The Glow-Up Challenge

Hi, I’m Soraya — but online, you’ll find me as Your Traveling Therapist™.

I’m a psychotherapist turned content creator who believes that glow-ups aren’t just about looking good — they’re about reclaiming your power, rewriting old beliefs, and stepping into the confident, sultry version of yourself that’s been waiting to take up space.

From midsize fashion to luxury travel, from savage mindset shifts to soft girl wisdom, I share content that inspires women to live boldly, love themselves unapologetically, and romanticize every corner of life — whether that’s a Parisian balcony, a Miami rooftop, or your own reflection in the mirror.

This blog (and my socials) are where travel meets therapy, where mindset meets main character energy, and where I remind you that you’re allowed to want more — and take it.

This week I’m inviting you on a glow-up journey. Will you join me?

It’s been about a year since I last wrote here — and in that year, I’ve lived, traveled, and transformed. Somewhere between the turquoise waters of the Caribbean and the cobblestone streets of Europe, I realized: glow-ups don’t happen in gyms or mirror selfies alone. They happen when you decide to stop shrinking, stop waiting, and start living boldly.

For me, travel has always been more than a passport stamp. It’s a mirror — showing me the parts of myself I’ve ignored, the beliefs I’ve outgrown, and the woman I’ve become. This is why I’m bringing back my blog with something new: The Glow-Up Challenge.

But this isn’t your typical “drink more water, hit the treadmill” challenge. This is a 28-day journey to:

• Identify where you lost your power and passion

• Rewrite the stories that keep you small

• Learn to walk into any room (or destination) with delusional confidence

• And reconnect with your body in a way that feels like love, not punishment

Each week, I’ll be sharing reflections, prompts, and sultry inspiration — all set against the backdrop of the places I travel. Because if I’ve learned one thing, it’s this: glow-ups feel different when you’re watching the sun set over the Mediterranean or journaling in a Paris café.

So, whether you’re here for the mindset shifts, the travel inspo, or just a little reminder that you’re capable and deserve to have it all — welcome back. Let’s make this glow-up unforgettable.
