Happy Friday!
It’s 5:31PM and I’m driving around Dallas with my homies. I’m so so happy to be here especially after my travels. I thought I was being my best travel hacking self by spending the night in Miami before flying into Dallas. Flights directly from Maedellín to Dallas were approximately $500 and I said, “No, no. I can definitely pay less than that.”
Well instead, I’ve spent over $800 because the $1 flight that I secured for MIA to DAL got cancelled while I was at the gate this morning. My lesson? Just book the direct flight next time and save myself the trouble. Also: never fly Frontier or Spirit. It’s dead. It’s done.
It’s all good though because I’m with my friendsssss! It’s especially good because like the true grown ups we are, we just did some quick outlet shopping and then sat down at Chuck E. Cheese for beer and pizza. 😂 #foreveryoung
We’re about to run into not just any old Target, we’re going to SUPER Target so…
💻 Let’s dive in!
- “Fame used to be the byproduct of being really good at something whereas now fame is the end goal.” This is from this show on Hulu, Dark Side of the 90s. It dives into 90s pop culture and scandals. It has heavy throwback VH1 vibes.
- Watch this next if you enjoyed Tinder Swindler. It’s even wilder because homie is still on the run.
- “Get famous and he’ll find you.” Such a beautiful story.
- BRUH. You know how all the colonizing countries fill their museums with stolen art? Well China said fuck that and stole it all back. 😂 This shit is iconic. Here’s an article about the art heists, but def start with this podcast.
- This family is killing it with the balance. 😂
- Watch this TikTok about Netflix’s growth engineering, especially if you’re a biz owner. Here’s the full panel.
- Governments around the world are shook because more and more women are choosing not to have children. They’re shook because who’s gonna work if there are no humans?!
- Do you know the etymology of the word “bikini”?!?! Apparently, Spongebob’s Bikini Bottom is really a nuclear disaster site.
💁🏾♀️ What’s up with me?
- I’ve officially changed my title to Transformation Coach and it’s been a dream. I’ve always been hesitant to use the word coach (idk why it rubs me the wrong way), but it really is what I do. I help human transform their lives and businesses with ease and grace. I have 3 1:1 slots open for April. If you’re a self-starter in need of guidance and support, schedule a free call with me to see if I’m the coach for you.
- The Productivity Haus, my 6-week mission con mi amiga and part-time lover, Bami, is officially done! We’ve accomplished soooo much and although it started as a professional mission, the personal transformation has been the highlight. Bami has really helped me to focus on ease in all that I do. I’ve been able to productively cut my workload and create offers that allow me to help more people like The Selfish Reset (which is now open for registration 🥳 this month we’re resetting your money mindset).
- I was going to head to Maexico after Dallas, but now I’m torn because I’m tired already. Lowkey, I think I mae spend my April in Maexico so that I can be near my naturopath. I’m ready to wrap up this candida operation and consistent treatments would change the game. TBD.
🛍️ Buy of the Week
I bought A Woman’s Guide to Cannabis for a friend this week and was reminded how great it is. I’ve gifted it almost 10 times and whether you’re a seasoned stoner or new to cannabis, I can’t recommend it enough. I learned sooo much and it’s so well-written.
Pro-tip: don’t get the Kindle or audio version; def order the paperback. It’s so cute!
📝 Lesson of the Week
My lesson of the week life is to just go with the easier option. Always! I have backpacked my way across this world with all the layovers and those days are gone. I’m tired lol. It also relates to relationships; I only have time for easy relationships. I only have the energy for business projects that allow me to help others with ease. GIMME ALL THE EASE PLEASE! 🙏🏾
❗️ICYMI❗️
- The homie Candace and I launched a podcast, Maed with Intention! We’re two friends talking life lessons, business success and everything in between. We’re 3 episodes in and you can check us out on Spotify and Apple Podcasts.
- I dropped a new course so that you can launch your next newsletter in just 7 days! Get started today, your people wanna hear from you!
And that’s it for me! It’s 10:30AM on Saturday morning now and I think I’m still tipsy? Who knows what my day will be, but I get to spend it with my friends so I know it will be fire. I love them so much, forreal. In the words of mon ami Kenny, “my heart is so full”!
I hope that you have a weekend full of love! No matter what kind of love that mae be — you deserve it.
Stay loving,
Maegan
