Time is running out to join us for this month’s Women Rising Roundtable!

This Saturday, we’re diving into:

✨ The Audacity to Desire: Expanding What You Allow Yourself to Want ✨

Translation?
We’re unpacking:

why so many women stop dreaming for themselves

why wanting more can feel selfish or unrealistic

and how to reconnect with the part of you that still wants something more for your life

These roundtables are some of my favorite things I offer because they’re not just conversations… they’re experiences.

Women come in thinking:
“Maybe it’s just me.”

And leave realizing:
“Oh wow… I’m not alone.”

Through guided reflection, journaling, honest conversation, and practical tools, women gain clarity about what’s been keeping them stuck and begin reconnecting with the life they actually want.

And honestly? The breakthroughs are powerful.

So if you’ve been feeling restless, disconnected, stuck in “responsible mode,” or quietly craving more from life…

This is your invitation.

🖊️ Bring a journal.
☕ Bring yourself.
💫 Bring the desires you’ve been afraid to admit.

Registration closes soon.

Why is it SO hard to move through administrative processes in France? 😩🇫🇷

Honestly, I had forgotten just how frustrating it can be because for the last 4 years, I didn’t have to deal with renewing my resident card.

But now? I’m back in it.

Websites that loop you in circles. Confusing instructions. Logins that don’t work. The kind of experience that makes you wonder if you’re losing your mind. 😂

So on this week’s walk through Céret, I rant a little… but I also share some other updates from the last few weeks, including what I’m currently preparing for next here in France and a few moments that reminded me why I still love this life so much.

Because somehow, in France, frustration and beauty always seem to exist side by side.

New video is up now. Link in bio. 🍒🚶‍♀️

Did you catch our livestream last Thursday? 🇫🇷

Michelle brings such a fresh, fun approach to learning French. She literally puts words to music and creates her own beats to help things stick.

It’s creative, memorable, and honestly just makes learning more enjoyable.

If you’ve ever struggled to stay consistent or make French “click,” you’ll definitely want to watch this.

This float seen at Carnaval in Céret last Sunday looks like Chester Cheetah. 🐆🧀 But is it? And if so, why?

After doing some research, I think it is!

Turns out that Cheetos only arrived in France on April 1, 2025. The version sold in the U.S. doesn’t meet EU food regulations, so they had to change the formula before launching them here.

I know I’m late to the party and my French friends probably think I’m behind the times (I admit it, I am 😅). Now I’m way too curious about the taste of French Cheetos so a taste test is definitely happening soon.

Made a quick Easter Sunday stop in Salses-le-Château… and wow.

This fortress of Salses built in the 15th Century was much bigger than I expected.

One of the perks of living where I live is the sense of community I feel here.

Last night my neighbor knocked on my door with a plate of chicken tenders. He was still in his uniform (he’s a chef at a Michelin-star restaurant in town), so at first I thought they were leftovers from the restaurant. But they were fresh and piping hot, he had just cooked them in his apartment. Maybe he was trying a new recipe.🤔

Whatever the case, I accepted them happily and thoroughly enjoyed them.

It’s unexpected gestures like this that make me feel like I truly belong here.

One more day! 🇫🇷

 

Tomorrow I’ll be going live with Fabien ( ) to talk all about French insurance for expats — health insurance, visa requirements, home, auto, and the mistakes people don’t realize they’re making until it’s too late.

If you’re living in France or planning your move, this is your chance to get your questions answered by an expert who works with expats every day.

 

Bring your questions and join us live! I’m really looking forward to this conversation and to seeing you there!

 

Set your reminder and don’t miss it! Link in my bio. https://youtube.com/live/CHGzAp_DPFo?feature=share

Dogsitting with this cutie is always fun. We play fetch in the amazing woods of Laroque-des-Alberes and I get in some good workouts. And yes, that's me huffing in the background as I climb the incline. 😅
