What a blast representing @next_sf at San @sanfranciscopride , now celebrating is 54th anniversary ! 🌈 Hundreds of thousands of people descended on SF from near and far to celebrate our values of equity, diversity, and inclusion in our personal and professional communities. Thank you! San Francisco embodies a spirit of unity and pride that’s unmatched! Thank you Mayor @londonbreed and @sfprotocol for a truly special after parade party at City Hall! 💯🎉 #SFPride #NextSF #LoveIsLove

Thank you to Sai of @rejuvenatemassagesf and Akiyo of @connect_dots_sf , for providing a full-service spa and wellness experience right in the heart of @unionsquaresf ! In addition to a wide assortment of massage and wellness treatments, they have also partnered with Connect the Dots to offer a variety of services to their clients, including acupuncture. They believe that massage and bodywork should not be a luxury afforded to the few. Instead, massage and bodywork can be and should be a part of every individual’s wellness maintenance routine.

Celebrating Pride Month with our community partners at the @irelandinsf Consulate General of Ireland San Francisco! Thank you to Consul General Micheál Smith! Always wonderful to share a fun moment with our friends from the @sfprotocol : Chief of Protocol @maryammuduroglu , @meronfoster and @_liston_ ! ⭐️💯🇮🇪 AND special thanks to Isabella Tomás - Austrian Consul @openaustriasf in San Francisco for showing me the basics of the Viennese Waltz! 💃🏻🕺🏼 Fun fact: Ireland was the first country in the world to legalize same-sex marriage through a popular vote. On May 22, 2015, a referendum was held, and 62% of the voters supported the legalization of same-sex marriage. This led to the passing of the Marriage Act 2015, which came into effect on November 16, 2015. 🌈🇮🇪

Had an amazing time with the innovative owners of @perspireberkeley Sauna Studio, experiencing their new sauna studio! **What Happens Inside An Infrared Sauna** An infrared sauna uses light, including red light, to create heat. Unlike traditional saunas that heat the air, an infrared sauna heats your body directly. Their full-spectrum infrared saunas combine beneficial infrared rays with the therapeutic beauty of visible color light. By eliminating harmful UV rays, they offer a safe, restorative sweat session that left me rejuvenated. 💯⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ #InfraredSauna #Wellness #Berkeley
