POSTS STORIES REELS TAGGED

Sometimes the path we end up on starts with a decision we were sure we weren’t going to make.

Laura Saldivar Luna told me about her Teach For America story, and I loved how much uncertainty was packed into the beginning of it.

She met the recruiter at Georgetown and immediately thought: There is no way I’m applying for this.

Too selective.
Too intimidating.
And besides, everyone had already decided she was going to be a teacher.

Laura had other plans. She wanted to prove—to herself and to everyone else—that she could do all the things.

So she didn’t apply.

The deadlines passed.

And then an email arrived from Teach For America about a one-year fellowship at their New York City headquarters, where she could learn how the nonprofit actually worked.

A different door opened.

I think about how often we define our lives by the opportunities we think we’re supposed to pursue—or the ones we’ve already decided aren’t for us.

Sometimes the most interesting chapters begin somewhere you weren’t even looking.

We spend so much of our lives learning how to override ourselves.

Push through the exhaustion.
Ignore the discomfort.
Keep going.
Do what’s expected.
Be “resilient.”

In my conversation with Laura Saldivar Luna, she talked about what she’s learned in this second chapter of her leadership: how to reconnect with the wisdom of her body.

Because the body is communicating with us all the time.

A clear yes.
A clear no.
Something that feels aligned.
Something that doesn’t.

But we get really good at ignoring those signals. Sometimes because of the systems around us. Sometimes because of ambition. Sometimes because we’ve spent so many years believing that the answer is simply to keep going.

Laura described reconnecting with that wisdom as a compass for navigating uncertainty toward the path she actually wants.

I loved that.

And then, because this is RONderings and not a leadership conference, she reminded me that strawberries help, too.

Sometimes wisdom is slowing down enough to actually savor something.

#RONderings episode DROP!

In my late twenties, as a national office manager at Teach For America, I hit my outcomes. But what made me good at the job was something no rubric measured. People trusted me, so they showed up for me.

That relationship acumen was never celebrated the way results were. In most workplaces, it still is not.

Laura Saldivar Luna saw the cost of that gap from the top, as Teach For America's Chief People Officer. Her read: it is easy to get results at the expense of our humanity, and that is not what we want for our kids.

Now, through Piñata Possible, she helps leaders get great results without giving up the human part.

Trust is not a soft skill. It is how the work gets done.

We talk a lot about “networking.”

Laura Saldivar Luna reminded me that sometimes the most powerful form of networking is simply… having a conversation.

In our RONderings conversation, Laura said she believes a one-on-one conversation is one of the greatest tools of organizing—and one of the greatest tools for really knowing another person.

I couldn’t agree more.

Not every conversation needs an agenda. Not every relationship needs an immediate ask. Sometimes you get curious about another person, sit down together, and see what emerges.

A new connection.
A friendship.
An idea.
A partnership.
Something neither of you could have predicted.

I’ve built so many relationships in my life this way. Not through some elaborate networking strategy, but through a simple willingness to say: “Let’s talk. I’d like to get to know you.”

That feels especially important right now, when so much of our professional lives can become transactional.

Laura’s invitation is a good one: If something in this conversation sparks your curiosity, reach out. Have the conversation. See what emerges.

Her full RONderings episode drops Wednesday.

What if the success you spent years building… is no longer the success you want?

That question has been sitting with me since my conversation with Laura Saldivar Luna.

Laura talks about being in a season of “re-imagining and redefining what success can look like”—on her terms, in a way that honors everything that got her here.

I love that distinction.

Because redefining success doesn’t mean dismissing the version of yourself who got you to this point. It means being honest enough to ask: What is still serving me? What am I ready to reimagine? And what do I actually want now?

Those questions can be uncomfortable, especially when you’ve built a career and a life that, from the outside, looks successful.

But sometimes the breakdown is what creates the opening.

Laura describes this next chapter as uncertain, alive, fun—and “ripe for what’s next.”

That feels like a beautiful place to be.

Our conversation drops Wednesday on #RONderings.

Laura’s been sending me the kindest voice notes about how she’s still seeing the impact of our work together, and it keeps reminding me why I do what I do 🫶

Laura came to her Instagram Support Session wanting her Instagram to feel like an extension of the transformation she already provides her coaching clients every day… not a performance.

✨ We spent our hour together talking through her core messages, who she’s trying to reach, and what she wanted her presence online to say about her work – and how to translate all of that to the world of Instagram.

This is what I LOVE about social media coaching. My job isn’t to give my clients a new persona to use when they show up online. It’s to help draw out what’s already there, so they can show up as themselves and let their right people find them.

💛 Now Laura’s getting stopped by people in her everyday life telling her they see what she’s doing on Instagram, and that it’s landing.

📆 If you’re a woman in business who wants your Instagram presence to feel more like an extension of your work instead of a second job, send me a message and let’s get your own Instagram Support Session in the books.

I can’t wait to provide a little guidance to help you show up authentically, connect with the right people, and watch your business grow in the right direction 🌿

Sometimes I take life way too seriously.

And then I remember…

I’m the first woman in my bloodline to let JOY✨ become part of the inheritance.

Not anxiety from constantly rushing.
Not emotional exhaustion from over-functioning.
Not trauma dressed up as “that’s just how women in our family are.”

And definitely not my toxic traits…

Except always being right. 💁🏻‍♀️

I’m allowed to be silly.
I’m allowed to be creative.
I’m allowed to be playful, lighthearted, soft, loud, weird, radiant, and free.

And honestly?

I think more women should give themselves permission to be a little less composed and a lot more ALIVE⚡️

Be silly.
Be creative.
Be playful.
Be lighthearted.
Be fun.

Joy is not frivolous.
Joy is what I’m passing forward.

And if you’re ready to stop inheriting survival and start practicing self-trust, boundaries, nervous system safety, and inner authority…Sovereign Skills was created for that becoming.

Comment “SOVEREIGN” and I’ll send you the details for Sovereign Skills.

There is something incredibly powerful about being in a room full of women who are finally ready to be seen✨

Watching these brilliant founders step in front of the camera and actually have fun doing it was everything

It wasn’t just about the strategy or capturing content

It was the conversations, the collaborative energy, and that beautiful realization that visibility doesn’t have to be a solo journey

To the women who trusted me with their vision: you are phenomenal, and your next era is going to be so epic!

Thank you to @rcllctransportation who made the journey itself a wonderful experience, @hillcountryhomeatx for your beautiful space that was the perfect backdrop for our crawlers’ content, and @eatwellatx for the great service and delicious food

If you’ve been feeling isolated in your social media growth, just know that there is a space where you can show up exactly as you are and be completely celebrated

A little thank you letter to every woman who has trusted me with her wardrobe... 🫶🏼🥹

Thank you. From the bottom of my heart.

I don’t think I’ll ever fully be able to put into words what that trust means to me.

Our wardrobes are deeply personal. They’re tied to our confidence, our memories, our bodies, the seasons of life we’re walking through, and the way we want to show up in the world. I know firsthand how vulnerable it can feel to hand that over to someone else.

The fact that so many of you chose me to be part of that process will never be something I take lightly.

If you had told me a few years ago, when I was just starting this business, that one day I’d sell over 60 Style Bundles... I honestly don’t think I would’ve believed you. 🥹

What started as a little idea became something so much bigger than I ever imagined. It became friendships. Repeat clients. Referrals. Happy tears. Photos from events. Messages about feeling like yourself again.

And that’s because of you. 🫶🏼💕

Thank you for every order, every recommendation to a friend, every kind message, every photo you shared, and every ounce of trust you’ve given me over the last two years. You helped build this chapter of Style Revival Haus, and I’ll always be grateful for that.

✨ One final reminder: One-off Style Bundles officially retire tonight at midnight.

If you’ve been thinking about grabbing one, this is your last chance before they become part of the Style Revival Haus story.

And while I’m a little emotional saying goodbye... I can promise you this:

What’s coming next is the best thing I’ve built yet.

I can’t wait to show you. 🥳

with so much love & gratitude,
Bri 💕
