a summer spent outside

Closing out summer with our hamud family trip! Made a quick trip to Ibiza because I got FOMO.

On this birthday, I can’t help but think of my amazing Mom. 

She was always the first person to wish me a happy birthday. Now that she’s gone, I still find myself feeling completely disoriented.

Recently, our brave and honest client Amanda Peet spoke on Anderson Cooper’s podcast about feeling like an orphan after losing her parents. That resonated.  While my faith remains strong, I’ve stopped trying to understand what’s next or why certain things happen.

What I do know is that I’ve been given the incredible gift of a new family who has carried me through this season.

My brother-in-law and mother-in-law flew to celebrate with me at Pacha in Ibiza. My wife surprised me with my favorite cheesecake at Hotel Costes in Paris. I got to be a kid again taking my son to Disneyland Paris. And ended the trip with the most special dinner in Geneva with the world’s best in laws and new family.

This year has taught me that two things can be true at the same time. You can be deeply heartbroken over one part of your life while also recognizing the incredible beauty in another.

My goal in the year ahead is the practice of being present and choosing to focus on what is good, and to never lose sight of the people who show up for me.  Much like my mother always showed up for people. 

Thank you to everyone who reached out today and has been there for me over these past few months. Your kindness has meant a lot to me.  And I'm sorry for any unanswered text messages. 

I hope I can always be there for you the way you’ve been there for me.
