ten thousand hours


Nick Alvarez, the main man at Cross Fit South Miami, and personal friend of mine, reached out to me on January 7 at approximately ten pm looking for marketing for his little brother Eddy.  Eddy Alvarez, the first Cuban American male speed skater to ever make a US Olympic team is home grown. He placed, and placed and then placed again. He made history. He plans on doing it again in baseball. I plan on spearheading the marketing. I’m willing to invest ten thousand hours. Nick, you are the most dope older brother ever.  Brotherly love has never looked so good, felt so deeply. Well done! Ricky rolls with some great folk.

Speaking of love, Vanessa Scotto blew us all away with her Life Coaching at LuluLemon South Miami. Darren and I were front row center. The topic was love. Heee! LULU only symbol making me happy this week.

April, I’m coming at you with Steve Madden and a clear definition of the Jewish year soon.

I ran my first 5k with Roman and Darren. I needed some of the Boxed Water I met in New York. It was the Tour de Broward 5k benefitting Joe DiMaggio Children’s Hospital. It was our first family run. We are family. It fits. It’s appropriate.

Zoe is all about Vida Mujer! Me, a fitness guru! Hmmm. If ClearChannel wants to, I’m willing.

Ask Cristie finalized the mass production of Eat Me Guilt Free Brownies, conveyor belt and all. Place orders people, tight bodies can eat chocolate!!!

She is tiny and strong, her name is Aryan and she is the heartbeat of Jet Set Pilates. I will be hanging out there more often, they elongate muscles in this place. I feel taller and definitely at peace! Funky socks don’t hurt either. It’s a must try.

I’m a Master. Laura and I are killing it. I can’t wait to host. Darren wants to watch me in person-live!!! No way, he will have to be a Coachee like everyone else. I am shy in front of him still. A year later and I still feel lil sometimes. For the most part tho, I feel like I’m ten feet tall when I am with him.

Doctor Dribble placed in today’s 5k, it’s amazing, he says he was taking it slow. The man is a beast. His Doctor Dribble Helping Hands is reaching new levels. Ever since he opened his own charity, he has been able to reach so many more children. It is uplifting.

Tzedakah means charity, I will be running for Purim together with my Rabbi on March 16! Please join us.

Attention all Spartans, I am so happy to cheer for you guys! I will be there getting my Spartaaaaaa on! Can’t wait! I wanna see you be brave.

So many fantastic things happening this week, I can barely sleep. It’s great to be so excited for life. I am. I’m thriving. It’s the oxytocin. March looks like it’s Mad.

 

and if you don’t know, I love a Coach, what would John Wooden think?

a perfect storm hit NYC

IMG_0735 IMG_0738The glitz and the glamour was a bit overwhelming this weekend! I live in Miami where beautiful people are everywhere but what I experienced this weekend was just insane. We stayed in the Upper East side thanks to some of my closest friends. April and I had lunch with Christy Turlington and Deborah Roker in Eataly to start a glorious weekend. We prayed in church. My Jewish friend walked me in and sat next to me as I asked for guidance and forgiveness. We practiced Yoga in Jivamukti and danced the warlike movements of Capoeira. I was Footloose and free with Kevin Bacon and dumbfounded by the timeless beauty in Christie Brinkley. Madison Square Gardens has nothing on the home of the Heat! Basketball in New York was fun but I’m spoiled! #HeatNation all day, all night.

The Book of Mormon had us laughing out loud. Loud, love and laugh like that! The St. Regis was so sexy.  I felt Mr. Big would walk in at any moment. My sister Charna brought some of that Sex in the City feel to our table, even if it was for a brief moment. Life is made up of moments.

The Month of February has shown me so much love already and it’s still not Valentine’s Day! Even MC Yogi would be pleased. He believes like me, what we give is what we get. I guess then, I have given a lot. Laura, April, Babelyn, Lynette, Julie and even Maria came up last week to show me love!! I saw it, I felt it and as always, I am in your debt.

My first webinar was a success. It was a hit! We received rave reviews. The topic was Health and Fitness. Change is absolutely possible. I am walking proof. I plan on spreading this message repeatedly. I hope everyone gets infected. Health is wealth, and I am filthy rich. It’s a choice, follow me, I’ll take you there.

My friend Frankie is heading up a race for Red Bull. I am running in this marathon. It’s hashtag on Instagram is #wingsforlife. It’s appropriately named a run for the world. A global run. I like that. I have to be the ugliest runner I know, my form is just sad. However, my intention is for a greater good. If you feel like joining me, call my office and I’ll help you sign up. 305.903.7160 ask for Mighty. I run in a group on Tuesdays and Thursdays with Mallory at Newton’s Method, it made me a runner- she is a miracle worker.

On the plane headed home, I have a penguin and a bear that need me to rescue them. I hope your Valentine’s Day is complete with mushy gushy, love and all that sweet stuff.

April, I never forget the good, the bad or the ugly. My friend, you rose to the top! Kind of untouchable. I knew I liked you, but now I love you. It’s funny how that developed. I’m glad it did. Z Cavaricci’s for life.

This blog was really written on an iCloud, how cool is that?

and if you don’t know, I’m coming at you like a dark horse,

Love Month

Ok! This week we are going to do a little something different! On Instagram, I asked the followers of @revete to please offer some blog ideas. You know, topics they suggest I write about! I got some interesting suggestions. I’m going to do my best in this week’s blog to accommodate some of those requests. I will write on three of the topics and maybe next month do this again. Interaction is healthy and I love to communicate. Social media is a brave new world! For purposes of business, it can be very lucrative too. I am old school tho, I love to love my real peeps in person.

@micasalsburg : Four million cats are eaten in Asia annually. Twenty four cat skins make a coat. During the Middle Ages, cats were associated with witchcraft, people all over Europe would stuff them in sacks and throw them into bonfires. On holy days, people celebrated by tossing cats off Church Towers. In North America, cats are the most popular pets. The first cat to go to outer space was appropriately named “Astrocat”. She was a female of course. In slang language the word “puss” is associated with soft, warm and fuzzy body parts. Just like a cat. According to the Hebrew legend, God made a lion sneeze and out popped a cat to protect the food on Noah’s Ark from rats. It must have been a Jewish lion! Cats spend nearly one third of their lives cleaning themselves. Cleanliness is Godliness! There is a cat named Blackie that inherited 15 million Euro from his owner, he is the richest cat in the world. Sadly, he has no one to share his wealth with. Thank you for allowing me the opportunity to learn and grow.

@obscureinspiration406 : Happiness is the greatest paradox in nature. It is a choice I make daily. It takes courage. I fight for it. I exercise to keep it! I often ask my son to tell me stories. His way of speaking makes me laugh immediately. I try to keep matters of the heart at bay. I find they are challenging for me. I remember the people I have loved that are not with me anymore. It brings me to a place of peace. I try to eat clean and use no medicine. Happiness is in my music. I play music everywhere I am. I usually play upbeat music unless, my heart has been broken. When this happens, I make a choice to forgive and move on. After all, there is a reason for the season! Usually, I will play Barbra Streisand during these episodes. Obscure, you have made me think! I am better because of you! Thank you!

@jango_cat : I don’t know why or how you and I came together! Positive thinking is also an effort consuming task. All of my life, I have practiced smiling. It is for me a great source of energy and cure. No matter what happens, I keep positive. Gratitude is probably the reason why I have the good vibe shield! It could very well be the reason you are my friend on Instagram and now in real life. You and I both know very well how false social media can be and how profitable at the same time! I am indebted to you! I thank you from the bottom of my being for every #wicked, #hot #dope you have ever shared with me! @jango_cat you are a very #coolcat! Canadian too!

I hope you guys are happy with my blurbs on your topics! I am always willing to learn.

and if you don’t know, happy month of love,

feel my pain

According to runner’s world, everyday health, I have just joined a private club. Only 0.5% of the American population has run a marathon. I’ll bet a lot fewer of that American population have run a marathon the day after they ran a half marathon. I really didn’t see my decision to run these marathons (39.3 miles collectively) as anything more than joining someone I love in something he does for a living. I woke up! I can’t move. I’m in pain. Wow!
As I lay in bed thinking of the soreness throughout my body, I realized that it was not a decision to run at all! It was a decision to submit to a new way of life. It was a mind shift. The difference in making my body strong, stronger than ever was my trainer. He is the difference.
For approximately one year, I have been training at a very extreme level (nutrition, sleep schedules, exercise). I do not lift bars with compounded weights at the either side ever. I do not use drugs. I am so energetic every day. I can do anything I set myself up to do. It is 100% because of my training experience. I am unstoppable. I am healthy. It is freedom. It is a choice.
I am asked daily what I do to look and stay younger and stronger. My response is always the same. My trainer.
Health is wealth! I am very wealthy. I am so grateful for this newfound richness. I am alive because of it.
Life has a new zest. For God sakes, I am part of an elite club! I am now a marathoner. More people walk around with a titanium American Express Card. Haaa!
It is not by irony that I have done so much for myself and my son in the very same year I have been training with him. It is because internal strength becomes external too.
The pain I am in now is temporary, the rewards to this pain are exponential. I see those rewards reveal themselves daily. I am a better person because of this pain. I owe this betterment to my trainer.
I want to Shout it Out, call my trainer. I want this greatness to be an epidemic. I want you to feel my pain. It is amazing! Statistically, I burned 4,320 calories running this weekend, I gained a lifetime of wonderful.

You be Ike, I’ll be Mike

This year hit me hard!! I’m still standing. Bowing down to a bully is not my style. We all encounter trials and tribulations and it’s important to stand up for yourself even if it means cleaning the dust off and going toe to toe. I love to clean and for the most part have great posture. I slouch only in the movies. Doctor Dribble and I can marathon movies like champs! Thank God for loyal boyfriends, best personal trainer in Miami! “Wolf on WallStreet” best movie in the past twelve months by far.

I celebrated a mile marker today. I have been nicotine free for one year. Smoking kills! It’s like throwing your lungs in prison. There were a few moments where I had to wrestle with my demons, and once where I had to put my fists up and say enough! It worked. Kerry Gaynor might be 5’6 and have a small voice but he enables a smoker to overcome addiction. For those of you looking to buy the life-saving package, do not call me! Go to www.stopsmokingstartliving.com instead. I don’t sell the method, I am walking breathing proof of the method.

Speaking of websites, atreve-t.com is almost ready! I have been working closely with the designer, Mr. Tony Ellis throughout the holiday break. He is very much an Officer and a Gentleman! Thank you Tony. His preliminary work has already changed the range in demographics of my audience. I am #sohappy with the letters and responses I have been receiving. Empowering others is a gift I never get tired of opening.

Speaking of gifts, how many engagements did we see on Instagram this holiday season? Wow! The statistic is that 33% of engagements happen between Turkey Day and New Year’s Eve. There was a huge jump in jewelry sales this holiday season. I got the most romantic gift from my Doctor. So black and white of you. The atmosphere helps with all of the romance I suppose. Never relied much on statistics. Keep tweeting, TWTR has only brought my ninja and I more success.

“Love to Shout” is my new flavor and I am thankful for this. I will be very active in #spreadthelove project too. Very excited to reach droves of people and share motivation, truth and inspiration. I have always been the girl behind the brand, the man, the business. It’s time to be the brand, the man, the business.

Tax Season is upon us and of course, our favorite small boutique accounting firm is open for life! Lopez & Partners, LLC is eager to protect your dollars. 305.444.6030 for an appointment. Give a gift without condition or don’t.

I live with passion, I do everything 143% so I hear, I wish the same for each of you. Let’s reconvene here next Sunday and share stories about love, life and goodness.

and if you don’t know, Jenga, Joe’s and two blondes,
