What is your definition of wellness?
Routinely doing your best to care for yourself.
What’s the most important part of your wellness routine?
Moving my body tied with pulling a daily tarot card.
What is a unique wellness or beauty product/procedure you’ve tried?
The Killer by Love Wellness. Look it up. Thank me later.
What is your favorite exercise or routine?
Surfing & yoga.
What is your advice for maintaining work/life balance?
Balance is subjective IMO! Some people work 70 hours a week and feel great. Some people don’t work a minute after 40 hours. Here’s what works for me — I work a shit ton. But I also rest and play a shit ton. I like to have one solid day off to not work at all. I also like having the freedom to work at midnight or work at 6am or go get a smoothie at 2pm. I realize that’s a privilege. Essentially my advice is trial and error, daily check ins to see how you’re doing, and then finding out what balance means to YOU.
How do you manage stress or anxiety?
I cry. Jk. But for real. I make sure to remind myself that it WILL pass. I try to cry, sweat, or stretch it out if possible. Stress/anxious energy stays stuck in our bodies so we gotta feel it and let it out.

How do you incorporate CBD into your daily routine?
I take a dose of 700MG Dazey tincture under my tongue 2/day. It’s a GAME CHANGER for my focus and reducing rain fog. I also notice that I’m much less prone to stress when I’m routine w/ my CBD intake.
What are your favorite beauty or skincare products?
I like to keep it minimalistic. I love clean beauty products that feel luxurious but simple. I’m a sucker for a sexy, earthy scent and something that makes my skin feel soft and look glowy. Below are my recurring restocks:
1. Kálos Triple Threat Masque
2. NÉCESSAIRE Body Exfoliator
3. Dazey Green Tansy Face Oil
4. The Whimsy Official Lip Gleam
5. APTO Skincare Turmeric Mask
6. Glossier Boy Brow
7. Biossance Squalane + Zinc Sheer Mineral Sunscreen
8. Dedcool fragrance #4

What’s the first thing you do when you wake up each day?
Probably think about what tattoo I’m going to get next.
What is always on your nightstand?
Weed, Moody soft lighting, body lotion, sparkling water, my glasses (why? bc we like to CHILL in bed).
