  • How to be the reason someone smiles today

    As the golden hues of a San Francisco sunset wrapped around my family and me, a sense of gratitude washed over us—gratitude for the city's beauty and for the unexpected kindness of strangers. In the latest episode of Holly's Highlights, I spill the details of our spring break escapade in the City by the Bay, from the enchanting pedal boating in Golden Gate Park to the echoes of history on Alcatraz Island. But it wasn't just the sights that captured our hearts; it was the people—the Uber driver who doubled as our photographer, the informative pickup driver, and the restaurant staff who treated us like royalty. Their small acts of kindness turned our trip into a treasure trove of cherished memories.

    However, it's not all sunshine and sea lions; hospitality, or the lack thereof, can cast a shadow even on the most picturesque of trips. I share a contrast with an Uber driver whose less-than-stellar service provided a stark reminder of how crucial kindness is, especially when you're far from home. And while the Easter egg dying at our hotel didn't go as planned, it's these moments of unpredictability that often lead to the most valuable insights. Tune in for a heartfelt journey through San Francisco as we discover that it's not just the places you go, but the people you meet, that forge the most enduring impressions on the heart.
