St-Barths Must-Not-Miss List
It was after midnight on a Sunday night (technically Monday morning) as ABBA’s “Gimme! Gimme! Gimme!” pumped through the airwaves as movie star-esque servers danced on boxes and tables while late-night diners dressed in white swayed to the motion, toes planted in the inches-deep sand that coated the floor of La Petite Plage restaurant on the waterfront of Gustavia, St-Barthélemy. We had traveled all day to arrive in St-Barths just before sunset. Following the check-in and the

2023 and the New Me
How many times have we professed the idea that we are going to take this New Year to truly become a new version of ourselves. Whether it be working out, being healthier, striving for that new job or feeding that passion that has been long forgotten. I believe we genuinely have good intentions on trying to become a better version of ourselves, but we lack the necessary tools to execute these changes. Often we look up and its July and those weights have layers of dust on them.


Emotional Intelligence in 2023
Have your emotions ever gotten the best of you? Chances are that the answer is yes. Emotions play a vital role in our lives, as they are a natural survival instinct that lets you know something might be wrong, but can impact your ability to communicate effectively, to build relationships, and to respond in a productive manner. Experiencing emotions are inevitable, we all have them as humans, but the key to allowing your emotions to help you is by first learning to control t
Spirituality: Self-Compassion
In a world where few have the confidence to be true, out of fear of what they stand to lose, I rise, in defiance of commonly accepted views, for the ascension of my soul and the enlightenment of the few. As my senses evolve through embodiment of life’s most sacred truths, the abundance of existence is realized in deliverance of my soul’s pursuit. Sensing the guidance embedded within life’s most subtle clues, my expression flows along a tone of ever deepening peace, rhythming


Dessert in a Glass
Not all desserts require a fork or a spoon. In fact, some of my favorite desserts require only a nice piece of crystal stemware and a desire to indulge in some liquid decadence. This month we delve into dessert wines and the varied ways that wine makers coax that delicious and complex sweetness out of the humble grape. Sweet wines get a bad rap. Often that is because inferior fruit is loaded up with refined sugar to create a cloyingly sweet concoction that is both inexpensive


Make a Plan for Giving in 2023
No doubt many of you spent some time over the final days of December deciding where to do some year-end giving. The needs are great, always, but with globally rising inflation, the increasing wealth chasm, the impact of climate change on costly and severe weather incidents, and the affordability of housing, it seems the needs are growing. Everywhere and with everything. Year-end giving is wonderfully good. In fact, non-profits rely heavily upon it which is why your physical


Gabriela Hearst takes on Global Hunger

From December 1-25, 100 percent of net proceeds across all ready to wear, handbags, and accessories from Gabriela Hearst Flagship stores and its website were donated to Save The Children’s Global Hunger Crisis Response. Gabriela Hearst is also making all her handbags, which are usually only available by wait list, available in a click-to-buy format on its e-comm


Vernissage : Kaloki Nyamai
The start of a new year seems to always evoke a need for retrospection; to take stock, reflect and evaluate the past 12 months and how it has shaped and impacted us. As it pertains to contemporary art, in the aftermath of the worse of Covid-19, 2022 offered not only a return to some sense of normality, e.g. the return of physical art shows and fairs, but also a palpable optimism and buoyancy, as a sweeping demand and appetite for emerging artists from previously overlooked ma

The Caesars Entertainment “Emperor Package” includes a five-night stay at the Nobu Sky Villa in Vegas and dinner with chef Nobu Matsuhisa. The traveling circus that is Formula 1 will hit no fewer than three US cities in 2023, descending on Las Vegas in November for what promises to be the most raucous stop of the season. Adding a boldfaced exclamation mark to the weekend’s proceedings is a just-unveiled package aimed at racegoers who crave a maximalist experience spread over


Scientists have Discovered the Causes of Aging
Scientists have just unearthed a vital clue about what really causes aging, discovering an imbalance that makes aging cells progressively less functional as time passes. The new study found that an imbalance of long and short genes developed in every cell in the body as it aged and that it could be one of the prime reasons for aging. The science The findings were revealed in a study conducted by researchers from Northwestern University, who studied animals like mice, rats, ki
