I ask myself a lot how I could bring value to you. From one hand, I know success very well. I made so many of my biggest dreams come true. When I saw this hotel from my little boat when sailing across the Pacific, I told myself I will come back here as a guest one day (broke in to take the photo, sorry Four Seasons ???). And I did. I wanted to learn how to create travel photos I envisioned in my head for years and I did. I wanted to live in LA by the beach and I do. ::::: From the other hand, I know sooooo much about failure, shame, humiliation, disappointing people, disappointing myself, sleeping in the same bed but dreaming different dreams, self-destructive behavior, ruthless enemies, death threats and false friends. :::::: I know what it’s like to get 100,000 likes on a photo to then only get 1000 likes on the same photo a year later. But I also know that getting smaller engagement doesn’t depress me because what I post these days makes me so much happier. It’s like having a friend who only wants to travel with you but doesn’t want to hang out with you when you’re home. ::::: I was never Miss Popular in school, and always preferred a smaller group of close friends than crowds of acquaintances. It’s no different now. Better a smaller circle but mine-er circle ? ::::: I’m doing a zoom call for my email list (even smaller circle) And I’ll be chatting about my recovery from really tough two years that taught me a lot about life. I would have never been able to have this call and bring so much insight if I didn’t go through all that shit since this photo was taken two years ago. But now. Now I want to help other women so they don’t have to go through what I went through. :::: (If you want to join the call, the link to the mailing list is in bio!) Chat soon, my close peeps! x Aggie :::::: #borabora #frenchpolynesia #holiday #strongnwomen

Grow so f*cking much you will need to reintroduce yourself to your friends (or people you met before the quarantine!). :::: Grow doesn’t mean succeeding and getting shit right all the time. I took this photo exactly a year ago today. I changed sooo much in a year and so much from the year before. I wasn’t becoming more successful by the society standards but I learned and learned and learned. :::: My bad taste in swimwear improved (haha nothing against Borat-style swimwear but prefer my @aggieswimwear made from plastic bottles). ::::: I went from working 24/7 to spending an entire week traveling and not touching the camera for the first time in 6 years. ::::: I might have been able to produce the coolest Instagram worthy travel photos before but I was a workaholic. :::: A good day was a day where I was productive and got things done. A better day was when I got even more done and was even more productive. When I think about it now I think that workaholics are the least fun people to be around. They think what they do is so important they can’t take a day off. They are rarely present. They burn out. :::: I’m so glad I’m not that girl anymore. I’m glad it didn’t take my deathbed to learn how to flow better! Excited for more growth, now and always! ::::: #alwayslearning #alwaysgrowing #flowbabyflow #borat #tulum #mexico

Today I wanna send a virtual hug to all the girls out there with their hearts broken. Below quote from #EatPrayLove :::: ‘I remember a story my friend Deborah the psychologist told me once. She was asked if she could volunteer to offer counseling to a group of Cambodian refugees—boat people—who had recently arrived in the city. Deborah was terribly daunted by this task. These Cambodians suffered the worst of what humans can inflict on each other—genocide, rape, torture, starvation, the murder of their relatives before their eyes, then long years in refugee camps and dangerous boat trips to the West where people died and corpses were fed to sharks—what could Deborah offer these people in terms of help? How could she possibly relate to their suffering? ::::: “But don’t you know,“ Deborah reported to me, “what all these people wanted to talk about, once they could see a counselor?“ :::: It was all: I met this guy when I was living in the refugee camp, and we fell in love. I thought he really loved me, but then we were separted on different boats, and he took up with my cousin. Now he’s married to her, but he says he really loves me, and he keeps calling me, and I know I should tell him to go away, but I still love him and I can’t stop thinking about him. And I don’t know what to do… :::: This is what we are like. Collectively, as a species, this is our emotional landscape. I met an old lady once, almost one hundred years old, and she told me, “There are only two questions that human beings have ever fought over, all through history. How much do you love me? And Who’s in charge? Everything else is somehow manageable.’ ::::: You would think that number one question in my DM‘s would be about travel destinations but it is always about relationships and guys ? And the more I travel the more I feel we girls care about the same things – does he love me? why doesn’t he? Because if he did, he wouldn’t do X, Y, Z. How do I get over him? I wish I could help you But answers usually come much later in the future when we meet the right person and when everything makes sense after all. But for now, we gonna stick together and stay strong ?? #whoruntheworld #saudi
