Fifteen years ago I lost my big brother. This is his surf spot.

Sound on 🤍

Every year around his angelversary we come back here and I sit on this sand and look for him in the water. I know how it sounds. I do it anyway.

If you've lost someone, you have a place too. A road, a mountain, a stretch of water.

Tell me about them. Say their name here if you want to.

You’ve been asking, and they’re almost here.

Our new custom lockets can be personalized with a cherished photo, handwriting, fingerprint, or drawing to create a keepsake that’s uniquely yours, however you choose to tell your story.

Coming soon….✨

Elle (undeniable the best masseuse in ATX) asked me what music I wanted during my massage last week.

I didn't even blink. "Hit me with some old school sh*t. Jewel. Fiona Apple. Sheryl Crow. No Doubt. And if you really love me, throw some Fugees in there and let Lauryn Hill's intoxicating voice do the rest."

And just like that, I was 17 again.

Junior year. Rancho Bernardo HS. Not a worry in the world except which cute boy was going to ask me to Homecoming. I had a pink see-through pager and a white Toyota Celica with the most perfect dark blue interior. Me and my bff's were out cruising for boys, hanging at the mall, painting our nails with Vamp, wearing cute clothes from Hot Topic and Wet Seal. And somehow, after all this time, the taste of my lipstick in Twig still takes me straight back to all of it.

And the COMMUNICATION. We didn't have texting. We had pager code. A whole secret language that lived between me and my people, sent through rudimentary button presses because spending a quarter on a PacBell pay phone was simply not in the budget.

I miss her. That girl with zero worries and a life full of adventure ahead of her.

I posted a pics of my pink pager. If you can read what I typed in pager code, drop your answer in the comments. Bonus points if you reply to me in pager code back. 📟

POV: You found the people behind Love Talla💕

We spend our days creating keepsakes that celebrate the people you love most, but we make sure to have a little fun along the way too.

Work hard. Play hard. That’s the Love Talla way.

We lost our goldfish Goldie this weekend. 🐠 3 beautiful years together.

I know, she was “just a fish.” But my kid cried. I cried, and the whole house felt a little off.

And it reminded me of something bigger.

When someone we love loses someone they love, we panic. We want to show up. We want to hand them something that says: I see you. I’m so sorry. I love you.

So I put together 10 sympathy gifts that actually help:

🖤 A custom fingerprint keepsake: their loved one’s touch, kept close 🤍
🖤 A grief journal, given with a note on how to use it.
🖤A memory box: a home for the cards, notes, and small things that mean everything
🖤Preserved funeral flowers: the flowers that were at their service, preserved into something really beautiful Rae Chic Modern Floral Preservation
🖤A month of dinners: they may not have an appetite, but if they have a family, you are giving them something enormous by taking away the daily question of how everyone gets fed
🖤A thoughtful donation in their loved one’s name: a tree planted, with the coordinates to go find it one day 🌳 A Living Tribute
🖤Signs by Laura Lynne Jackson: the book that put my own broken heart back together Laura Lynne Jackson
🖤A photo book of photos they’ve never seen: new memories of someone they can’t make new memories with
🖤A gratitude journal: gently reminding them of what is still there and still good, alongside their grief
🖤The gift of a day, and their name: show up on the hard dates and say their person’s name out loud. It costs nothing and it’s already in your calendar 📆

Save this post. You’ll unfortunately need it one day. 🙏🏼

Today I delivered a cat paw necklace to my friend Samantha.

She lost her soul cat, Bandit.

The moment she saw that sweet little paw print keepsake the tears just came. And I stood there holding the weight of what I was watching, quietly reminded of why I do this.

It’s easy to get caught up and forget. But these animal souls give us something so rare. Completely unconditional love. No conditions. No complicated feelings. Just love.

What you see in this photo is Alaska. Another soul animal who is deeply missed by her mom and dad.

Her dad sent us a photo of her sweet face, and we used it to create a hand-drawn line portrait engraved on the back of her mom’s bracelet. Alaska’s nose print rests on the front.

She’s not gone. She’s just closer now.

End of school year party. I'm standing there sweaty from running from the overflow parking lot to make it on time, swatting away mosquitoes that threaten to eat me alive, trying to remember to swing by the nurse's office to pick up Lexi's EpiPen (spoiler alert: I forgot).

And then I spot it.

My friend walks up wearing her Grit & Grace necklace. That gorgeous lion perched on a natural pearl. Within minutes another mom comes over to me, points at her neck, and says "I need that. Where do I get it?"

The story behind this necklace IS mom life.

A lion for the inner courage it takes to navigate the day to day. The stomach bugs that took out the whole family. Treating chigger bites in unspeakable places. Packing the lunch, signing the form, refilling the prescription, showing up to the thing.

The school year that somehow took forever and went by in a blink at the same time.

The pearl for what happens when you keep showing up anyway. Pressure. Layers. Beauty that only forms because of the hard stuff, not in spite of it.

Here's the thing I have to tell you though. The pictures do not do this necklace justice. I've tried. My camera roll is full of evidence that this piece refuses to be photographed properly.

In person it stops people. On a screen it whispers.

The other thing I love. Because the pearl is a natural pearl, no two necklaces are ever the same. Yours will not look exactly like hers. Or mine. Just like our stories. 🦁🤍

Today, as I picked up my baby girl from her last day of 1st grade, I just wanted to take a moment to publicly thank my high school calculus teacher for not believing in me. 🤣

Back up. Senior year of high school. I was failing calculus. Close enough to failing that graduating was actually on the line.

☑️Maybe I was checked out because I was a Sr.
☑️Maybe I had an undiagnosed learning disability
(Aren't we all realizing this now?!?)
☑️Maybe my prefrontal cortex was running a little behind schedule.

Either way, I was drowning.

So I did the thing you are supposed to do. I went to my teacher for help.

She looked at me and told me, with full honesty, that:
😧I was not going to amount to anything.
😧That I was a loser.
😧That I should not have high expectations for my future.

If I was being honest with myself, she was kind of right in her assessment. I wasn't the star student. I wasn't ambitious. I wasn't driven. I would have looked at me and thought the same thing.

But without her even knowing it, in that moment she created a villain. 🦹🏻Or maybe a better way to say it is, she lit a fire🔥 inside of me that has not gone out since.

I have a lot of childhood friends who cheer me on this platform, and as the kids say: IYKYK exactly who I am talking about.

So today, as we all appreciate our kids' teachers for their hard work throughout the year, I want to thank my HS calculus teacher from the bottom of my heart. I am totally being sincere. If she had not said those words to that struggling senior who came begging for help, I don't think I would be standing here today as such a stellar success of a human being.

Building an empire that heals hearts and brings joy to people, raising a spectacular little girl, and married to a trophy of a husband.

The future is so bright, I gotta wear shades. 🕶️

Has any other mom had this kind of moment where the words of a trusted adult catapulted you into outer space? Tell me! I have a feeling I am not the only one.
