I’m documenting my 37th year of life one week at a time.
For the next 52 weeks, I intend to write one blog post each week documenting what it actually looks like to bet on myself and build a life that doesn’t depend on a 9-to-5.
I want to document the lessons I’m learning, the wins I’m celebrating, the losses I’m navigating, the money I make (or don’t make 😅), the ideas I try, the discipline I’m building, the mistakes I make, and all the emotions that come with trying to create a life on my own terms.
I don’t have a master plan. I don’t know exactly where I’ll be 52 weeks from now and that’s kind of the point.
I want to be able to look back at these entries a year from now and see the evolution in real time—from where I started to wherever this leap of faith takes me.
Week 1: "From Fun to Fund$" is officially live.
This first entry is about my decision to stop treating my creativity like a hobby and start treating myself like a brand. It’s about turning years of creating for fun into financial freedom.
Here’s to being brave enough to try, being willing to be seen trying, and documenting the whole damn thing along the way.
52 weeks. 52 entries. One goal: self-reliance.
Read Week 1 below 👇🏾 and don't be shy, leave a comment. I'd really appreciate it.
Where have I been? That's a great question. I've been living. I've been evolving.
2026 has been one of the most transformative years of my life. So much has changed, and I can't wait to share it with you.
This channel is entering a new chapter.
While I'll always have stories, lessons, and insights from my years living abroad, that season is no longer my everyday reality. Going forward, you'll see more of my current life. The pivots, the mindset shifts, the challenges, and the journey of becoming the woman I'm meant to be.
On August 22, I celebrated my 37th birthday, and for the first time in a long time, I'm genuinely excited about what's ahead. This is the year I become fully self-reliant. I'm betting on myself, trusting my intuition, building a life around my gifts, and documenting the entire journey.
Whether you've been here since the beginning or you're new here, Welcome. I'm so grateful to have you as a member of the Pixie Community.
On the very last day of 2025, I’m beyond grateful to have reached 10,000 subscribers. 🤎 Thank you to every single person who chose to support, watch, and grow with me. This truly feels like the most perfect way to close out the year. Here’s to creating even more together in 2026. Happy New Year! 🥳🙌🏾✨
I had someone comment yesterday asking me why I’m uploading YouTube shorts that are old (2-3 years ago). I realized that the information I was sharing about moving and living abroad is still relevant. During my time in Mexico I used TikTok the most to share my journey abroad. But I realized a few days ago I can also add those TikTok videos to YouTube shorts. So I’ve been doing so. I definitely didn’t meant to cause confusion which is why I’m making this community post for clarity.
I’m so grateful for this growing community. Welcome to all my new folks, and big love to my day ones! 🫶🏾
New videos are coming soon and I’m excited to keep creating content that inspires, informs, and keeps it real. Thank you so much for your continued support 🥰🤗
I’d love to hear your thoughts! Are there any specific video topics you’d like me to cover? Let me know in the comments below—I want to create content that resonates with you. Please note, I won’t be vlogging my personal life outside of my travel adventures. I'd greatly appreciate your feedback 🤎

Thank you for making this journey so special. Here’s to the next chapter! 🎉
New year, new upload! This video was one I didn’t expect to make, but here we are. After 3 ½ years, I’ve left Mexico, and let me tell you—it’s been a challenging transition.
Curious about why I made the move and how I’m adjusting? I’m sharing all the details in my latest upload. Check it out below!
💬 Let me know your thoughts—I’d love to hear from you!
Thank you for supporting my channel. As I enter a new chapter in my life, many changes are on the horizon. I'm feeling scared, nervous, and anxious about how things will unfold. However, I've been reflecting on what I want this next chapter to look and feel like, and I've decided to take social media more seriously. This will require a level of consistency and discipline that I've never committed to before.
Starting now, you can expect a video from me three times a week on Sundays, Tuesdays, and Thursdays. After next week, I will no longer be vlogging my life. Instead, I will be shifting my channel's focus to self-development, travel, and fashion. My goal is to reach 10,000 subscribers by the end of the year. I've planned my content for the next two months, and now it's time to execute.
I look forward to connecting with all of you and building a growing YouTube family.
Happy New Year! I am so grateful for each and every last one of you! Thank you for supporting my channel through my inconsistency. This year, I'm done making promises I can't keep. I will show you better than I can tell you. 2024 is about ACTION! I'm so excited for the many blessings I KNOW are coming my way. I am wishing ya'll a blessed and abundant year! LET'S GET IT!!!🥰
