Goodness gracious! It’s been a little over a week since we dropped Maria off at the airport and we’re still processing and adjusting to being without her. 🥹 It’s not fair to write just a handful of words about what a treasure she is and how much we enjoyed her company for six weeks but here we are. Those six weeks changed us. I see so much of myself (younger me of course) in you. Your adventurous spirit, your bravery, your loyalty, your love of animals, and ability to adapt to new situations. Life isn’t always easy for us but you have so much to give and way more strength than I ever did. It’s true that we are only chosen family but that doesn’t matter. You will always always have a home with us, wherever we are. I cannot wait to see what you do with this beautiful life you have ahead of you. I am sure it will be epic! I have to thank and - your actual family…. Thank you for trusting us with your girl and for allowing us to know her and through her, connect with you again. We will be seeing you soon. Los queremos mucho mucho mucho

In my day, seeing pictures of people’s vacations was considered a punishment.

She was the wisest but what Betty was obviously missing was slow motion running scenes on the beach. 🌊🤌🏽🏃🏽‍♂️

Joking aside, here’s my wordy take on last night’s Oscar situation through the lens of a parent to young boys and what we talked about at breakfast this morning (because I know those fifth graders are gonna talk about this at school)…
When you inflict pain (physical or psychological) on others, they are not the only ones you hurt. You may leave their cheek bruised and cause trauma but the hurt it causes to YOU is much deeper. Becoming the embodiment of violence changes you. It breaks you from the inside. It was evident in Will’s speech last night just how much he was hurting and struggling with the reality of what he did… trying desperately to make sense of it.
So, what I said to my boys is this. If you every think getting violent is the answer, remember that speech. Remember the pain that follows. Because on a soul level, I believe it’s effects will ripple through your life in ways you cannot measure or take back. Will and Chris will both need to process the trauma of what happened and hell yes, Will needs to apologize.
But, the saddest part of the whole thing is that in his perceived effort to protect his family, he set an example for his kids that will harm them more than it will protect them. Let’s not do the same with ours. Let’s make sure we don’t glorify violence and instead remember to talk about hurt and trauma to our kids and that they know when to recognize that hurt people hurt people and that everyone deserves respect even when they’re being disrespectful.
To be that vessel for peace and love, we have to do better than this but also give grace to those who struggle with it because motions are brutally hard to regulate when they become overwhelming. We won’t always get it right but I hope we don’t let this moment go by as just a crazy night at the Oscars. I hope we take some hard lessons with us and pass those along to whoever looks to us for guidance. As Michelle Obama says, when they go low, you go high. That’s the lesson we need.
Wordy rant over. Happy Monday!✌🏽😬

This is supposedly what 11 and 8 looks like. A little slippery… Who knew?
Segway to… We fall down as parents a lot. We forget to regulate our emotions - or sometimes are unable to. We forget to see things from where they’re sitting, not from our tired, adult point of view. But we’re learning (very much as we go). We don’t let the falls stop us from humbling ourselves before them or from loving our kids fully. We have unwavering respect for the humans that are blooming before our eyes. It’s quite a miracle, actually and I believe they’re here for a reason. The world needs their goodness. Mom just needs them to pick up those socks that have been on the stairs for a week but hey… beggars cannot be choosers.
Happy birthday to my two magnificent not-so-little-anymore boys. May your days be many and may you enjoy every one.

Strolling gently into another year hopeful. Hopeful for more compassion and less cynicism, for more time with family and friends and less time scrolling, for more justice and peace throughout the world and less expectation of perfection from ourselves and others. We’re all doing the best we can. Let’s keep going in the spirit of hope.
Maybe that’s the Christmas card we didn’t send. Love, us.
Happy New Year from the Tripodis. ✌🏽

Happy happy National dog day from our one of a kind Rosie girl and the honorable Duke of Edinburg (Texas). We couldn’t imagine life without them and although Floyd, the cat won’t admit it, he couldn’t either. 🖤🤍

It was never my intention to become a student again but something inside of me said Sathya, there has to be more. There has to be more that you can do. There has to be more that you can learn. People need your passion for justice. So, after many years of experiencing life and adulthood and parenthood and running a business and everything in between, here I am about to sit down for my first day of school.
I’ll be spending the next couple of years working toward a degree in Mexican American Studies through University of Texas at El Paso online. My hope is to eventually work at a non-profit that provides services and legal support to immigrants and asylum seekers. The hope is to do something to be of use to a population that desperately needs it and to use my language and cultural knowledge to help bridge the enormous gap in quality of life that exists for the immigrant community.
So, here I go. A student once again. This time with a clear purpose and fierce determination. But do I even remember how to write a paper anymore? I guess we’ll soon find out 😬.
First day of school jitters aren’t just for kids but thankfully the coffee is strong and my diffuser is running on max.
Well, here I go! Wish me luck!

I wish I could feel the full joy of sending my boys off to second and fifth grade today. I wish I had the mental and emotional bandwidth to take their picture in front of the school, smiling and full of excitement. I wish I could feel my way past the disappointment in the way humans are behaving right now so that I could just enjoy the moment.
After 1.5+ years at home, my kids are back in person but was a nearly impossible choice.
Our school district does not require masks in the building despite a local courts health order that went into effect on Sunday. They waited until last night at 10:30 PM to even go as far as “recommending” masks. Our superintendent went in tv last week and bold faced lied about that. 😐
At last nights board meeting a woman got up and screamed about how Donald trump is our one true president. Another screamed “we will not comply” like a battle cry at Sterling. And these are the people the school board is pandering to. Belligerent psychopaths.
It would seem like a simple thing to teach your kids to care for their community. To sacrifice a little comfort for the well-being of others. Like how we make them wear seatbelts even if they’re uncomfortable… for their own protection. But no. Not here in Dripping Springs. There’s no science here. Just politics.
So, while my cousin, who is my exact age lies in a hospital bed on oxygen with opacities in his lungs from covid and my kids go back to a building full of people, where it will undoubtedly keep spreading, I’m here… poolside for a moment at my neighbors beautiful house, watering their plants, feeding their cats and pouring a bucket of tears on my shirt. Because it’s been hard on everyone and it’s even harder knowing how little people seem to care.
But I’m also grateful. So very grateful for the people who have been our small but mighty community for change and for the teachers and staff who are making the best of an impossible situation.
Happy first day of of school to all the parents struggling through this challenging transition and let’s keep advocating for our kids and pray we come out stronger on the other end.

Three generations of beach lovers ❤️
My dad is always teaching me to explore the world, live simply, not take myself too seriously and enjoy what’s right in front of me. I hope it’s rubbed off enough to pass it on to my kids. His favorite things are meat, potatoes, good wine, giving emotional speeches at family gatherings and 2-3 hour walks on the beach where he always forgets to bring sunscreen. 😅
Still treasuring the time we spent in Cancun last month doing all of the above. It’s what life is for… to do what you love and do it in a way that hurts no one. This is what I feel is horribly missing in American (or at least Texan) society. The emphasis on freedom to do whatever you want regardless of how it might hurt others. It’s a toxic and dark mentality that I find myself less and less inclined to buy into. If we aren’t caring for ourselves AS WELL as others, I’m simply not interested. ✌🏽

It’s too bad we had zero fun in
With a list of things left to see on the next trip, we say bye for now and we’ll be back! Yucatán was good to us and now we ✈️ to Mexico City for much anticipated time with the cousins, grandmother’s birthday and lots of tíos y tias. ❤️
listos!?

My Story

It began with a box of oils I thought might help my family get through common issues and that little box of oils ended up transforming our lives in every aspect. Essential oils have become a powerful tool for my self care and personal development and spreading fundamental education about them has become my passion. I thrive on encouraging people to achieve their highest potential, both through the use of these products and through the Young Living income opportunity. I believe if we give the body what it needs, it will generally take care of itself. While not a huge fan of pharmaceuticals, I don’t count them out completely, nor do I think Western Medicine has all the answers to our wellness. I believe in balance, alignment and moderation in all things and above all else, compassion and love. Every day, I fall short in some way. Some days, the fails feel epic and on others, a tiny blip, but every day I have the unbelievable opportunity to wake up and do better, make healthy choices and love others the way I want to be loved. I believe you do too, no matter where you’ve been. What matters most is where you’re going. This page is meant to be a soft place for anyone to land who is ready to learn, enjoy and thrive in their lives. I’ll provide educational content on essential oils and other wellness related topics as well as encouragement and member support. Thank you for being here!
