TRAVEL: THE RISE OF THE DO-NOTHING VACATION
Although the word vacation normally means adventuring in a new place and having a change of routine, trends are shifting towards low-key getaways. People want true breaks that involve minimal planning and doing. There’s even been a noticeably higher rate of bookings with all-inclusive resorts because people want the stress-free experience!

BUSINESS: CLAUDE 3, THE COMPETITOR FOR CHATGPT
If you love ChatGPT, you’re going to want to check out Claude 3 by Anthropic. Anthropic (now a unicorn aka valued at over $1B) is founded by 2 siblings and they believe they’re better than ChatGPT. Definitely try this tool if you do any sort of brainstorming, coding, or strategy.

LIFESTYLE: A CAFE, CINEMA, FLOWER SHOP…MISS DIOR
“Miss Dior Avenue” is a pop-up experience on Melrose Avenue in LA. It’s reminiscent of a 1960s city street and you can expect to see a parfumerie, cinema, & flower shop all there, in the iconic pink of Miss Dior! The pop up is open from today through Sunday, by reservation.

(IN CASE YOU MISSED IT)

ON ENCOURAGEMENT: Instruction does much, but encouragement everything — Johann Wolfgang von Goethe

Truly advocating for someone can do so much more than only giving instructions and expecting positive results.

🏠 Spring is almost here which means it’s time to add this to my home

💍 A look inside multi-million dollar Ambani pre-wedding events — yes, Rihanna performed. The actual wedding is set to be in July.

🛋️ Wall moldings are truly the way to make any space feel luxurious

Cumin Tofu Stir Fry

This is a vegan adaptation from “To Asia, With Love” by Hetty McKinnon. A spinoff of a signature lamb dish at Xi’an Famous Foods in New York.

They say you can never go home again, and for Persephone Fraser, ever since she made the biggest mistake of her life a decade ago, that has felt too true. This book will feel like a movie playing in your head.

WATCH - Scrambled

In Scrambled, the eternal bridesmaid Nellie is always finding herself booked up with events but when she starts to feel the clock ticking…she decides to freeze her eggs. You get to see the empowering journey where she ultimately discovers she may be “the one” that she’s been looking for this whole time. Although fertility in women, the cost of procedures, and the biological clock worries are represented in a comical eye, you truly feel the sensitive points are touched on gently.

LISTEN - Crisologo

Our favorite playlist for a productive workday with some of the coolest beats. Many of the songs are electronic/house music featuring artists from around the globe.
