Introducing Visit Montecito!

Hi friends! I’ve started an additional blog, Visit Montecito, to highlight the 93108 area. I get so many questions about Montecito and requests for recommendations, so I decided to create a space all about my hometown! Please follow along on Instagram and check out the website!

I’ve already completed several blog posts for the site, and you can read the posts here.

I hope that you enjoy photos of this beautiful part of California and learn more about my favorite area of Santa Barbara! Thank you so much for following along.

Don’t worry, I’ll be back to writing and podcasting for The Bets Life soon too!

NEW episode of The Bets Life Podcast with @meredit NEW episode of The Bets Life Podcast with @meredith_costumes of @palmacolectiva 🎤 

Episode 69: From Hollywood Costume Designer to Wellness Founder: Meredith Markworth-Pollack on Burnout, Healing, & Starting Over 🙏 

In this episode, I’m joined by Meredith Markworth-Pollack, founder of holistic wellness space, Palma Colectiva. Meredith spent almost two decades as a costume designer on shows like Gossip Girl, Reign, Hart of Dixie, and Dynasty. After facing major industry burnout, she decided to uproot her life, move to Santa Barbara, and start from scratch in the wellness space. 👗 

We chat about success not being enough, struggling with multiple forms of grief, and “wellness” becoming a popular buzzword. Meredith shares the ups and downs of starting and maintaining a business and how there isn’t only one “right” healing modality for someone. She shares about divorce, creating retreats for women, and how listening to herself and choosing health changed everything. 🕊️ 

Whether you are seeking clarity, community, or well-being, I believe you will benefit from this conversation that proves vulnerability really is a super power! 👏🏻
