What are AGEs? Why do they matter?

We really need to stop being so obsessed as a society about weight.

Truly.

And focus on what REALLY matters which is vitality, health & lowering inflammation.

I did a story the other day where I weighed 100lbs but was SO inflamed. That’s not healthy.

Nor was gaining 30lbs and weighing 140lbs while struggling with an SSRI induced binge eating disorder.

Our food& the quality matters for the over all quality of our cell health and brain health.

It’s either preventative aging or it’s speeding up our aging & chronic condition rate.

Food is a chemical code for our cells that is designed to nourish and help different systems to run.

Beef is by far one of the most nutrient dense (and macro friendly being fat and protein/zero carb) substances we can put into our body.

Beef is not the issue in our modern world when it comes to health it’s the mixing of fat and sugar (sugar is truly one of the top issues) which form something called Advanced Glycation End Products (AGEs).

AGEs causes inflammation, oxidative stress, have been linked to serious conditions like renal failure, Alzheimer’s, diabetes and heart disease.

AGEs can also form from sugar mixing with protein in the bloodstream.

The common culprit is sugar.

Upping antioxidants rich foods & enzymes help to break AGEs down which is why I utilize a powerful compound daily and use with my clients to help support their body in the elimination of AGEs.

Our modern world is prime to accumulate AGEs rapidly with our food system and restaurants all using sugar and seed oils in literally everything.

If you’re ready to jump start back to health message me to talk about the right system for you to support your body & a 3 day supported fast to kick start your health and vibrancy journey.

Health is truly everything

Spill the Tea

OK, So I would NEVER spill this tea because it’s legit the best.

But I must share with you about this magic juice.

By now you guys know I am OBSESSED with the biome and gut health in general.

It has consumed all my free time lately and I am LOVING it.

Anyway,

Green tea has skin and biome bennies we NEED to discuss!

You want that glow, lit up from within look?

Ditch your dehydrating ass coffee and reach for a matcha with stevia.

Ditching aging alcohol? GREAT!

Keep some stevia and herbal packets of these bad boys in your purse. They mix perfectly with sparkling or still water (even cold) and are great instead of sugar filled mock-tails EW.

I legit am at the bar or dinner with my tea packets and stevia no fucks given, sipping my way to better health, glowing skin and a sexy ass biome.

Make it work for you babe.

Hot girl SZn is here and I am here for you!

GET YOUR TEA HERE

My favs are Ginger Fasting Tea, Sun Goddess Matcha, Sencha (for an earth green), Hibiscus herbal and jasmine green.

When I crave a sweet treat I add 2-3 packets stevia.

Its a vibe and a lifestyle.

Happy sipping my hot sistas (and dudes too.)

Water Tok...But Make It Healthy

Hi loves,

So I wrote a whole story on IG about how, sadly, Sucralose disrupts the gut microbiome and causes our “metabolism” to drastically slow down and actually can kill off our good gut microbes that contribute to glowing skin and our microbes that support our mental health.

When I learned that I quit ALL Sucralose cold turkey.

This meant getting rid of all Sucralose containing products and you would be SURPRISED how many things in your house touted as “healthy” contain this harmful ingredient.

I am still recovering from being annoyed by the fact many “health” companies choose to use this cheap, garbage ingredient that isn’t necessary.

Anyway,

Immediately I began looking for a solu-lu to our issue.

What’s a girl with a sweet tooth (from a disrupted biome) to do when the craving hits?

Then it came to me.

Let’s make it healthy with benefits and taste like a treat.

In comes my obsession with Pique Tea which you can now buy from my affiliate link to help support the channel & blog HERE.

Why not have endless health benefits while sipping on something that tastes good and GOOD FOR YOU?! Genius.

This got me thinking about other options too.

I remember being fascinated by the boom of “water Tok” which is basically women and their Stanleys putting combos of syrups into water to create water that tastes good so naturally you drink more.

Pretty genius except the brands most people are using contain Sucralose.

I looked over the internet to find other options and will link my favorite stevia options below.

My Stoney Clover Is filled with green teas and stevia options

This is the mixed pack options I love for on the go sweetener to flavor water when I am really craving something sweet.

AMAZON linked HERE

I find just 1-2 squirts in sparkling water when out with friends or at a restaurant also help me to not feel the need to order a drink.

If you have watched my Youtube video on my gut health journey you’ll know I gave up liquor a month ago and do NOT plan on going back to it.

The green tea and Pique teas in general help me to not give in to sugar cravings or drinking when out.

I feel I have finally found beneficial, beautifying options that are ENJOYABLE.

I hope this helps you guys on your journey!

Home Energy Based On Numerology!

Have you done this before?

I remember the first time I had a client adding their numbers up to find their ideal home

Since then I became fascinated with all things Feng Shui and good energy flow in homes

To find your numerology for your home (or any home) add up each digit in your home address then keep adding the digits till you get a single digit.

Example: 1153= 1+1+5+3= 10

10= 1+0=1

.

The home number would be 1

How To Sell Fast In Orlando

There’s a few things to prepare before listing your home for sale.

These things are critical to a quick & smooth sale.

The first is going through a thorough CMA with an agent who understands the market and the trends of the specific area you’re selling in.

This will show what’s selling, at what price and why.

Knowing this information gives you a clear picture of what your home will be worth on the market.

After going over all the data in the CMA next you’ll go over all the expenses that come with selling a home for a clear net sheet.

You want to know how much you’ll be making on the sale of your home esp if you’re needing to buy another property.

Next up is beyond amazing marketing. High quality marketing and a highly networked agent can sell homes quickly and effectively when priced correctly.

Just putting pretty pictures online is not going to sell the home.

In my area open houses sell homes. Typically open houses create multiple offer situations as people fall in love with your home and hear other people talking about offers it creates a frenzy.

Open houses are always a great way to showcase a home and drive interest and excitement.

Once we get a buyer from here we begin contracts, negotiations, inspections and making it through appraisal and financing.

I’m seeing more and more expired listings hit the market that could have sold with the right steps above.

As always I’m here to help.

Lake Nona Wave Hotel

The doors swooshed open to a vibrant ambiance with people sipping beautiful cocktails in a SLS style, ultra-trendy lounge.

Live music came from the corner of the room as people walked through to the bar.

Lake Nona definitely needs more and more of this I thought as I sat on a couch decorated in pillows and opened the drink menu.

A place to meet with people after work,

Host events,

Get away for a mid day lunch.

It’s perfect.

It’s definitely instragram-able at every angle.

It’s Lake Nonas new hot-spot and I’m sure there is more of this to come as development unfolds in our Lake Nona Town Center.

With the opening of the Lake Nona Performance Center the area has gotten so much more active and development on other projects is coming along soon to make Town Center even more attractive, drawing in lots of outside buyers.

Lake Nona is called “the Future of Cities” by Fortune Magazine and is ranking as one of the fastest and best selling communities in America according to the Tavistock Development Companies website.

The future for Lake Nona is hotter than a Florida day in August.

The innovation and technology driven, almost futuristic area is highly sought after for many reasons.

I personally cannot wait to see what’s next.

The Truth Is…

You’re either the tenant or the landlord 🏡

It’s all your decision ♥️

There will always be fear about why you shouldn’t do something, why you should wait etc.

if you examine where this fear is coming from it’s from a place of inability to stand in your power enough to get creative and get what you want.

Because the truth is,

People who know what they want and are ready to make moves—make moves despite what’s going on in the outside world because:

A) They find the right team of people to help them make the decision in the best way to benefit them.

What this looks like is getting creative with the loans, rate buy downs, finding off market properties, getting an amazing deal on the pricing of homes, basically where there’s a will& with the right team of lenders, title and agent you can make it happen in a way that is beneficial to you.

B) They don’t do what the majority of people do (buy into fear and indecision) so they make decisions purely out of what’s best for their individual needs.

Investing in real estate is one of the best ways to build wealth, period.

When you’re ready, you’re ready.

There will always be people who claim it’s a bad time to buy or sell but I’m pretty sure they aren’t the ones working everyday in the industry.

The best day to invest in yourself is always now.

The best time to buy is always when you’re financially & mentally ready to do so.

Your team is ready for you when you are

The hotel opened early this past January and has been Lake Nona’s newest hot spot for weddings, events and travelers looking to explore all that Lake Nona has to offer.

I got the charred octopus 🐙

A vibey cocktail that had blue spirilina.

I would DEFINITELY recommend Haven and Bacan for a dining experience that is above and beyond.

Bon appetit!

Why I Bought In A Not Ideal Market...

“The Ideal Time To Buy Is When You’re Ready. ”

— Celia Cavalli

I’m going to tell you guys a story that I think is important I share.

Given the current state of the real estate market I think transparency and Realtors talking real senarios is refreshing.

I’m always here to provide truth, integrity and inspiration for what you can do and achieve and I stand by that with everything in my being, always.

I bought a home at the HEIGHT of the market (meaning the most expensive time homes were selling.) that I didn’t even need

The crazy part is it hasn’t closed yet.

It’s being built still.

Which means…

My rate hasn’t been set yet.

Rates on second homes are sky high and continuing to rise with the next fed meeting on November 2cd.

I still haven’t rate locked yet.

And you know what?

I’m not scared of the outcome for this.

Why?

A few reasons.

Any home purchased is an investment and we will be using it as an income producing asset. It’s the first of many, which to us is EXCITING.

Any loss in income for an LLC is a write off.

We plan to elevate our rental experience which will yield more than the average Air BNB or VRBO so there’s possibility to be extremely profitable despite the higher monthly mortgage payments.

We plan to refinance and roll the closing cost of doing so into the life of the loan creating a smaller monthly payment & less interest over time.

Regardless of interest this is our first investment property which means we took the initiative and began building a wealth generating business regardless of the circumstances.

Where there’s a will there’s always creative ways to achieve your goals and I truly live and stand by this.

So cheers to my new home

Cheers to you following your dreams despite the fear out there spewing from youtube& the news.

I choose to live in a world I create, one that’s not dictated by the bad news (that inevitably never goes away.)

Choose and trust your timing.

I believe in my clients to make strong, informed decisions and I also believe my clients are empowered enough to choose to buy whenever the hell they feel like it, despite whatever tragic news title is flashing.

When it’s your time to buy trust that you’ll also have supported, creative ways to make it

Interest Rates Are Rising On homes...& Why You Should Still Buy

Financial literacy is one of the best ways you can set up yourself for success.

Why is it… it’s so easy to buy something you want (but don’t need and won’t enhance your life financially.) on a credit card that has a 18.99% APR…

Some people buy cars (that depreciate THE VERY SECOND you drive off the lot.) at a 16% APR…

Yet the very thing that will bring you long term wealth,

That will shelter you and your family,

That will build value year to year,

Is hard to purchase when the rate is 6%?

Let me tell you why.

Because instant gratification feels good, in the moment.

People will chase it and do crazy things for it.

And thinking long term takes ability to zoom out and look at the big picture & be in alignment with what’s best for us but not instantly exciting/ gratifying isn’t easy.

It doesn’t come with the instant price tag of validation many people seek.

I look back at all my financial mistakes and realize that if I had known back then that credit cards are to be used only for things to build wealth & fund business projects…that buying the car that’s aligned with the wealth I’ve generated…

& to invest in things that would return profit& growth I would have been less stressed in my 20s.

I wouldn’t have had to work multiple jobs trying to always be ahead of the game.

I wish I knew then what I know now.

But, I had to live that era to speak about it from a first hand place.

This is what I love about my career.

I can work with my clients by consulting with them and collaborating with them to achieve their goals when it comes to real estate

My career is so much more than opening a door.

It’s helping people think bigger.

Dream bigger.

And achieve more.

DEAR ORLANDO FOODIES...

Dinner at Illume at JW Marriott, Orlando, FL.

Hi friends, Celia here.

I don’t know a single soul who doesn’t love a good meal with BREATHTAKING views.

What’s even better is when the food is just as worthy as the “golden hour” moment lighting and the presentation is next level which is what we found at this fun spot in Orlando called Illume, located at the JW Marriott.

If you’re a contemporary asian food lover this is a fantastic choice for a date night, girls night out or just a post work happy hour.

We arrived early for our reservation so we went to the expansive bar (that had sparkling whiskey on tap!) got drinks and headed out to the balcony to sit and enjoy the views…and snap a few photos for the gram.

We had a fantastic dinner and I enjoyed that they had many allergy friendly recommendations and accommodations as I have Celiac disease and have to be mindful of the menu when I go to eat they were very reassuring and we had absolutely no issues whatsoever.

Have you been to Illume?
