Sabbatical Scene Report: Puerto Rico

The next stop on the sabbatical train: PUERTO RICOOOO! Chelsea takes us along for the ride through the island: family reunions the size of small weddings the beauty and chaos of island time the night that led to one violent hangover (!!) releasing the grip on making plans for the fam the surprising ways reconnecting with her Latina roots shifted how she wants to show up in life and business (yes, that means big gold hoops are coming back) feeling the Puerto Rican Pride between the Bad Bunny concert kickoff and watching a Latino couple win Love Island while in PR Other snippets: Why the sabbatical is likely extending for one more month Island time lessons and releasing control Sobriety slip-ups, and why self-awareness matters more than perfection Cultural permission to be “too much” Balancing group travel chaos with non-negotiable hermit time Some fun Puerto Rican traditions you may have never heard of before! Chelsea left Puerto Rico with a tan, and a mission to reconnect with her Latina side: hello arroz con habichuelas, gold hoops, and extremely animated, expressive, affectionate ways to connect!
