I recently realized that I'm missing purpose, and I'm frustrated that I have to find one AGAIN. I've done this before... let's talk more about this in today's blog.`

Well, hello, my friends. Some of you have been wondering where I am, and I am letting you know that while I am ok, I am not feeling well. And now Jackie seems to be feeling off, as well. We are both doing the best we can to get back in shape, and until then, we won't be making any new videos.
So grateful for you all and I feel so taken care of by you.
Thank you and I hope to see you soon!
🤍, Lo

MEMBERS ONLY NOTE - June 2025
Still falling in love with Paris!
When it’s not too hot (and trust me, we’ve had our share of very hot days lately!), I try to walk everywhere. It keeps me grounded — and endlessly grateful. Even though this city is becoming home, it still has the power to take my breath away.
Just the other day, I stumbled upon this view — a quiet corner of a park I’ve walked through many times before, but somehow never noticed in quite this way. The sunlight on the water, the intricate stonework, the hush of it all… it caught me completely off guard. And it reminded me that even as life here becomes more routine, Paris still finds ways to surprise me.
These small moments of awe feel like little rewards for slowing down. I don’t always get them on the busiest days, but when I do — oh, how I treasure them.
Thank you for being part of this journey with me. Your support helps make this life possible, and I carry that gratitude with me as I wander these winding streets.
Sending you a breeze from the Seine,
🤍,
Lois

I’ve been so moved by the outpouring of support and kind words from many of you who’ve followed my move to Paris. People keep calling me brave—and while I appreciate that more than you know, I want to share something: I was scared too.
This week’s blog is all about what it really felt like to take this leap later in life. If you’ve ever felt stuck or thought “I’m too old for that,” I hope this post gives you a little nudge of encouragement.

WOW!! Thanks to YOU, my YouTube channel has just become monetized. I do not have enough words to say just how grateful I am that you're here. I started this journey a couple years ago, and while of course I believed in myself, I didn't know what to expect. Now, I can't imagine a life without you. So THANK YOU!
Xo, Lo

Spring is in the air and I am reminded of new beginnings. While France has yet to feel like my home, I can embrace that I am only at the start of the process.
