Big news to share: Iโ€™ve been named a finalist for San Diego Magazineโ€™s Celebrating Women 2026, Rising Star in Media & Marketing ๐Ÿฅ‚

Celebrating Women is San Diego Magazineโ€™s annual program honoring local women making an impact across business, media, wellness, and more, and being named a finalist in the Rising Star category is such an honor.

This one means a lot. Ten years of building this little corner of the internet, one Reel and one blog post at a time, and it still feels surreal to be recognized alongside so many incredible women doing amazing things in this city.

Voting is open now through July 26th and every vote genuinely helps. Link in bio if you have a minute to cast one for me, Iโ€™d be so grateful.

Thank you for being here for all of it ๐Ÿ’›

Skip Capri. Go to Ponza instead โ›ต๏ธ๐Ÿ‡ฎ๐Ÿ‡น

Everyone flocks to Capri, but this tiny island 3 hours from Rome is where Italians actually go to escape.

PONZA 2-NIGHT ITINERARY - save this for your next long weekend:
๐Ÿšข HOW TO GET THERE
Ferries run from Anzio (1h 15min, closest to Rome), Formia (1h 30min), or Naples (2h 45min).

Book ahead in July/August. Total travel time from Rome: โˆผ3 hours.

๐Ÿ›๏ธ WHERE TO STAY: Chiaia di Luna Hotel

๐Ÿ WHERE TO EAT
โ€ข Oresteria: Seafood + sunset terrace.
โ€ข Restaurant EEA: Modern take on island cuisine. Rooftop views.
โ€ข Le Terrazze: Sunset apertivo

๐ŸŒŠ WHAT TO DO
Non-negotiable: Boat day with Settemari. Theyโ€™ll take you to all the grottos + swimming spots you canโ€™t reach by land. (They have small boat + big boat options)

๐Ÿ’ก QUICK TIPS
โ€ข 2 nights is perfect. 1 is doable but a little rushed
โ€ข Make reservations! Everything fills up quick in the summer
