by doing a load of laundry, decluttering and/or buying yourself flowers to display 💐

2️⃣ Prep for the week: you all know I’m a planner so I love taking a few moments to map out the week ahead, plan workouts (and pencil them in or book them) and go grocery shopping

3️⃣ Rest & recharge: Sundays should also be a time of relaxation so check in with your body and mind to see what you’re craving! Maybe it’s a walk in a park, cozying up with a good book, taking a nap or meeting up with a friend for coffee.

#FordAmbassador You all know how much I love catch

#FordAmbassador You all know how much I love catching the sunrise and this morning’s solo date was just what I needed. 🌅

I drove my 2025 @ford Explorer® SUV to one of my favorite local parks and got there just in time to watch the sun come up over the reservoir. It was so quiet and peaceful – definitely worth the drive and the perfect way to start the day.

Now that the weather is warming up I’m excited to do this more often and bring my family with me for the next one! ☀️✨

If you see this post, just say hi 👋🏼! And maybe share a little something about yourself because I’d love to get to know you all! 💕🦋

Since it’s been SO long since I’ve shared some fun facts about myself, here are 🔟 things you may not know about me:

✨ I moved to Denver from NYC but before that I’ve lived in Florida, Germany, Korea, Oklahoma and Utah! (airforce brat over here 🙋🏻‍♀️)

✨ I’m half Korean, a quarter Ecuadorian and Swedish ~ but sadly I only speak English

✨ I started practicing yoga over a decade ago after a really traumatic breakup. It was the catalyst to adopting a healthy lifestyle and the reason I started my blog

✨ I’m obsessed with houseplants and currently have 30 different plants in my home 🌿

✨ I’ve always had way too many hobbies and love to try new things! But it also means I’m not particularly amazing at one thing 😅 Jill of all trades kinda vibes

✨ I rescued my pup Nina 12 years ago in Florida and my pup Chip in NYC 6 years ago! Advocating for pet adoption is super important to me and I follow/support a lot of rescue groups 🐶

✨ I’m a big dessert gal and baked goods (especially chocolate chip cookies) are my weakness

✨ June is my fav month, Fall is my fav season and Christmas is my fav holiday!

✨ I am a new mama to a beautiful baby girl after experiencing pregnancy loss a little over a year ago. She has brought so much joy into my life and I’ve never known a love quite like this ❤️

✨ I’m an ENFJ to a tee: energized by social interactions, an empath who makes decisions based on my values and emotions, organized and value structure/routines, and am always drawn to the “big picture”. Life is full of endless possibilities in my eyes

Let me know if we have anything in common!

Part 8 of Romanticizing Routines ~ a mini series where I’m sharing simple ways to make everyday moments just a little more intentional and special 💕

Now that Spring is in full bloom, one of the easiest ways to #romanticizeyourlife is to take pieces of your normal routine outdoors ~ because literally nothing feels more beautiful than brushing your teeth in the morning sunlight or drinking a matcha while surrounded by blooms 🌷🦋☀️

It’s not all about aesthetics either because getting outside for some fresh air and morning sunlight have been proven to do wonders for your mental wellbeing!

So even if all you do is step out for a few minutes of peace while you sip your morning beverage of choice, I highly encourage you to try this for yourself 🌼

{ps thank you for those who voted on my poll yesterday! I saw that this series is def a fan fav so I’ll be continuing it for awhile}

#AD 🎉 SWEEPSTAKES ALERT! 🎉Now that it’s getting warmer outside I’ve been VERY excited to start my mornings with cold brew. This Cinnamon Caramel Cold Brew is sooo good and the best part is, I can make it in the comfort of my own home instead of splurging at a coffee shop every day!

All you need is @stokcoldbrew and @silk cinnamon caramel plant-based cold foam — both of which you can pick up at your local @target (just in case you needed another reason to shop there hehe). If you want to be a little *extra* like me, you can make cold brew ice cubes and drizzle your glass with a caramel sauce of your choice.

And if Cinnamon Caramel isn’t your vibe, I highly recommend International Delight’s French Vanilla cold foam creamer too! I’ve partnered with International Delight, SToK, and Silk to give away a Home’Rista Kit to one lucky winner—you could be the one! ☕✨

Good luck! 💕#HomeRista_Sweepstakes
