Things you never knew you wanted... A blue cheese and beet grilled cheese sandwich! And the fries? To die for, natch. 🧀 #oakville #roadtriplife #dinnertime🍴 #withmymentor #nancyosborne #igotthis #igotthisspace #conferencelife #companyofwomen #journey2success #journey2dinner #yum #friesbeforeguys #gourmetgrilledcheese #cantbeetit
Had a moment of connection with this sunbathing sea turtle... I wonder if she was trying to tell me to get the hell of of the sun? Nah... It was about our spiritual sisterhood! 🌴 #Hawaii #bigisland #hawaiibetweenbirthdays #travel #roadtrip #oceanviews #volcanicrock #pacificocean #water #waves #crashingwaves #seaturtle #sisterhood #sisterhoodispowerful #turtlesis #wildanimals #naturalHawaii #gratitudemoment
Such an awesome interview with my mentor @nancyosborne_igotthis and @phallon_dunn! I love seeing her speak and share her experiences and Phallon asked great questions. Stop one on our adventure! 🎤 #me #nancyosborne #igotthis #igotthisspace #womenwhogotthis #phallondunn #interview #podcast #roadtrip #torontolove #torontothegood #speaker #mentorandmillenial #adventure
Something different for me - penne primavera. I didn't eat much but the leftovers were even better! Mother's day dinner at the Family Place with @donnas.rockgarden. Cheesy! 💐 #happymothersday❤️ #pastapasta #penneprimavera #vegetariana #dinnerwithmama #foodstagram #cheesypasta #lovemymom
How often do you get to stand on solid ground about the clouds? I feel this represents the perfect balance between having your feet planted on earth and your head in the clouds. This photograph reminds me of all the times I felt I was too stolid, too logical, too locked into reality - and all the times I felt like I was floating away, let loose inside my own head with no clear boundaries containing me. It makes me think of the search for balance, for stilling the swinging pendulum. What beauty, grace, and love lies in the middle of everything. ⛰ #Hawaii #bigisland #hawaiibetweenbirthdays #travel #roadtrip #maunakea #maunakeamoments #maunakeasummit #headintheclouds #feetontheground #mindfulness #gratitudemoment #seekerofbalance #metaphormoment #whoarewereally #lookup
That's a deep red mountain behind me! Just over halfway up #maunakea - I took a #selfiemoment and almost got blown over the edge! Well, not actually, but it felt that way. Once we reached the top, I broke down into tears because I became overwhelmingly afraid of falling off the side. In a way that's a good sign - it means I don't want to die. ⛰ #me #maunakeamoments #summiting #hawaiibetweenbirthdays #hawaii #panicattack #lifewithanxiety #brightsideviews #survivor #awilltolive #cantkillme #intrusivethoughts #rude #mountainhome #sacredmountain #aloha

A sea turtle! Perfect happenstance. Tell me about a time you took a "wrong turn" and experienced something amazing! ✨ #Hawaii #bigisland #hawaiibetweenbirthdays #seaturtle #turtlefriend #animalsarelove #wrongturnrighttime #serendipity #happenstance #seacreatures #prehistoric #seenonmywalk #kona #hiddengem #turquoisewater #sunbathing #metoosis
We missed the turnoff for a scenic lookout, so we drove on to a place to turn around... ⛔ And pulled into an unmarked, very beat-up road. 🤔 Decided to drive down and see where it led. That curious attitude had never steered us wrong before. 🏝️ We came to a parking lot and though there were a few cars, we didn't see anyone. We walked through a Koa forest and out to see the most turquoise water, lava stone, and white crashing waves that we could ever have envisioned. 😲 We'd been to many beaches and many golden spots, but having this space to ourselves for a time was something I will keep in my heart always. ♥ We even saw a sea turtle sunning herself on the sand! 🐢 Whenever you have the chance, go down the unmarked, beat-up road. Do the unplanned things. Make time for side treks and mistakes that never become regrets. ⚛️ And if you can find a person to do that with, thank her every day. Thank you, @kaikanuck. You are my lots. ⚢ #Hawaii #bigisland #hawaiibetweenbirthdays #travel #roadtrip #oceanviews #volcanicrock #pacificocean #waterislife #lovethoughts #allthefeels #philosophizing #myheartisfull #instagramwife #bykai #me #feelinglikeamermaid #lostonland #yardsaledress #bigheartvibes #notgoingback #youcantmakeme
This is spam masubi! Pretty popular here in Hawaii. I bought this from the grocery store, but the one we bought from @lowscorner was wayyyy better! I didn't think I'd like it but if something is salty enough, I'm in! 🌴 #Hawaii #bigisland #hawaiibetweenbirthdays #travel #roadtrip #spam #spammasubi #masubi #roadfood #localfare #thingsiate #whatiateinhawaii #surpriseyum #poolsidesnack #hawaiianfood #differentisgood #
Waipio Valley... You can absolutely get the sense that this is a sacred place. So serene and calming to watch the lines of waves form and crash. 🌴 #Hawaii #bigisland #hawaiibetweenbirthdays #travel #roadtrip #oceanviews #volcanicrock #pacificocean #water #waves #crashingwaves #waipiovalley #waipio #dreamscometrue #beauty #nature #serenity #sacred #stunning #viewfromabove
