In previous blogs, I wrote you postcards (along with my itinerary) from my travel adventures in Southern France, Italy, and Morocco. This voyage was dedicated to the Savor Beauty ethos: savor each moment and find beauty in the unexpected.

We wrapped up our travels in Paris before heading back to our bustling lives in Manhattan. We spent our days walking through the City of Light’s stunning streets, soaking in the beauty around every corner. 


As luck would have it, we arrived on the last day of the Paralympics and had the chance to watch the blind marathoners running with their guides—a powerful reminder of the immense courage and strength it takes to achieve your dreams.

The Beauty of Manifesting Your Dreams

One evening, we spent time with our good friends, Michelle and Josh, who recently achieved their dream of moving from California to Paris. The evening was filled with laughter, tears, and deep conversations that lasted until 2AM.

We reflected on life “before and after” their big move and how they have been savoring every moment of their new life. It made me think: the real beauty isn’t just in achieving a dream, but in savoring it once it’s here.

This lesson felt even more profound as I thought about our time in Nice, where we had dinner with friends who had just moved into an apartment overlooking the Mediterranean Sea. 


It had always been Nedha’s goal to live there, and even when it seemed impossible, she kept working on manifesting her dream. Once she found the perfect location, everything fell into place.

Now, every morning, she swims in the sea with her husband, and as she turns to face their apartment, she reflects on life before. She didn’t use the word “gratitude”; it felt deeper—she feels what life was like before and after: 


“I remember what life was like before, so I never forget how much I fought for this and how good it feels to have it.”


There’s an irresistible glow in her eyes, a radiance that comes from truly appreciating what she has manifested.

We are about to enter the last 90 days of the year, and I invite you to reflect on your own dreams. As I share in my book, Radical Radiance: 12 Weeks to Manifest Abundance, Beauty, and Joy, Manifesting Dreams is not just about the tangibles—it’s also about how you want to feel. 


After this trip to Paris, I’m reminded how we often spend so much time chasing dreams that we forget to appreciate them when they come true. It’s about remembering your “before” so you can truly savor your “after.”

Nedha and Michelle both have that glimmer in their eye, that attitude of gratitude, and a gorgeous appreciation for life that lifts everyone around them. It’s an alluring, high-vibrational energy that radiates from within. As I have now come to realize, “The beauty of contentment is wanting what you have.”
