Hey everyone!
Can you believe we’re already saying goodbye to June and welcoming July? It feels like this year is flying by! June kept me incredibly busy, but I’m so grateful for every opportunity, every new connection, and every adventure. Now I’m excited to see what July has in store!
🎙️ A New Journey Begins: 100 Voices. 100 Stories.
One of the biggest highlights this month is launching my newest passion project, 100 Voices. 100 Stories.
The mission is simple: to interview 100 inspiring people and share their journeys because I truly believe every person has a story… and it all begins with you.
Our very first episode featuring comedian Jordan Jackson is officially live! You can watch or listen on YouTube, Spotify, Apple Podcasts, and Google Podcasts. I can’t wait for you to experience these amazing conversations, and trust me—we’re just getting started.

One adventure I’m especially excited about is continuing my 50 States by 50 journey!
We’re getting ready for State #3, and I can’t wait to bring you more travel stories, hidden gems, local restaurants, bookstores, and unforgettable experiences along the way. Every destination has its own story, and I’m excited to share each one with you.

☀️ Summer Is Here!
Can we talk about this heat?
Some days it feels like it’s over 100 degrees outside! Make sure you’re drinking plenty of water, staying hydrated, and grabbing one of those portable fans if you’re spending time outdoors.
We’re officially halfway through the year, and time isn’t slowing down. So don’t wait for the “perfect” moment.
Take the trip.
Read the book.
Support a local business.
Start that project.
Spend time with the people you love.
Create memories.
Most importantly, enjoy the journey.
Thank you for following Cece in the City and being part of this incredible community. Whether you’ve been here since day one or you’re just discovering my corner of the internet, I truly appreciate your support.
Here’s to an amazing July filled with new adventures, new stories, and new opportunities.
See you around the city!
– Cece ❤️
