Appreciate the Aura ring difficulties rundown. I have been looking at this but absolutely will not support a company that doesn’t back up their own warranty. Thanks for saving me $500
My fiancé was talking about the aura ring and we got sized and everything, he was so into the idea. Turns out he just wanted a sneaky way to get my ring size and he proposed like 2 months later lol.
lol. re the oura ring: there is no way there is a "small number" of people having this issue given their extremely formulaic response and suggestions. i think they're right that the ring wasn't "defective"... their software is probably just ... not good at detecting driving. i'll bet part of the reason they aren't gonna replace it is because they probably know getting a new one likely wouldn't fix the issue.
Oura ring: 😒. Definitely appreciative for the heads up, Taylor, bc that’s completely unacceptable customer service. Also, how wonderful that you were able to enjoy time in nature and get your new boots dirty! And thank you for the reminder to practice being grateful-it does put things in perspective. xo
Me. I'm drinking decaf. Caffeine is no bueno for my anxiety, but I still love coffee. I'm not saying you're not onto something, but I do appreciate knowing that the hotel has me covered.
I had to pause at 8:15 and say this : I have been following you since way before accutane and you have always been the down to earth “real” person that I always went back looking for- watching you grow into such a beautiful woman INSIDE and OUT has been so refreshing with what social media has done to so many creators. This video really touched me, you were where the vortex was but wow I swear I felt something because your vibe is so powerful!!! I would give anything to travel like you are so fearlessly and not letting anything break you to the point of no return. Really an incredible inspiration, and I totally added “Sedona’s vortex “ to my bucket list. Though I’m really going through some hard things (divorce with 3 children and a baby) migraines that won’t give up, and losing the only person I had left (my father) on June 6,2022- clicking onto video WILL ALWAYS bring me to a happy place ❤❤❤❤
My mom and I climbed to the very top of Bell Rock in 2019. The vortex energy up there is insane! Not to mention, an amazing view and overwhelming sense of peace. I felt the best I ever did in Sedona, and have been called to go back ever since I came back home.
What I absolutely love about your travel vlogs is that they are def beautiful and well edited but I always get a recommendation out of them, like actual actionable information, seriously Taylor that is so rare in content and I highly appreciate the effort and beauty you compile, gracias amiga 😘🤌🏼
Thank you 🥲🤍 I def relate to shedding a tear over being grateful for walking or being outside, usually it happens in silly mundane moments haha. Truly thanks for being courageous Taylor and inspiring so many!
As some one with Ehler's danlos syndrome I can say that being "healthy" &mobile being able to walk & do mundane type things is something I am incredibly thankful for. I've had a lot of bad months/years. Finding my fitness and honing in on things that help me feel my best & most functional has been such a gift. I am grateful for everyday. Hard now bkz my daughter is struggling with EDS so. I appreciate you being vulnerable and real in sharing your health journey to the extent that you do. I think it's very helpful to others.
Taylor, you are such an inspiration. I know you don't like talking about your health issues but to those of us going through it too, it's so meaningful to see you living a full life but also keeping it real. I had to retire early thanks to headaches and an autoimmune disorder. I went through a big depression but now, I'm so grateful because not working has allowed me to be a support to my daughter who has two special needs children. As always, enjoy the beautiful scenery and travel tips.
Wow! The colors are amazing! It would be cool if you started a “current nomad makeup look.” Like do a makeup look using the colors of Sedona or wherever you go next…if that makes sense.
Lol I'm only 9.5 min in, but I have to say, it's me! I'm the one drinking decaf! 🤣💕 I love making a cute little coffee drink but I don't process caffeine well. So decaf it is for me. When I lived in a hotel for a month after a house fire, I was always requesting more decaf, because they always replaced with regular 🤔 So far this vlog is so beautiful! 💗
Regarding your talk on gratitude… the way you feel about people being able to exercise is the same way I feel when i see all the amazing food you eat! I have severe TMJ issues and just had my first of 2 surgeries. I haven’t been able to chew food for 3 years. I can’t tell you how grateful I’ll be to eat something that doesn’t come from a blender when Im recovered in 2 years! Chronic pain makes you so grateful for the little things🥰
While I understand the coffee thing, my husband has to have decaf, so it always being available is really important to us. Going to a cafe and not having it, is a real bummer as well.
Thank you for normalizing traveling and adventuring with chronic illness. It's helped me be more patient with myself and know it's ok to set boundaries with other people when my migraines make travel more complicated. You've motivated me to travel overseas this year ❤️
I have a series 3 Apple Watch that I still use and love. Thank you for the honest review on the ring. And yes, sometimes knowing how difficult life can be makes us truly grateful for the blessings we do have ❤ thank you for the reminder and I hope you find more blessings and healing that you can share with us.
I drink decaf 😅 but I have hypertension so now that I take medicine, I try to cut out the caffeine. I drink coffee as part of my morning routine. Not so much for the added boost of energy. I was always tired with/without coffee anyway 🤷🏽♀️😂.
I have multiple sclerosis, so I can't walk far these days. I used to walk miles every day, and loved it. Then there are the days where my back pain is so bad, that what little I can walk, just gets completely cancelled, or a migraine will hit, and as you know, that's a no go. I write this to say, you're an inspiration. I often live vicariously thru you. Thank you for sharing your adventures!
There are a few other rings coming out in 2023, honestly after that type of experience I would wait and see what other technology comes out throughout the year. Love your vlogs thanks for sharing your experience!
@@taylorwynn yes, please don’t continue to support this brand. That’s a lot of money to not back up their product. There will be other tech that comes out that will be more worthy of your $$
Thanks for taking me back to Sedona for a visit. One of the most stunningly beautiful places in this country. Coincidently my lock screen is a photo from that trip so I get to see it every day. Thanks for battling through those migraines for us. Hormones went away and so did my migraines.
My middle child was born with CHDs and other medical concerns. That journey has absolutely led me to have more gratitude for the small things. Sleeping in my own bed, catching a cold without needing a hospital stay, birthdays, and spending time together at home with my other kids too. It's sad that it often does take something to shake your priorities into focus. But I totally am truly thankful for health, being able to do anything, and family. Lots of love to you and thanks for sharing your adventures!
Aura ring basically told you to zip it, lock it, put it in your pocket.....that's what I thought of when they told you to just simply put a $500 ring in your pocket. No ma'am !!! Glad you put them on blast. My husband swears by his apple watch. It's really making him more active too!! 🎉❤😊
I have a Fitbit and love it for the steps and sleep tracking. And I work from home and it's helpful to have a reminder to move every hour. I had a Samsung watch but felt it was too bulky and not worth the price since I was mainly using it for all the things a Fitbit does.
Your speech about being able to walk and be thankful is so true. I went on the Arizona trip in pain. My nerves unbeknownst to me was wrapped around my tumour (non cancerous) and every move and climb hurt so much.
Our health, mobility & clear minds is EVERYTHING! We should live gratefully, however big or small the blessings. Too many ppl focus on others' social media (highlight reels). Walk YOUR path, seek YOUR peace & stay in YOUR lane 😊✌🏾
We actually haven’t gotten a ton of rain this year so far, but the cool thing about the desert is it turns that green after just 1 rain. It doesn’t even need to rain very long for that to happen because desert trees and bushes have short root systems so they can survive the heat. Anyway, thanks for coming to my TEDTalk 😅 So happy you got to experience AZ during the prettiest time of year, our “Winter” is the best. I can’t wait to hear your updates about Mayo!! ❤
I get so excited when I see a TH-camr that I follow cone to AZ . I’ve lived in AZ for 27 years and I’ve only been to Sedona once. Your video definitely inspired me to do a little staycation and appreciate what I have in my own state
I don’t personally know anyone else with chronic stuff so I find a lot of solace in hearing you talk about your journey. Truly makes me feel less alone although I hate it for anyone who relates. I teared up when you were talking about gratitude for the little things bc it’s soo true. Sedona looks so beautiful!
Sedona is on another level. I’ve been twice - my second time was my first trip after Covid vaccines and restrictions were lifted. Gorgeous, stunning, etc. etc.
I will be in AZ next month....can't wait! I was already planning on Sedona and Jerome, but now I have added the Verde Valley train ride you suggested. I am driving out West from North Carolina all by myself for an epic solo road trip in April....just me and my beloved Kia Telluride! I'll be home-basing at my uncle's house in Colorado and also doing Arches and Moab, UT as well as Santa Fe/Albuquerque. (I lived in ABQ many years ago.) So, so excited and LOVING your AZ posts and videos!!! (You also "made" me buy 4 Dagne Dovers for my trip!)
Hey Taylor, I'm 1 of those weirdos who does drink decaf lol. Caffeine makes me dizzy and I have vertigo issues so regular no can do! But I just love the taste of coffee so decaf is the way for me. Sedona looks stunning wow!
The terrain reminds me of the Northern Territory in Australia, minus the snow!!! Similar rocks, red earth, beautiful natural rock formations. Last thing I expected!
100% agree with you on the chronic pain, appreciating the little things. Being able to go for a walk or a run after work is so important to me and when I can do that, it is so beneficial for my mental health.
FYI for anyone who is a "death before decaf" kinda person - people who have high blood pressure (or other medical conditions) can't have full caffeine but still want to enjoy coffee! So having a decaf option in hotels is actually very considerate! Please let us enjoy our beverages too!
Your comments on gratitude are such good advice. I’m going through it physically the last few months waiting for surgery and I miss being able to get out and hike and move my body. I will have much more gratitude after I get over this bump in the road. I do thing your correct, that unless you know what it’s like to struggle you don’t understand the blessings that good times mean.
I absolutely agree with chronic pain and gratitude... I am so grateful for the moments when my body is functioning, and I definitely seize the day, so to speak. That is also the brightside of chronic pain, the gratitude 💕 Second, I'm surprised about the ring and honestly grateful you told us because like you, I am excited about the sleep tracker...that's just bad business at this point, I will not buy from them, soon enough there will be competitive products. $500 is a lot for something that malfunctions that much. Also it's a ring, the whole point is to be able to forget about it, not have to remember to take it off everytime you drive...🧐🤔
I wanted to thank you for being positive. I was having a really bad morning today and whenever I watch your videos I get more motivated and positive to do things. I think we are so similar in our lifestyle that it’s nice to see someone doing the same things as me. Some people don’t get why you do things alone like sometimes it’s just needed and peaceful to be alone and get things done.
Omg I'm so glad you got to see Sedona like this! The snow and the red of the earth is a beautiful contrast! I live in AZ and glad to hear you enjoyed your hikes! 🥰
Hiii there! U know, oftentimes we take walking, breathing & u know, our five senses for granted. Just being alive is a gift. I also have chronic pain with Lupus. Most days, lately, I’ve been doing great. Thank you for reminding ME, that I’m still able to walk and do lots of things. I’m able to enjoy listening to nature, seeing the beautiful natural landscapes, smelling the fresh air, and being able to enjoy good food! I have a grandson that keeps me on my toes. I’m grateful for all! I love all your videos and look forward to them every week. Sending you gentle hugs, Great vibes and lotsa love 💕
I love that you keep pushing through your health struggles. You still take care of yourself, but you try not to let it slow you down. I’m chronically ill and it’s really great to watch you as an inspiration. I wish I was able to go out and just do things, maybe one day I’ll get my health under control and I can. In the meantime please keep showing your travels and days out like this!
Speaking of gratitude and migraines… Ubrelvy has been a complete game changer for me! Having so many things as an option now because of a single medication has brought more than a couple happy tears!
I just have to say, you are such an underrated travel vlogger. Your artistic eye for shots and overall feel is so brilliant! You have so many different TH-cam video styles (I started watching long ago for the makeup), but I'm here for these travel vlogs. You have me living vicariously through you! I'm justs a smalltown Minnesota girl who doesn't travel and probably never will to this extent. So *finger snaps*, you rock!
I used to be a fearless solo traveler too not long ago, then lockdown and other heavy stuff came, causing me to panic to even plan a trip anywhere further than the bakery down the street by myself. Therapy, medication and inspirational women like you have helped me so much! I have actually traveled a lot lately (even moved overseas) and there are some trips in sight for me this year. I watch your videos whilst getting ready for the day, they're everything! Much love from Spain, sweetie!
I love your travelogs Taylor!!! I went to Sedona and even though I am a medium and an energy healer I didn't really feel anything in the vortexes except some good peacefulness. It you want to feel something really powerful go to one of the standing stone sites in Great Britain, And PS if you call the hotel office and tell them about the bad wifi there is sometimes something they can do. Also always call the office for more coffee packets - they are usually happy to oblige.
The ring is probably tracking your hand movements. People at work got financial incentives towards their health insurance premiums if they got & used Fitbits. It required walking a certain # of steps per day, and movement every hour or two. They figured out that if they moved their arms, the Fitbit would start tracking steps. Instead of getting up to move, you’d see them at their desks or in meetings swinging their arms.
Absolutely, and in addition, there can be issues with the app importing data from the Apple health app, which might be doubling the numbers. I’ve learned I have to keep them from accessing each other in the settings to avoid this. But honestly she’s better sending it back, I’ve used them for 5 years and I’m personally over the company as well.
Sorry you are not feeling well, you are so positive about turning your pain into a blessing. My husband suffers from chronic pain it is tuff and you are awesome. Safe travels, take care.❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
You are making me want to go to Sedona BIG TIME! So beautiful. As for Oura, screw them- what absolutely horrible customer service. Infuriating-they had 2 chances to make it right and failed miserably.
I can’t believe your not at a million subs! You are the most enjoyable, funny, smart, best informed mua. Love you! Plus nothing stops you. You are truly a lovely person ❤️
I’m from a small town not far from Sedona called Flagstaff. I went to Sedona a lot as a kid. Now I take my kids. If you get to visit Flagstaff. Stop into Josephine’s for breakfast, lunch or dinner. Be safe. Have fun!
Yes your in my home state AZ! Glad you got to do some hiking in Sedona. Such a beautiful place and you went at a good time when it’s not as crowded. Enjoying your vlogs. ❤
“Be grateful for walking” yes. As I lay here with my broken ankle 😅 it’s been 5 weeks hopefully they take my cast off in my next appointment🤞 can’t wait for it your vlogs have definitely helped to pass the time💗
I live in AZ and Sedona is my absolute favorite place. So beautiful with the red rocks. Glad you enjoyed your visit. I really look forward all your videos. 🥰 . Oh the Javelina Cantina is where we go everytime and I always get the catfish rellano. I've tried it fried but the blackened is my favorite. So glad you liked it too. 😊
I SO love your videos!! I love the content, YOU as an influencer ( your personality, humor, viewpoint) and the music, intro and editing. You have become one of my very favorites!!😍 Thank you Taylor!!
There are so many natural markets/grocers that are specific to Sedona (Northern Arizona) area. If you ever get back there, skip the whole foods and shop some of the local markets. They are really cool.
Sedona 🥾 is one of my favorite places. Glad you enjoyed it. I’m one of the few people who drink decaf coffee ☕️, love coffee but try to avoid lots of caffeine.
Thank you for the All Trails app recommendation!!!! I was just saying yesterday I wanted to find easy hikes to start going on with my kids this summer but didn’t know where any trails were. Even in my TINY town it found local trails!
I highly recommend the garnier sleek and shine leave in conditioner in the neon green bottle. I think garnier does a good job with hair products in general. It's my go-to. Also that leave in conditioner smells of green apple which everyone compliments me on the smell
Thank you, Taylor! This was a wonderful reminder of my trip to Sedona this past November. We ate at Wildflower twice and I have that same map of Sedona hanging in my cube at work. 😄 I miss those red rocks so much. 😌❤️🌵🌄
I ordered the Wet n Wild blush- peach bums.... it is amazing!! I also applied some on the center of my lips, then blended it in for a shimmery look!! AND, it was on sale for under $3!🎉💕
Love all your videos, and thank you for always being genuine. I’m so sorry you have so many tough health days, and also appreciate that you soak in the good days - I can relate to both,..and it’s inspiring to see your positive attitude towards it all 💛
I have been dying for this content! This is such an obtainable relatively quick trip for me. Also, the editing on your vlogs is nearing perfection. Your style and music choices are a vibe.
The Havalina Cantina is a great place to do outdoor dining. Great food, drinks and views. Sedona is so beautiful. I'm happy you got to experience it with some snowy accents.
Appreciate the Aura ring difficulties rundown. I have been looking at this but absolutely will not support a company that doesn’t back up their own warranty. Thanks for saving me $500
Came to say the same thing!
Same!! So glad we didn’t purchase!
SAME
Same
Same I was really ready to spend money on this but no thanks. Thanks for saving us Taylor ❤
My fiancé was talking about the aura ring and we got sized and everything, he was so into the idea. Turns out he just wanted a sneaky way to get my ring size and he proposed like 2 months later lol.
Wait that’s genius haha
My husband and I were looking into them as well. Well not now.
Congratulations on your engagement!!!
Okay seriously that is so amazing so you had not the slightest idea . He’s a keeper for sure! Congrats 🎊🍾

Wow you look incredible for your age👏

Agree 100%!! Ive been to arizona several times and im sad i never knew abt the vortex!

Wow! The colors are amazing! It would be cool if you started a “current nomad makeup look.” Like do a makeup look using the colors of Sedona or wherever you go next…if that makes sense.
Great suggestion
My lease is up at the end of May and you've inspired me to live the nomad life for at least a year. So thank you for sharing your travels with us 💕
Just wanted to say again, that I really appreciate all of your editing work for us to experience your trips. 🤗
Lol I'm only 9.5 min in, but I have to say, it's me! I'm the one drinking decaf! 🤣💕
I love making a cute little coffee drink but I don't process caffeine well. So decaf it is for me.
When I lived in a hotel for a month after a house fire, I was always requesting more decaf, because they always replaced with regular 🤔
So far this vlog is so beautiful! 💗
Solo hikes are the best!!! A couple years ago I stayed in Banff, Canada alone for 10 DAYS and just hiked, went out to restaurants, and smoked trees :)
Regarding your talk on gratitude… the way you feel about people being able to exercise is the same way I feel when i see all the amazing food you eat!

I wanted to thank you for being positive. I was having a really bad morning today and whenever I watch your videos I get more motivated and positive to do things. I think we are so similar in our lifestyle that it’s nice to see someone doing the same things as me. Some people don’t get why you do things alone like sometimes it’s just needed and peaceful to be alone and get things done.
Sedona in the winter is so beautiful! Welcome to Arizona!! I have lived here most of my life and you chose a lovely time of year to visit!!
Omg I'm so glad you got to see Sedona like this! The snow and the red of the earth is a beautiful contrast! I live in AZ and glad to hear you enjoyed your hikes! 🥰
You really inspire me with how you persevere through chronic pain to still participate in life!!!
Hiii there! U know, oftentimes we take walking, breathing & u know, our five senses for granted. Just being alive is a gift. I also have chronic pain with Lupus. Most days, lately, I’ve been doing great. Thank you for reminding ME, that I’m still able to walk and do lots of things. I’m able to enjoy listening to nature, seeing the beautiful natural landscapes, smelling the fresh air, and being able to enjoy good food! I have a grandson that keeps me on my toes. I’m grateful for all! I love all your videos and look forward to them every week. Sending you gentle hugs, Great vibes and lotsa love 💕
I love that you keep pushing through your health struggles. You still take care of yourself, but you try not to let it slow you down. I’m chronically ill and it’s really great to watch you as an inspiration. I wish I was able to go out and just do things, maybe one day I’ll get my health under control and I can. In the meantime please keep showing your travels and days out like this!
Speaking of gratitude and migraines… Ubrelvy has been a complete game changer for me! Having so many things as an option now because of a single medication has brought more than a couple happy tears!
Here in Norway it’s completely normal to go on hikes on your own 😊
I just have to say, you are such an underrated travel vlogger. Your artistic eye for shots and overall feel is so brilliant! You have so many different TH-cam video styles (I started watching long ago for the makeup), but I'm here for these travel vlogs. You have me living vicariously through you! I'm justs a smalltown Minnesota girl who doesn't travel and probably never will to this extent. So *finger snaps*, you rock!
I used to be a fearless solo traveler too not long ago, then lockdown and other heavy stuff came, causing me to panic to even plan a trip anywhere further than the bakery down the street by myself. Therapy, medication and inspirational women like you have helped me so much! I have actually traveled a lot lately (even moved overseas) and there are some trips in sight for me this year. I watch your videos whilst getting ready for the day, they're everything! Much love from Spain, sweetie!
I love your travelogs Taylor!!! I went to Sedona and even though I am a medium and an energy healer I didn't really feel anything in the vortexes except some good peacefulness. It you want to feel something really powerful go to one of the standing stone sites in Great Britain, And PS if you call the hotel office and tell them about the bad wifi there is sometimes something they can do. Also always call the office for more coffee packets - they are usually happy to oblige.
The ring is probably tracking your hand movements.
People at work got financial incentives towards their health insurance premiums if they got & used Fitbits. It required walking a certain # of steps per day, and movement every hour or two.
They figured out that if they moved their arms, the Fitbit would start tracking steps. Instead of getting up to move, you’d see them at their desks or in meetings swinging their arms.
Absolutely, and in addition, there can be issues with the app importing data from the Apple health app, which might be doubling the numbers. I’ve learned I have to keep them from accessing each other in the settings to avoid this. But honestly she’s better sending it back, I’ve used them for 5 years and I’m personally over the company as well.
I use the shiseido eyelash curler. It has less curvature so I'm able to get it fully against my lash line.
Currently in Sedona for the Mountain Bike festival and with all the snow we didn't get to ride much so enjoying the area and the experience.
the views are absolutely stunning
Sorry you are not feeling well, you are so positive about turning your pain into a blessing. My husband suffers from chronic pain it is tuff and you are awesome. Safe travels, take care.❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
I went to college in flagstaff and made a few trips down to Sedona. It’s one of my favorite places! So glad you got to visit!
I admire you so much! You do and experiences so many different places, all whilst living with chronic pain. Its admirable xx
You are making me want to go to Sedona BIG TIME! So beautiful. As for Oura, screw them- what absolutely horrible customer service. Infuriating-they had 2 chances to make it right and failed miserably.
Thanks for reminder about being grateful darl. ❤ come travelling in New Zealand! You will absolutely love it-love ALL your work
Just mix the regular with the decaf... not as strong but you would get to make more cups of coffee ☕☕☕☕😋😁😊
My goodness I have not been to Sedona in years. I always went in the summer. Great reminder about gratitude for the simple things❤️
enjoy with the soul this beautiful vlog🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍
Your thoughts on gratitude is very inspiring. ❤ I love watching your journey.
Arizona is definitely on my bucket list! I also love solo hiking, too! It's so freeing.
I can’t believe your not at a million subs! You are the most enjoyable, funny, smart, best informed mua. Love you! Plus nothing stops you. You are truly a lovely person ❤️
Taylor, you’re so right about appreciating everything so much more when you’re a chronic pain patient.
I'm finally on spring break! I am going to be binging you this week. I love your honesty
I’m from a small town not far from Sedona called Flagstaff. I went to Sedona a lot as a kid. Now I take my kids. If you get to visit Flagstaff. Stop into Josephine’s for breakfast, lunch or dinner. Be safe. Have fun!
Yes your in my home state AZ! Glad you got to do some hiking in Sedona. Such a beautiful place and you went at a good time when it’s not as crowded. Enjoying your vlogs. ❤
“Be grateful for walking” yes. As I lay here with my broken ankle 😅 it’s been 5 weeks hopefully they take my cast off in my next appointment🤞 can’t wait for it your vlogs have definitely helped to pass the time💗
So surreal to see you in places at Sedona that I was at a couple years ago - such beautiful sights and hiking spots!!
I live in AZ and Sedona is my absolute favorite place. So beautiful with the red rocks. Glad you enjoyed your visit. I really look forward all your videos. 🥰 . Oh the Javelina Cantina is where we go everytime and I always get the catfish rellano. I've tried it fried but the blackened is my favorite. So glad you liked it too. 😊
Love your videos and thank you for writing the recommendations in the description box!❤
I SO love your videos!! I love the content, YOU as an influencer ( your personality, humor, viewpoint) and the music, intro and editing. You have become one of my very favorites!!😍
Thank you Taylor!!
There are so many natural markets/grocers that are specific to Sedona (Northern Arizona) area. If you ever get back there, skip the whole foods and shop some of the local markets. They are really cool.
Sedona 🥾 is one of my favorite places. Glad you enjoyed it. I’m one of the few people who drink decaf coffee ☕️, love coffee but try to avoid lots of caffeine.
Thank you for the All Trails app recommendation!!!! I was just saying yesterday I wanted to find easy hikes to start going on with my kids this summer but didn’t know where any trails were. Even in my TINY town it found local trails!
I just love seeing you having a great time. Idk what it is, but being able to watch people have cool experiences makes me smile so hard 😍
OMG, I live near Sedona I'm Navajo and would've loved to have met you and take you around! Natural hot springs would help your pain. Hugs!
I highly recommend the garnier sleek and shine leave in conditioner in the neon green bottle. I think garnier does a good job with hair products in general. It's my go-to. Also that leave in conditioner smells of green apple which everyone compliments me on the smell
Went to Sedona during the summer and went to most of the same spots, loved it there, loved seeing so much of it on video!! 😍😍
Sedona is magical! Although we hiked in spring when there wasn’t snow. You are brave to hike when it’s slippery.
Sedona is so magical, definitely want to go back! Love seeing it again through your lens! :)
Thank you, Taylor! This was a wonderful reminder of my trip to Sedona this past November. We ate at Wildflower twice and I have that same map of Sedona hanging in my cube at work. 😄 I miss those red rocks so much. 😌❤️🌵🌄
Omg adore wildflower!!!
I ordered the Wet n Wild blush- peach bums.... it is amazing!! I also applied some on the center of my lips, then blended it in for a shimmery look!! AND, it was on sale for under $3!🎉💕
Love all your videos, and thank you for always being genuine. I’m so sorry you have so many tough health days, and also appreciate that you soak in the good days - I can relate to both,..and it’s inspiring to see your positive attitude towards it all 💛
I have been dying for this content! This is such an obtainable relatively quick trip for me. Also, the editing on your vlogs is nearing perfection. Your style and music choices are a vibe.
The Havalina Cantina is a great place to do outdoor dining. Great food, drinks and views. Sedona is so beautiful. I'm happy you got to experience it with some snowy accents.
I live in Sedona and love every minute of it!
I love watching your videos. You seem like such a wonderful person and I love seeing where you travel to!❤
I had no idea that it snowed in Sedona! It looks beautiful.
It's so nice how u take us with u all over your the best my favorite 💓
