Six Portland meals. A full belly. My take on the food we tried! 🍕 🍜
〰️
We heard Portland had a great Asian & Asian fusion food scene, & also couldn’t check out all the places we wanted to last year but couldn’t. SO we decided to go ALL IN on that this year 💁🏻‍♀️

But we also HAD to get some pizza too, ofcourse!😋
〰️
Here’s my thoughts so you can decide whether this spot is for you or not!

PS - This isn’t a “best of” list, just what I ate & how it really tasted for me.
〰️
Here’s the short version of what we checked out:
🍜X Noodles & Dumplings
🍗Short Round/Crying Tiger
🍕Turning Peel Pizza
🍛Gado Gado
🍗Hat Yai
🍛Eem
〰️
Swipe through & tell me which ones you’d check out, what your Portland favourites are/were!👇🏽

Have you also felt this?? P2/2
Brew w/ me on this!💭
〰️
As a creative in business, I’ve often felt like I’ve had to dial down my goofy, warm personality to seem more “profesh”.👀
〰️
I’m sharing some of my thoughts on having to suppress parts of yourself & feel creatively tied down; because I know if I’ve felt this and have experienced this, there’s a chance you, my creative friend, have too!💁🏻‍♀️
〰️
I talk about:
🎙️A concept called Bubbly Punishment
🎙️Suppressing unique parts of us as creatives
🎙️Ways that personal & biz life intersect as a creative (atleast for me)
🎙️Creative exploration & ‘what if we justs’

Check out P1 if you haven’t already✨
〰️
But yeah I’m really excited to hear your thoughts & experiences as a creative too!✨🤎

10/10 recommended date idea you’ll remember forevvur!🔥
〰️
If you’re looking for an adventurous date with yo man, GO do some DUNING!!!🏎️

Who knew the Oregon coast has sand dunes you can thoroughly enjoy on? You read right - not the Middle East, not Turkey, not even India or Nevada… the frickin PNW! 👀

We had a PHENOMENAL FRICKIN time going WILD!! 🤩🔥
〰️
Even though duning in Cappadoccia will always have my heart 🥹🤎, this was just as special✨

Especially, since I grew up in Dubai, dunes always hold a special place in my heart; so babe and I spent the day going nuts, sprinkling dirt around, having a picnic & it was just really an EPIC way to spend the day together!😈😊
〰️
There’s so many spots here on the coast we’ve wanted to hit up for a few years & this was one of them; so I HIGHLY RECOMMEND this as a fun date idea you’ll remember and cherish forever🥹 because I know I will.
〰️
Would you do this? Lmk👇🏽

Does Fall mean saying goodbye to iced lattes?🍂😢
〰️
Naaaaah!😜

Just because Fall is officially here, doesn’t mean iced latte szn is over! No no no, it just means that iced latte w/ sweaters szn is sooo on, girl!💁🏻‍♀️
〰️
Soooo, I’m still on my surprise birthday trip & I’ve been enjoying iced lattes in the multiples every👏🏽single👏🏽day👏🏽!🤩

There’s been quite some unique & hella delish ones on this end of the PNW at that😎👀
〰️
While my daily caffeine dose is all kinds of nourishing to the soul, I’ve also been enjoying extra nourishing boosts w/ @becksbroth protein chai latte.🫚

Smooth, spiced, 15g of New Zealand bone broth protein, extra boost of iced latte goodness helping w/ all those insane hikes, beach dances & frolicks😜😌

Issa yaay for me!💁🏻‍♀️

The brown gorl in me would love to add some more of her flavour tweaks in there too, but she likin the travel companion, aka her handy 3rd latte for the day🤪
〰️
So who’s throwing a sweater on & enjoying iced latte w/ a sweater szn with me??👀👀

PS- Use BHUMIKA15 for a nourishing boost & save 15% on your next latte!😊

Life if….😇
〰️
Life will show you all sorts of things.
How we choose to meet it, is on us, no?🤔

Easier said than done, though.

I used to think I was pretty good at not letting other people’s behaviours or things I experienced in life affect me much😇

And then somewhere, I realized I had let a few people & a few defining experiences change how I saw myself.👀
How
👉🏽I moved.
👉🏽I valued myself.
👉🏽Much I trusted my own intuition & capabilities.

I:
👉🏽Started shrinking myself so some people wouldn’t feel threatened by me.
👉🏽Stayed quiet when I was disrespected.
👉🏽Gave more and more of myself to people & clients, while forgetting that I needed to show up for myself, too.

I stopped feeling like I could be both:
✨Soft & powerful
✨Goofy & serious
✨Warm & have boundaries
✨Still figuring things out while still being completely capable

Eventually, my soul started asking me to come home to myself.
So little by little, I started listening👂🏼
👏🏼I started giving myself the same energy I’d so freely given everyone else.
👏🏼I started trusting my intuition heavily again.
👏🏼I stopped dimming myself around people who needed me to stay smaller to feel comfortable.
👏🏼I started removing myself from places, relationships & situations where I wasn’t appreciated, respected or valued.
👏🏼And most importantly, I stopped believing I had to be less ME.
〰️
I’m still figuring it out. I think we all are. But these days, I’m much more interested in being fully myself & letting the right people recognize the value in that (or not).💁🏻‍♀️

And maybe that’s the point. SO

👊🏽Fuck what they think.
👊🏽Be good. Be you. Do you.

Check out a special new cafe together, in DT Van!💁🏻‍♀️
〰️
I heard about a new cafe soft opening and got curious to know more. Turns out this cafe was being opened by 2 sisters Sara and Angel!👯‍♀️😇

Having a sibling myself, this amped me up SO MUCH & I decided to go check them out🥹

Sara and Angel challenged themselves to open up Unscripted Coffee in 30 days, documented their journey in real time & did everything on their own, no additional funding from anyone else! 🤯

The cheerleader in me was so proud and happy for them. What was even cooler was learning their story & getting to know them a bit in their soft launch day🤎

Sara and Angel were the definition of getting to their goal, without staying too stuck in perfection & analysis paralysis.👏🏼👏🏼

Good vibes, fun people, great space, with room to get better and better as they grow. We had fun that day & it was such a wonderful afternoon😊

Their coffee was good, and I’d be excited to try more options made with the local coffee brands they have on their shelves as well!😇
〰️
Whether you have siblings or not, I think you’ll enjoy getting to know them & appreciate their journey. Go check them out!

Lastly, Thank you Jo, for also capturing videos of me✨
