Ovida Wellness

Wellness is a Journey, Not a Destination

In 2024, one of my biggest goals was to create a digital wellness community where people could come together, share their journeys, and support one another. Ovida Wellness was born out of my own wellness journey, which began in April 2023. I struggled to ﬁnd an online space that truly aligned with my values, so I created one myself. Representation matters, and I wanted to build a community that reﬂects that.

Before launching Ovida, I took a year to focus on my own wellness, making sure I could show up authentically. The process of self-discovery and personal growth is never easy, but it’s deeply rewarding. Ovida is about rebirth and unlocking new levels of wellness.

describe being well apa multidimensional —physical, emotional, ﬁnancial, social, intellectual, occupational, cultural, environmental, and spiritual. Ovida explores each of these dimensions, encouraging you to ﬁnd your unique path. Your wellness journey is deeply personal, and no two paths look the same. The key is to give yourself the time and grace to evolve.

Whether you are just starting your journey, or well on your path, I encourage you to keep reading, and subscribe for updates and join our community. Together, we’ll navigate the paths to living well and with intention. Click here to stay connected and share your journey with us!

The New York Affair

Romanticizing NYC, one step at a time

As a millennial professional and healthcare worker, I understand the struggle of balancing a demanding career with the desire to explore the world. Burnout is real, and quitting your job to follow your passion isn’t always practical. That’s why I’ve dedicated myself to finding harmony between an excelling career and my love for solo travel.

I’ve explored destinations like Spain, France, Italy, Portugal, and Greece, while balancing a 9-to-5 (or in my case, an 8-to-4 with every other weekend on shift). More recently, I’ve found joy and adventure exploring closer to home—New York City, upstate New York, and New England. It turns out, my backyard is bigger than I thought!

Through Liaison & Co., I share my travel experiences, practical guides, and tips for navigating work, life, and travel with intention. My goal is to help you live a balanced, fulfilling life, whether you’re traveling the globe or exploring your local community.
