Happy 2024, let love rule
I am also taking a moment to realize what a ride 2023 has been for all of us. At its best, life is unpredictable. We're here to learn, to grow, to share.
We are given chances and challenges. This past year, I embraced them all. When I saw love, in whatever shape or form, I named it and cherished it. When there was chaos in the world, I did not look away. And I learned with gratitude in my heart: it's never too late to dream a new dream, to dance to a new tune, to see with soft new eyes.
Happy new year. Let's enter this one with a renewed resolve to let love rule. The world could use some right now. We all could! Are you with me? Let's do this!

More than a feeling
Don’t ignore your emotions; they are much more powerful than you can imagine. By linking the magical world of emotions with hard science, Dutch scientist Pierre Capel, professor emeritus in experimental immunology, shows us the consequences of our feelings and the power of our minds. The message: we can do much more than we think. “Meditate. It’s the single best thing you can do for your health.”

Keto curious?
The fact that I feel bikini-confident all year round is, of course, a nice bonus. But for me, the biggest payoff of following the keto diet is the way it optimizes my health and gives me tons of energy.

Super (skin) food
‘If you can’t eat it, why put it on your skin?’. I pretty much live by this beauty adage. After all, with your skin being one of your body’s largest organs, anything – and I mean anything! – you put onto your skin will end up in your bloodstream.
