In the Words of Doja Cat…

June 30, 2021June 16, 2021 ~ Gila Daman ~ 2 Comments

I have Doja Cat to thank for my becoming more confident in my self-expression. When I watched her interview with MTV a couple months back she said she is doing what she loves and she is so happy others enjoy it—cuz she gonna keep on producing her style. The thing is, the video she made … Continue reading In the Words of Doja Cat…

Yo Quiero Taco Bell

June 29, 2021June 16, 2021 ~ Gila Daman ~ Leave a comment

In 7th grade we had a school sleepover and I wore a t-shirt to sleep that said "Yo quiero Taco Bell" and had a picture of the chihuahua from the commercial. My whole childhood I was self-conscious about wearing shirts with words on them. I didn't want to make a statement, make waves, offend someone, … Continue reading Yo Quiero Taco Bell

Empowered Life

June 28, 2021June 16, 2021 ~ Gila Daman ~ Leave a comment

When my father suddenly passed away. I took two weeks off my college. The second week was to sit shiva, the tradition of morning in the Jewish tradition. When I got back to college, not only did I keep up with my work, but I excelled just as well, if not more. Maybe G-d is … Continue reading Empowered Life

What If It’s OK?

June 27, 2021June 16, 2021 ~ Gila Daman ~ Leave a comment

Do you have something you do that you wish you did differently? You're like, "C'mon Gila, of course. What kind of question is that?" Ok, well, out of the myriad of things that popped into your mind, pick one! Here's my example: I wish I had more clout and confidence with my private clients. I … Continue reading What If It’s OK?

Reorganizing My Soul

June 26, 2021June 16, 2021 ~ Gila Daman ~ Leave a comment

This morning, I had an epiphany: I could replace my smaller brown bookcase with a larger black one to match my other medium black one. Yup, that was it. Can you tell I'm moving? These are the thoughts going through my mind! But truly, I woke up this morning, realizing that if I store the … Continue reading Reorganizing My Soul

Under Construction

June 25, 2021June 18, 2021 ~ Gila Daman ~ Leave a comment

I remember seeing construction sites when I was going through a hard time after breaking up with my boyfriend in 2007. It was a relationship I started on the heels of my father's sudden passing, so as you can imagine, I wasn't in the healthiest, most fulfilled inner state. When I saw construction sites, I … Continue reading Under Construction

Locked Out of Heaven

June 25, 2021June 16, 2021 ~ Gila Daman ~ 2 Comments

Yesterday I locked my keys in the car while multi-tasking since that’s what you do when you work full time and are given short notice from your landlord that you have to move. After 2 hours of me and my husband (mostly my husband) trying to unlock the car door with a hanger, I accidentally … Continue reading Locked Out of Heaven

On the Move

June 24, 2021June 16, 2021 ~ Gila Daman ~ Leave a comment

As I declutter and get rid of old clothes and belongings in preparation for my upcoming move, I'm feeling a unique energy right now. The fear of moving to the unknown, of letting go of what I’m comfortable with and what I identify with, of what gives me security. And yet at the same time, … Continue reading On the Move

Grieving About Moving

June 23, 2021June 16, 2021 ~ Gila Daman ~ 2 Comments

Last month we were told our lease wouldn’t be renewed since they wanted to sell the home. Thank G-d, we found a good alternative in this quick span of time. But I am still grieving over leaving this house that we happily resided in for two years. And— I’m dreading walking down the street and … Continue reading Grieving About Moving

Like Father, Like Daughter, Like Grandaughter

June 22, 2021June 16, 2021 ~ Gila Daman ~ Leave a comment

Just had another fulfilling nutrition session. As I was counseling the client, a prayer popped into my head: that my own daughter find a career as fulfilling as I find mine. I am ever so grateful for my journey of following in my father’s footsteps and becoming a health and wellness professional. I am doing … Continue reading Like Father, Like Daughter, Like Grandaughter
