Our manifesto

We believe

We enjoy life to the fullest in the moment, but know it can take a lot of careful planning to create a life you enjoy every moment.

We live for luxury, but know sometimes you just need to sell your purse on eBay to make the next big thing happen.

We know living better starts by focusing in wellness and health, but know it’s not as easy as reading motivational posters.

We love to adventure around the world, but sometimes nothing beats being home.

We think everyone should take risks, but know sometimes it means you wear a shirt in a bold color to work, not ziplining over rain forest.

We believe in silver linings and happy endings, and are ready to do more than just write to-do lists in pretty notebooks to take charge in finding our happiness
