When I was 15, I had no idea what I wanted to do with my life. I was more worried about fitting in than about creating my own path. This is not the case for Lauren Nicole, at 15-year-old up-and-coming fashion designer who is doing AMAZING things and shows no signs of slowing down.

This SXSW I had the amazing opportunity to interview an up and coming singer/songwriter at SXSW!!
I have had the opportunity to interview many up and coming artists during SXSW and other live music events, but I am very picky about who I interview. I really want to believe in the artist and their music.
Upon learning about Raymundo and listening to his music I knew I wanted to interview him. Raymundo is a Latin pop singer/songwriter from Cali. He has made headlines in Los Angeles by overcoming obstacles and being able to open for acts like Juanes, Enrique Iglesias, Nelly Furtado and more! He is an amazing singer and I know he is going to do AMAZING things!!

I think it’s safe to say that we will be going together a lot once she moves to Austin starting in the fall.

When I first heard of Joe’s from a friend, I am not gonna lie, I was thinking, “You are full of s***!” The thing is that ever since I came to Austin I hadn’t found a place that truly, really, sincerely reminded me of the food from back home. There are AMAZING places in and around town, but most of them have one or two things on the menu that I actually love.

It’s easy to post motivational pictures on Instagram. It’s easy to be THAT GIRL behind a computer screen. I strive to make my family, friends, and other women feel empowered. I know how hard it is to be self conscious and, sometimes, getting a little push from someone can make all the difference.

Last year, my boyfriend and I decided to start having an annual posada at our place. This year it will be the last posada we have in an apartment before we move into a house. I want to make it an extra special holiday party because of this, so I decided to make mole for my first time for the party.
But, of course, I wanted to test it out first before then. I am so excited because it actually came out AMAZING!! And it is a super simple recipe that anyone could follow and make using a slow cooker.
