    Explore Maui, Hawaii from Aston Maui Hill Resort in Kihei on a Budget

    May 26, 2025 /

    Story, photos and video by Cassie Hepler Getting to Maui, Hawaii for this vacation was like pulling teeth! Originally I had booked The Westin Maui Resort & Spa, Ka’anapali through my Marriott affiliate deals which was a steal… but it was over my birthday on September 7 and we all know what happened then – the tragic Lahaina fires. Immediately I canceled everything once it happened that August and had to fight with The Westin to get refunded, but eventually it happened. My heart broke for this beautiful island and its amazing community of people. So once the new year rolled around in January, my friend offered to book her…

    Corduroy Lodge Offers Cabins, Airstreams and Motel in Pinetop Lakeside, Arizona

    April 14, 2025 /

    Where to Stay in Pinetop-Lakeside Story, photos and video by Cassie Hepler I stumbled upon Corduroy Lodge years ago when I booked a random night in-between blogging adventures in Pinetop-Lakeside and honestly just loved the vibe! So I kept in touch and we kept hoping for snow but it didn’t seem like Northern Arizona wanted to this year so I just booked random dates. Well… I got what I wished for! But fortunately the tail end of the snow as my Honda Civic is not the best low-to-the-ground car for icy roads. I wish I could tell my younger self to buy something more rugged but I was thinking fast…

    March 24, 2025 /

    This review is over 3 years old so hopefully they have worked out the app kinks! What could be better than holidays with ski slopes, mugs of mulled wine, and people pretending they love frostbite? In this magical period, you want to feel like you are in a movie: a little romance, a little snow and a lot of garlands. Or maybe that idea makes you cringe because as if you wouldn’t be on a beach with your toes in the sand?! In light of this, advisors at Nebula, a spiritual guidance platform, have created the ultimate guide for each zodiac sign’s perfect getaway. After all, who knows better what…

    Harvest the Moon’s Energy to Live Your Best Spring Equinox Life

    March 17, 2025 /

    Tune in to the moon and how to live and garden in harmony with our nearest celestial neighbor, using The Old Farmer’s Almanac Lunar cycle to-do list. I’ve been a long time follower and fan of this brand and happy to be working with them on sharing these amazing ideas below! Harvesting Moon Energy People who live near the ocean know that a full Moon pulls tides higher. Landlocked Midwesterners cannot see this phenomenon, but the same thing is happening to water below the ground’s surface. This ebb and flow is a natural result of the magnetic pull of the monthly alignment of the Sun, Earth, and Moon and is…

    Meet Spiritual Healer and Guide Simona Manenti, The Real Deal

    April 4, 2018 /

    Story, photos by Cassie Hepler There was a time I was helping a spiritual, holistic living based website build its brand. While I was poking around in my happy place – the land of New Age and enlightenment – I would watch the videos that Angel Air would produce to learn more and out of genuine curiosity. And soon I stumbled upon healer Simona Manenti‘s video below, her energy spoke to my soul and I soon reached out for a private session. Her private sessions are very in depth. The reason there is a cover involved is because your body will get cold as she cleanses your spirit and speaks…
