Here’s a question: do you celebrate Valentine’s Day? I know that this holiday is a hot-button topic and a controversial holiday. Some people love Valentine’s Day. Others hate it. Or don’t care. Is it a somewhat contrived holiday pushed by corporate America to get us to buy more stuff? Yeah, probably. But it’s also a chance to tell the people in our lives that we love and appreciate them. And in my book, there’s nothing wrong with that. I’ve always been a big believer in celebrating love – of all kinds – so I like this holiday. I don’t think Valentine’s Day is just about romance.

Hi friends! It’s been a minute since I’ve just chatted with you. A lot is happening in my little corner of the world, so I thought it was time to catch you up on life lately. 2023 was a big year. Not in terms of new countries I traveled to (although I did have an incredible adventure on a Southwest road trip!) but in terms of the work I did behind the scenes. Toiling away at my desk, day after day, putting together the pieces of a puzzle that had eluded me for the longest time, but suddenly came into sharp focus. I like to think that my years of soul-searching, reading self-help and motivation ..read more

Why You Need to Go on a Southwest Road Trip
Let's Be Merry

For years, it has been a dream of mine to explore the American Southwest on a good ol’ fashioned Southwest road trip. This year, my husband and I finally made that dream come true. In May, we embarked on a two-week Southwest road trip that took us through much of Arizona and southern Utah. In a word, the trip was EPIC. The scenery was BEYOND. And the trip rekindled in both of us a desire to spend more time in nature, appreciating the exquisite beauty of our world. (Don’t even get me started on the Grand Canyon!) Now that I’ve had a chance to fully digest everything we saw and did on this trip ..read more

How I Faced My Fears Hiking Angels Landing, One of the Most Dangerous Trails in America
Let's Be Merry
by Merry Lerner

Angels Landing. Have you heard of it? The trail in Zion National Park is considered one of the scariest hikes in America and for good reason. For the last half mile of the trail, you need to navigate the narrow spine of the peak which has sheer, 1500-foot drop-offs on either side. If you look at the picture below, I am in the white shirt and the drop-off is just to the right of me. This trail is not for the faint of heart or those afraid of heights. Of course, I am one of those people who is very afraid of heights. But for some reason, I knew I had to face my fears and do this hike. I am not ..read more
