Happy birthday, sister! 🥳 Without you, I probab

Happy birthday, sister! 🥳 Without you, I probably would’ve been a spoiled little brat with my own room growing up and never having to share clothes with anyone😂

But then I would’ve missed out on having a best friend and a cheerleader and someone who can’t get enough of all the grand (sometimes-not-so-grand) ideas I come up with. So yes, I would share my room and clothes and everything else growing up all over again in an instant.

Thank you for being who you are and thanks to our parents for bringing a little sister to me 26 years ago 👯‍♀️

“Karina, meet Karina 👋🏼 She is happiness.

“Karina, meet Karina 👋🏼
She is happiness.
She is an inspiration.
She is love.
Karina is full of life, abundance and big-thinking.
Her unshakable drive is contagious and is already making a difference.
Nothing can stop her, she radiates beauty in every way.
She can manifest a better world through compassion for others, her enthusiasm for life and being kind.”

There may be so much negativity in the world right now but it doesn’t have to live in you. You can change the narrative in your own life and those around you by just thinking that you can.

So that’s what I’m doing. I wrote myself a “pep talk” that I can repeat to myself over and over until I believe every word wholeheartedly. Write your own pep talk. Sell yourself to yourself every day, be your own commercial. Once you choose to show up for yourself, the universe will too 🌌

Thanks to Dr. David J. Schwartz for his wonderful insights in his book The Magic of Thinking Big that inspired me to sell myself to myself 📖

I’d love to see what you come up with! You can either comment it below for the world to see or send me a DM! 🤍🤍🤍

Happy Father’s Day to my dad and all the dads ou

Happy Father’s Day to my dad and all the dads out there 💗 Feliz Día Del Padre!

I’m fortunate enough to have grown up with both parents and my dad has made hundreds of sacrifices to provide for his kids every single day.

Swipe to see his attempt to knock out the legend “Brown Bomber”🥊 (Maybe after this virus, I’ll treat him to a boxing match out here in Vegas, one more thing to mark off his bucket list!✔️)

Although I’m grateful for the free education I h

Although I’m grateful for the free education I had growing up, it failed to teach me some of the most vital information... most of us are just now learning so much about this country and this all-around broken system we grew up in. The place we thought to be of highest standards and where we once believed freedom was meant for every American. But it’s not entirely free yet.

However... Just this week, the Supreme Court ruled a landmark civil rights law that protects gay and transgender workers from workplace discrimination.

Then they blocked the president’s attempt to end the DACA program for our dreamers.

We have a long way to go but we should pause and celebrate how far we’ve come. Celebrate how much we’ve grown as people in just the past 5 months. We’re resilient and I know we can make the necessary positive changes to make American actually great for the first time.

Breonna Taylor deserves justice. If you haven’t

Breonna Taylor deserves justice. If you haven’t already, please sign the petition in my bio to bring her justice. It takes less than a minute of your time but it can make a world of difference.

If you’ve already signed it, share this. Share her photos, keep talking about her. Do what you can and keep tagging #JusticeForBreonnaTaylor. It’s up to us to make the change.

Her 3 killers are still walking free, we’re not letting this stuff get swept under the rug anymore. You know what they say: no justice, no peace. Keep saying her name! 💗

Saw this beautiful mural painted & posted by @detour303 with @hieroveiga & @justcreatedit located in Denver, Colorado. Check out their pages for more info.

#JusticeForBreonnaTaylor #BlackLivesMatter

Please consider donating to George Floyd’s Memor

Please consider donating to George Floyd’s Memorial Fund, I’ve linked it in my bio.

If money’s tight (especially due to corona) you can sign the following petitions, all you need is an email to make a change:

Look up Color of Change and read up on what’s happening in the black community. While you’re there, sign the Justice For Floyd petition demanding all 4 officers be charged with murder.

Visit StandWithBre.com and sign the petition for Breonna Taylor, who was brutally killed in her own home by the Louisville police. Arrests have not been made yet.

Please visit blacklivesmatters.carrd.co for more for info and links to resources.

And just as important, get out there and vote. Our voices matter and they will be heard. Keep talking about this, not just today because this isn’t just a trend.

#GeorgeFloyd #BreonnaTaylor #nojusticenopeace #blackouttuesday✊🏾

Got some much needed vitamin d today ☀️ (my shades probably thought I vanished)

I’m not gonna lie, I was a tad anxious about leaving my comfy & safe apartment but I did it. Felt pretty good to blast Taylor in the car with the windows down 💭

I’m one of the 3 fortunate souls who gets to call this beautiful lady mom. Happy Mother’s Day to all the moms (biological or otherwise) in the world who do anything and everything for their babies. 🌸💕

One of the greatest legends of our generation once

One of the greatest legends of our generation once said: “A Jedi must have the deepest commitment, the most serious mind.” -Yoda

Most of our lives we’ve sort of been conditioned to plan for the future, prepare for tomorrow, think ahead.

It’s tempting to wonder if we’ve already been the happiest we’re ever going to be. Or to dream of someday in the distance being happy once again.

But while we’re stuck in the future, which we can only ASSUME we’ll have, we are potentially missing out on what we DO have.

Today, take some time to be mindful of your present, this very moment in your lifetime. Do one thing that makes you smile, take a couple of deep breaths, look up at the sky. Look, I don’t make the rules, Yoda does.

Be kind to yourself & May the 4th be with you 💚

So... which Star Wars movie are you starting with?! #masteryoda #mondaymotivation #starwarsday #mindfulness
