Let the renovations begin!! Been MIA because I recently closed on my dream home @bohiosantiago in the Dominican Republic! Some context: I’m kind of an optimistic person, but 2020 was TERRIBLE. I decided after quarantining alone for most of the year that I really needed to be with my family because I was going through it and so flew to DR in the safest way possible. While I was there, shit went down in my personal life and I was in a really bad place. Weeks went by with zero sleep. Friends and prayer helped to lift me a bit. On one particular day, I felt it necessary to talk to my ancestors and so I went to the cemetery and asked for strength and perseverance. I felt way better afterwards, and later that day, I asked my parents if they’d be down to hop around the city to look at properties. No real intention to buy tbh, just a distraction. The next day we were scheduled to see 7 different places.

This was one of the first properties I saw and as soon as I stepped in, I was like THIS IS MINE. My parents were like wtf LOL I was not financially or mentally prepared to invest in a property. The energy in this space was so special though, and it spoke to everything I would want in a home. I told the agent to call up the owner who lives in NY. We spoke, it got super emotional, and I made an offer on the spot. She said she would think about it, and the agent encouraged me to look at other listings because she knew the owner wasn’t budging. She took us to 8 other listings that day. Every place I saw reinforced why this initial place was perfect for me. My parents agreed and I told the agent we needed to figure out how to convince the owner hahaha we agreed to meet later that afternoon, and a few hours later she told me the owner accepted my offer and I signed an agreement to buy😭 This literally all happened within 10 hours and I truly felt like angels were walking me through it.

Once I signed, I was like wait how am I gonna pay for this LOL that week, some money unexpectedly came in, and some other puzzle pieces lined up, and it all kinda worked out (don’t recommend this LOL) More 👇🏽

Listed in order of how much patience you have LOL these past few days have been packed with virtual & real life family gatherings, and I've noticed the weight/body talk stuff is intensified by 1000 with concerns about covid weight gain 🙄

I put together an article on @selfmagazine to help you navigate these next few days, and have tons of resources on there that are helpful year round. I added my go-to resources to share with people who are open to learning about a more inclusive approach to health, provide phrases to help you mentally prep, and more!
