TRAVEL: THE ENGLISH COASTLINE THAT YOU NEED TO SEE
South Devon is a seaside county in the UK and only 4 hours by car from London. The area is known for organic farms and sustainability practices. There are charming places to stay such as the Lepoldina House which is situated on a hillside and minutes from the water. You’ll also find plenty of places to eat at offering fresh pastries, organic ingredients, and 4-course menus.

WEALTH: THE WHAT, HOW, AND WHY ABOUT ETHICAL INVESTING
If you’re into the idea of aligning your investments with your personal values and priorities around social responsibility and other ethical concerns, then ethnical investing is a must for you to dabble in. It involves researching companies' business practices, leadership, and impact to identify ones that operate similar to your principles. At one time, ethical investing was seen as riskier (and to have lower returns), but recently some ethical investments have outperformed traditional ones.

BUSINESS: HAILEY BIEBER’S RHODE OFFICE GIVING CLEAN GIRL VIBES
When Hailey started to design her office with the help from her interior designer, she wanted it to feel like “a calming, relaxed, vibey place”. Most of the office is a heather gray, similar to the Rhode products. Because she wanted the office to look and feel calming, the overall vibe feels much like a spa.

The Idea of You follows Solène (Anne Hathaway), a 40-year-old single mom who begins an unexpected romance with 24-year-old Hayes Campbell (Nicholas Galitzine), the lead singer of August Moon, the hottest boy band on the planet. You can watch this on Amazon Prime.

ON LONGEVITY: “To sustain longevity, you have to evolve.” — ARIES SPEARS

Evolving, does not necessarily mean abandoning your core values or principles. It is about recognizing the need for change and finding ways to adapt while staying true to one's authentic self or brand. It involves being open-minded, embracing new perspectives, and being willing to step out of your comfort zone. For longevity, whether in a career, business, or personal growth, complacency is an enemy. By embracing the mindset of continuous evolution, individuals and organizations can be successful in the face of constant change.

Ballet flats—tabis, flats with bows and accessories, and mesh slippers, to name a few “spinoffs”—have been all the rage in 2024. They’re not going anywhere anytime soon, and are projected to be the shoe of the summer. Let's talk about why you should invest in ballet flats with ankle straps: they’re the perfect combination of sultry, quirky, and trendy to incorporate into your wardrobe. Plus, you’ll be far ahead of the trend curve.
