Happy 24th anniversary to my California Girl album 🌴🍊☀️💿

This one will always hold a special place in my heart. It’s truly one of my all-time favorites.  A damn good record that was worth the wait. After all, it only took 30 years to complete!!

There is a nice recording of “Route 66” featured on the album, which makes this celebration even more fitting as it coincides with the 100th anniversary of the naming of Route 66, the ultimate symbol of freedom, adventure, and the open road.

Here’s to 24 years of an album that proved great things really do take time, and that some music only gets better with age. ✨🧡💛

Do you know this album? Do you have a favorite track?

"What helped me most when learning to free dive, shoot, or model is my breath-hold technique. For starters, before diving, I spend at least a minute at the surface, calming myself down as much as possible before going under. I focus on breathing slow, complete breaths, all the way through the diaphragm. Once I'm under it’s important to keep my mind calm. I try to focus on what I’m doing (whether shooting or modeling) and let everything else fall away. Sometimes I use the time to feel gratitude as I feel it calms me 🥹

One of the most important things to do when shooting with someone is to communicate well at the surface on what the objective is, so that you can save energy by getting the shot in one take. Be mindful of communication underwater as well, whether that be sounds or hand gestures.

If I feel the need to breathe but haven’t got the shot, I will calmly focus a bit more to see if I can get it even while having contractions, as I know I still have plenty of air and will save a lot of energy finishing the goal in one take, then surfacing and trying again. However, I never push that feeling too much. I’ve never blacked out, and I try my best to be cautious when pushing the limit. It’s important to know your limits when diving and always dive with a safety buddy."
