NO WASTED DAYS

A MANTRA, A MINDSET, A MOVEMENT

HI, I'M EVA,

THE VOICE BEHIND NWD.

Before the blog, No Wasted Days began as a personal mantra at a time when I found myself stuck in a funk—unmotivated, uninspired, and disinterested in my world.

 

At the time, I was working a corporate job at a start up in San Francisco, navigating a relationship that didn't fulfill me, and had become a person I didn't recognize—a person my friends didn't recognize either.

I told myself this was adulthood. But I knew better.

By the summer of 2023, I was desperate for a way out of the inertia. That’s when No Wasted Days began—not as a blog, not as a brand, but as a rule.

Every day, I had to do one thing just for me. Something small. Something new. Something unusual.

 

It started quietly. I wore the clothes in my closet I had been saving for “someday.” I said yes to dinner plans. I befriended the staff at my local coffee shop. I tried new restaurants, took a different route home.

The more I said yes, the more I recognized the person I used to be. And before I knew it, that small rule took me beyond my neighborhood, then beyond my city, then beyond my country, once again.

 

No Wasted Days became my north star—guiding how I traveled, how I worked, how I moved through the world. It gave me permission to choose curiosity over comfort, to stop waiting for the “right” moment, to create momentum when I felt stuck.

It brought me here.

To this blog. To writing. To sharing stories, lessons, guides, and everything in between.

In the past year, I’ve lived in Bali, moved through different corners of the world, and now—briefly—I’m in hibernation, reflecting and recharging before heading to South America for my next adventure.​
