In GIA’s history, very few polished diamonds of gem quality have surpassed the 100-carat mark. Already part of an elite group due to its size, the highly transparent nature of this diamond adds to its rarity. This pure diamond is classified as type IIa which scientifically means it is lacking measurable levels of impurities like nitrogen, thus giving this diamond its pure white color.

This diamond was fashioned into a classic old world cushion cut, with its smaller table and open culet. Its faceting bears resemblance to other world-renowned diamonds, such as the 45.52 carat Blue Hope Diamond and the 105 carat Koh-I-Nur.

FROM THE EDITOR

Celebrate!

CAPEHART

Most families have holiday traditions. In our family, we embrace a curious mix of American and Greek Christmas rituals, some traditional and others uniquely ours. For example, we have our 12-year-old twins make something every year; it could be an ornament, a dish for Christmas Eve dinner, or a holiday-inspired work of art. Our cookie baking always includes kourabiethes and melomakarona, in addition to gingerbread men. And we have two gift-giving occasions (our kids are particularly fond of this one): Christmas morning, per our adopted homeland, and on New Year’s Eve, when Saint Basil (the Greek version of Santa Claus) visits. Our cover subjects, Cara and Jared McClure with their five adorable girls, have many traditions of their own. As one of six siblings in Palm Beach’s wellknown Coniglio family, Cara understands the powerful bonds of family, especially during the holidays. It’s heartwarming to see the Coniglio daughters pass down the Christmas traditions to their own children, so a new generation can play in the “snow,” open jammies on Christmas morning, and watch sweet Hallmark movies with a mug of cocoa in hand. Turn to “A Very Coniglio Christmas” on page 100 for the full story. One thing we do every year is open our home to extended family for a big holiday dinner. I love every aspect of entertaining, from putting together a thoughtful menu to creating a beautiful mise en scène. If you enjoy hosting as much as I do, I urge you to peruse “Set the Table” on page 108. We asked three interior designers to put a creative spin on holiday tabletop decor, and they pulled out all the stops. From Angela Reynolds’ dramatic winter scene, to Jackie Armour’s offbeat Hanukkah celebration inside the pool, to Sara McCann’s very Palm Beach Christmas, inspiration abounds. This month we also present a special fashion editorial featuring Miami Heat player Tyler Herro. Tyler models the new men’s collection from Louis Vuitton with the style and swagger only a 21-year-old superstar could pull off. See for yourself in “Super Herro” on page 120. Wishing you a peaceful holiday with family and friends!

SPOTLIGHT

BLAST Off

Rocket, the latest installation by artist Hubert Phipps and his largest sculpture to date, stands more than 30 feet tall as the new centerpiece of the Boca Raton Innovation Campus, a tech landmark where the IBM Personal Computer was invented in 1981. A public art initiative by the Boca Raton Museum of Art, the sculpture was cut and welded from stainless-steel plates. Limited-edition maquettes are available for purchase at TW Fine Art in Palm Beach. Rocket has manifold significance to Phipps, who has been flying airplanes and helicopters for nearly 50 years. “I am inspired by the achievements man has made in overcoming the challenges of traveling into space and to

the moon,” he says, pointing out that Florida has been center stage in rocket development and space travel thanks to NASA in Cape Canaveral and, closer to home, Pratt & Whitney’s West Palm Beach facility. His own connection to Palm Beach County traces back to 1969 when, as a child, he moved in with his uncle, Michael Phipps. He lived locally until he returned to his home state of Virginia in 2006. “This is like home to me in many ways,” says Phipps, who stays connected by visiting and exhibiting art in Palm Beach. “I remember hearing the sounds when we were at my uncle’s ranch near Indiantown when Pratt & Whitney were testing the rocket engines,” he recalls. “Rocket speaks to science, technology, and boundless optimism. It’s a symbol of exploration, courage, and adventure.” (hubertphipps.com)

REWRITTEN Natasha Bedingfield’s 2004 hit “Unwritten” went viral this summer thanks in part to Rony Michel, an online sensation and dance instructor at Digital Vibez, a West Palm Beach nonprofit that exists to empower youth in underserved communities through dance fitness technology, and the arts. Known as “Rony Boyy” to his more than one million followers on TikTok, Michel rediscovered the song through the app, where it was making the rounds in the form of a remix called “Like Yop” by Esco featuring Shawn P. “When I heard the song, I was like, ‘Oh snap, this is that song that my mom used to play back in the day!’ She was a big fan of Natasha,” he recalls. “I remember hearing the words and then with the beat that was added to it, it gave it more hype.” He created choreography to the song and filmed it flas mob–style. His dance blew up, garnering more than 42 million views. “I started getting so many texts from friends saying, ‘Your song is blowing

up on TikTok,’” says Bedingfield. When Michel reached out and offered to teach her the moves in person, she accepted. Michel and crew flew to California, beginning an ongoing collaboration with the singer, who invited them to dance in the music video for her recent song “Lighthearted.” She also virtually attended Digital Vibez’s Jamathon at the South Florida Fairgrounds this summer. “It’s an incredible artistic collaboration,” Bedingfield shares. “When I started talking to Rony on the phone and he told me what his day job is, one of his passions is really in line with one of my visions in life, which is to inspire youth and to find ways to help them have a healthy outlet, get kids moving, and to fight childhood obesity. It’s been so inspiring to me and awakened a lot of the dreams that I had before I started releasing songs.” (digitalvibez.org)

West Palm Beach resident Jill Elisofon began designing necklaces for museum shops 15 years ago, and she’s at it again with one-of-a-kind wearables tied to the Frida Kahlo exhibition on view at the Norton Museum of Art through February 6. The designs are inspired by Kahlo’s own jewelry and style, as well as predominant colors in her work and clothing. “I created a few based on Frida’s necklaces in the exhibit and others are my interpretation of pieces she would wear,” says Elisofon.

During Elisofon’s teenage years, gifts of exotic beads from her father— Life photographer and documentary filmmaker Eliot Elisofon, who collected them while photographing indigenous groups—launched her lifelong penchant for necklaces indebted to tribal cultures. Her Frida-inspired works include pieces from this treasured stash, such as West African amber, a carved shell pendant from a New Guinean tribal headdress, Tibetan prayer beads made of yak bone, Mexican milagros, coral, turquoise, and more. Her work is also sold locally at Jennifer Garrigues, the Cultural Council for Palm Beach County, and trunk shows. (jillelisofon. com; norton.org)

A Little Wyld has opened in the Pineapple Grove neighborhood in Delray Beach.

A Little WILD

Combine the creative minds of two Delray Beach mothers, entrepreneurs, and style influencers—designer Amanda Perna and singer-songwriter Skye Dyer—and you get A Little Wyld, a new children’s and lifestyle boutique in the energetic Pineapple Grove neighborhood. Opened in September, the store carries contemporary children’s apparel and accessories, luxury housewares, gifts, and women’s apparel and features Perna’s own fashion labels, House of Perna and Neon Bohemians, among other brands. The founders put an emphasis on ethically made, sustainable products and female-created brands from around the world. Another highlight? A balloon bar for the kids. (alittlewyld.com)

POLITENESS As the world continues to weather the pandemic, knowing how to act in polite company doesn’t come as naturally. PBI tapped philanthropist and regular gala attendee Jean Shafiroff for her take on this season’s rules of etiquette. PBI: During a time when personal contact may make people especially uncomfortable, what is the best way to greet others? Shafiroff I am a big fan of the “elbow greet.” It is the new way of shaking hands, and most people prefer it since it doesn’t bring up the awkwardness of going in for a hug or other forms of physical touch that not everyone is okay with anymore due to the pandemic. Which topics of conversation should be avoided? A polite guest should not ask about someone’s 52

vaccination status. The few times I feel there is an exception to this rule is if someone is getting too close, putting you at risk, or if the topic is already being discussed. I still try to avoid this conversation as it’s personal and I do not feel comfortable bringing it up if not necessary. However, in some places, this is not much of an issue because you need to show proof of vaccination when entering public areas and events. What’s the best way to extract yourself from someone who is invading your personal space? I feel like there are two things you can do in these situations: You can gracefully move away, or you can be honest and politely let them know that you do not want to offend them, but COVID is still out there, and you’d prefer they maintain some type of social distance or keep their mask on. Asking these types of things is the new normal.

CELEBRATING A SESQUICENTENNIAL

INSIDER Findlay Galleries recently marked 150 years of fine art. The Palm Beach location was founded in 1960 with Wally Findlay’s purchase of the halfblock from Worth Avenue to South County Road. With rare exhibitions of Renoirs, Pissarros, and Monets, the gallery was an immediate success; by 1961, it had opened in the location it remains today. “Palm Beachers understand beauty and are savvy about value,” says James Borynack, the galleries’ chairman and CEO. “That has been the case since Wally started visiting Palm Beach in 1947.” Over the past 60 years in Palm Beach, the gallery has built a generational clientele and launched many important exhibitions. Findlay Galleries helped develop the careers of influential artists such as Jean Dufy, Bernard Buffet, Lê Pho, Vu Cao Đàm, and Zvonimir Mihanovic and fostered the growth of the Rouen, Normandy, and Paris schools of art. Behind the gallery’s incredible staying power lies integrity and consistency, keeping a close eye on emerging artists and investing in their stable of contemporary artists. As he reflects on the artistic tastes of his clientele, Borynack concedes that the way Palm Beachers are collecting has evolved. “Before, people found a period, artist, or school and collected in-depth surveys of that single theme,” he explains. “Today, we find that people like rooms in their homes to represent another part of their personalities, which implies freedom of expression.” (findlaygalleries.com) Findlay Gallery, 1870, Kansas City, Missouri

HALLMARK STAR ERIN KRAKOW CREDITS HER TRAINING AT THE ALEXANDER W. DREYFOOS SCHOOL OF THE ARTS FOR KICKSTARTING HER ACTING CAREER By Linda Marx

Originally from Wellington, actress Erin Krakow is a fixture on the Hallmark Channel, starring in the hit television series When Calls the Heart and numerous holiday films.

©MELISSA COULIER

Erin Krakow has a soft spot for challenging period pieces. She loves scripts that travel through time, offering feel-good moments that bring happiness to the characters. This is one reason why her starring role as Elizabeth Thornton in Hallmark Channel’s When Calls the Heart is perfect for the Wellington-bred actress. The Hallmark original series presents a powerful story of love, hardship, and family values that blends romance, adventure, and drama against the backdrop of a 1910 coal mining town called Hope Valley. Its ninth season will begin airing in early 2022. “We will have more romance and steamy scenes in season nine,” says Krakow, who lives in Los Angeles and visits her family in Wellington several times a year. “My role as Elizabeth keeps me challenged as she delves into fresh adventures.” Krakow grew up watching Saturday Night Live and competing with her younger brother for attention. She always wanted to be an actor and remembers taking breaks from classes at the Alexander W. Dreyfoos School of the Arts in West Palm Beach to visit nearby CityPlace (now Rosemary Square). She credits much of her success to wonderful teachers. “Dreyfoos set me on the path for professional acting,” she explains. “It was a great foundation with a wonderful staff. I learned dance steps, Shakespeare, costume design, lighting, and [how to] build sets. I loved every minute of it.” She earned a BFA from The Juilliard School in New York City, where she appeared in productions such as Twelfth Night, A Midsummer Night’s Dream, and Black Russian. She later performed on stage as

Cecily in The Importance of Being Earnest and Shelby in Steel Magnolias. “I love and cherish theater, which I want to do more of, but I made the transition to TV, which has a different set of challenges and requires another skill set,” says Krakow. And while she’s appeared on other networks—including in Lifetime’s Army Wives, CBS’ The Guiding Light, and ABC’s Castle—she has found her bliss with Hallmark. “Hallmark is the longest professional relationship I have had and feels like home with a supportive family,” she says. “The feelgood TV and heartwarming stories are like eating my favorite ice cream and cake.” As a Hallmark fixture, Krakow’s starred in a few holiday films: A Cookie Cutter

Christmas; Sense, Sensibility, and Snowmen; Finding Father Christmas; Engaging Father Christmas; and Marrying Father Christmas, to name a few. “Hallmark knows how to harness the holiday spirit,” she notes. “We bring warmth and magic to life. People feel good when these movies are aired, and it extends the holiday mood.” When she is not filming, Krakow likes to bake, read, salsa dance, and photograph magical moments that inspire her. “I am not sporty, but I like to hike and enjoy the scenery,” says Krakow, who remembers going to the beach and having picnics at Okeeheelee Park as a young girl. “I love visiting my family in Wellington; [it] feels like I am on a tropical vacation.” «

INSIDER PROFILE

MEASURE FOR MEASURE When it comes to classical music, Maestro Gerard Schwarz has seen, done, and won it all. Now the nine-time Emmy winner has his sights set (and his baton fixed) on leading the Palm Beach Symphony into its fiftieth anniversary. By Kristen Desmond LeFevre

aestro Gerard Schwarz hears things other people don’t. Sitting in on a rehearsal of the Frost Symphony Orchestra at the University of Miami—where Schwarz is the distinguished professor of music for conducting and orchestral studies—you don’t notice anything amiss with the Stravinsky piece, Song of the Nightingale, that his students are playing. To your untrained ear, the group sounds good (even great, considering they’re a bunch of college kids in yoga pants, tank tops, flip-flops and backward ballcaps). But halfway through a passage, Schwarz raises a palm in silence to stop the music. He cajoles, scolds, or encourages with a look; he blurts out “bum bum bums” and “da da das” of cadence and melody; he offers a word or two of direction on pacing. (“Don’t rush it,” he chides the oboists with a furrowed brow. “Play softly in this moment,” he tells the violinists. “It’s all about the moments.”) When they try the piece again—modifying their play to match Schwarz’s directions—you suddenly hear it, too. It’s better this time through. You can’t say why for sure. But Schwarz can. And that’s why he’s the maestro. It was the academic job at Miami that brought Schwarz to South Florida in 2019 from his last major post as music director of the Seattle Symphony Orchestra. For David McClymont, CEO of the Palm Beach Symphony (PBS), the move was kismet—and an opportunity he was not about to squander. McClymont snapped Schwarz up, hiring him as PBS’ music director that same year. “From the musicians to the CEO to the board of directors, everyone involved with the Palm Beach Symphony really wants to do something of significance. That was key for

“

THE PALM BEACH SYMPHONY IS CHARTING A COURSE TO THIS MILESTONE ANNIVERSARY THAT I THINK WILL BE A VERY POSITIVE EXPANSION OF WHAT WE ALREADY DO. I’M NOT SURE WHAT IT’S GOING TO BE YET, BUT I KNOW IT’S GOING TO BE GREAT.”

me,” Schwarz says. “They want to service the community educationally—and they do it as well as (or better than) any other orchestra I’ve ever seen. They really want to be an important artistic institution in this area. Everything they want matches what I want. It’s just a natural fit. Now approaching his third year on the Palm Beach podium, Schwarz is looking forward to PBS’ fiftieth anniversary season in 2024—and he’s got big ideas for the celebration. “Maybe we do premieres of five newly commissioned pieces. Maybe we expand the season to include things like an annual performance of Beethoven’s Ninth Symphony or Handel’s Messiah,” he says. “The Palm Beach Symphony is charting a course to this milestone anniversary that I think will be a very positive expansion of what we already do. I’m not sure what it’s going to be yet, but I know it’s going to be great.” Not bad for a group that started in 1974, mostly performing in private homes throughout Palm Beach County. For Schwarz, it all started with a trumpet. “As a young boy, I saw the film Aida with my parents, and I heard those herald trumpets in the last act. I was 7 years

old, and I just wanted to play like that, to produce that kind of sound. I told my mother and she said, ‘My son is going to be a whistle blower? Playing the trumpet? Forget it!’” he recalls. “She called me a whistle blower until I got accepted into the trumpet section of the New York Philharmonic.” It seems Schwarz’s mother had envisioned her son on the podium from early on. She later revealed that when she was pregnant with him, she had recurring dreams that he would become a conductor one day. That day is now. Whether it’s the Frost Symphony Orchestra or the Palm Beach Symphony, as you watch Schwarz lead his musicians, you get the sense that his hands—with their modest movements and their frenzied flourishes—are the very source of the wave of sound that spills out from the stage and into the audience. “Most people think that the conductor moves his or her hands and does magic,” he says. “But the reality is this: all of that is driven by what I hear. I have to hear it first, and then I have to be able to direct my players to make it better. I have to help them make the magic happen, if possible.” “And,” he adds, “it’s almost always possible.” «

INSIDER HEROES

Sweet RIDE

Bikes are a way for “Jack the Bike Man” Hairston to get lives (and smiles) rolling again By Sam Kerrigan Do you remember your first bicycle? That’s the question Jack Hairston asks just about every person he meets—and he says the answer is usually a resounding yes! “I don’t think they remember their first toothbrush or first pair of shoes or first peanut butter sandwich,” Hairston says. “But they remember their first bicycle.” Better known as “Jack the Bike Man,” Hairston has been a pillar in the West Palm Beach community for more than 20 years. His nonprofit gives away bikes to kids in need— and the holidays are his busiest time of the year. “We give away over 2,000 bikes at our Christmas party every year,” he says of his operation’s annual collection drive and repair efforts that could give Santa’s workshop a run for its money.

Hairston partners with other local charities to identify families that can benefit most from a new set of wheels. On the day of the party, hundreds of volunteers descend on the bike shop to help make sure each kid rides off on a bike tailored to him or her. “A bunch of elves are down in the loading dock area, and they’re adjusting seats and whatever needs to be done so the bike is perfect for the child,” Hairston explains. Hairston says it all started one day in 1999 when he was sitting on his front porch, watching a young man falling off his bike. He realized the kid’s brakes weren’t working. “I knew how to do that, and so I fixed his brakes and told him to get out of here,” he recalls.

But there was no pumping the brakes on what would happen from that day forward. Word travels fast—especially among the kids in Hairston’s neighborhood, who continued to show up on his porch asking him to fix their bikes “It was an accident,” he admits. “I didn’t plan on this happening—I was retired and enjoying doing nothing.” But he says he wouldn’t change a thing. These days, he enjoys educating kids on bicycle safety through his charity’s various programs. In just a few months, Jack the Bike Man will move into a bigger workshop and programming space, thanks to a lead gift of $1.5 million from the Mary Alice Fortin Foundation. Until then, Hairston says his organization will continue helping those who need it most—one bicycle at a time. “I’ve never seen anything as powerful as a kid’s smile when they get their first bicycle,” he says. And at 80 years old, it’s those smiles that keep Hairston’s wheels turning. (jackthebikeman.org) «

MOOD

Insight into how diet can HELP TO RELIEVE stress, anxiety, and depression By Ivey Leidy Photography by Kent Anderson

hether it be pressure in our personal lives or at the office, most of us experience some level of stress. What we may not be aware of is how chronic stress can affect our health. The endocrine system is a complex network of hormone-producing glands and organs that send messages and commands throughout our bodies to carry out vital functions. One of these glands, the adrenal gland, produces the hormone cortisol, which helps to regulate blood sugar, blood

PRACTICES TO REDUCE CORTISOL AND STRESS EXERCISE: As little as 20 minutes a day has been proven to lower cortisol levels and increase endorphins, the body’s mood elevators. MEDITATION: This practice imbues a sense of calm that can last throughout the day. GET OUTSIDE: A good dose of vitamin D helps to balance gut bacteria, thereby boosting mood. B VITAMINS: B vitamin deficiencies, especially B6 and B12, have been linked to depression. DIET: An anti-inflammatory diet rich in whole, unprocessed fruits, vegetables, grains, healthy fats, and protein helps to balance hormones and the gut.

pressure, inflammation, and metabolism. Cortisol is also known as the stress hormone because it plays an important role in protecting us from danger. When you encounter a threat—a bear charging you in the woods, for example—your adrenal glands release a surge of adrenaline and cortisol, boosting energy and helping you to flee. Once this danger has passed, the hormones stabilize, blood pressure returns to normal, and the day goes on. But when you are constantly stressed, the body has a hard time deciphering between stimuli. Are you running from a bear or just involved in a heated debate? When stressors are omnipresent, the adrenal glands keep producing cortisol as if an attack is imminent, putting you in chronic fight-or-flight mode leading to various health problems. Signs of high cortisol levels include anxiety, depression, sleep issues, high blood pressure, and sudden weight gain, especially in the abdomen and face. It can also lead to digestive problems, as cortisol curbs digestion in order to conserve the energy needed to fight off danger (that darn bear, again). As humans, we tend to gravitate toward sweets to lift our mood, but refined carbohydrates and simple sugars only make things worse. Refine sugars and processed foods cause a temporary dopamine spike that is followed by a subsequent crash, resulting in a chemical imbalance in the brain. A diet high in refined sugars also increases inflammation throughout your body and gut, which can lead to mood disorders, anxiety, and even depression. Artificial sugars can also cause imbalances in gut bacteria and interfere with serotonin production. And inflammatory oils (such as corn, soybean, and canola) can create inflammation in the gut. Thankfully, there is an array of foods that can elevate your mood when incorporated into a healthy diet. Read on to learn more.

RED ALERT Loubiworld Miniature seven-piece fragrance set ($300), Christian Louboutin, saks.com Life is too short to commit to just one fragrance. A better plan is to go on a fragrance “journey” with shoe maestro Christian Louboutin. The designer’s Loubiworld Miniature unisex fragrances span the spectrum from seductive (Loubicroc) to whimsical (Loubidoo). The seven scents are presented in a box that recalls Louboutin’s signature red soles. —Daphne Nikolopoulos, editor in chief

FEEL THE HEAT Hotel Lobby Miami Candle ($54), Hotel Lobby Candle, hotel lobbycandle.com Gift a sensory experience with Lindsay Silberman’s luxury line of soy candles inspired by fragrances from the world’s finest hotels. This oh-soMiami scent features bright top notes of bergamot, white petals, and green citrus, with rich base notes of cedar, patchouli, and exotic amber. —Melissa Puppo, contributing editor

TALKING SCENTS Prosecco reed diffuser ($68), Antica Farmacista, anticafarmacista.com Nothing sets a festive mood like fragrance, and Antica Farmacista’s reed diffuser in Prosecco is my go-to for gifting. Notes of Satsuma citrus balance with subtle florals and fruits to create a crisp scent that has a sparkling effervescence all its own. —K.D.L.

ON THE CASE Airpods case ($1,100), Gucci, gucci.com Misplacing those pesky pods is a thing of the past when you gift your forgetful friend or family member with this chic case created to keep your AirPods or AirPods Pro safe. —Kristen Desmond LeFevre, senior editor HOP TO IT Bunny Bottle ($45), Hunt Slonem Hop Up Shop, hopup.shop This season, I love Hunt Slonem’s Bunny Bottle in silver (also available in gold) with the iconic bunny in black.

Rwanda’s Rebirth

Majestic mountain gorillas, new ultra-luxe safari lodges, and a triumphant return of the Big Five—Rwanda is trending as Africa’s latest safari hot spot By Paul Rubio

y heart pounds and my legs shake as I scramble up a muddy, 65-degree slope in the thick of Rwanda’s Volcanoes National Park. It’s been an arduous three-hour ascent through mist-shrouded forest, blanketed in stinging nettles and prickly thistle plants, but the reward is near. I am just minutes away from consummating a wildlife lover’s ultimate dream: face time with the critically endangered mountain gorilla. The excitement is palpable. I’m glued to my guide, Jolie, as something scurries through near-impenetrable thickets above. Our tracker machetes a narrow path forward and six members of the Agashya family come into view. Jolie vocalizes a series of guttural groans, informing the gorilla troop that we come in peace. Within seconds, the dominant silverback—one of three silverbacks in this family of

21—decides to investigate our presence. He comes as close as inches away, literally breathing down our necks. It’s at once scary, surreal, exhilarating, beautiful, and inspiring. I’ve never felt more alive. Soon enough, the silverback returns to the other gorillas, and we officially commence our single precious hour observing the family, a time limit set by the Rwandan government to minimize human-gorilla interactions. In that hour, I forge a lifetime of memories, enamored by young blackbacks wrestling and tumbling down the slopes, elders foraging for food, and an inquisitive newborn sneaking a glimpse of the commotion from his mother’s clutch. I watch my greatest Planet Earth fantasies unfold in real time—and this live show doesn’t disappoint. The following day brings a search for the Amahoro family, another of Rwanda’s 20 known gorilla troops, through the jungled thicket of northern Rwanda’s volcanoes. The physical journey to reach them is less difficult than the previous one, but the emotional journey is equally poignant. As recently as a few years ago, such epic gorilla experiences were the extent of Rwanda’s safari footprint. But so much has changed in so little time. In the last decade, the “Land of a Thousand Hills” has risen above a rocky past to become the African continent’s biggest success story in terms of safety, economic growth, and as an exemplar of wildlife tourism and conservation. Case in point: I’m on a two-week custom Rwanda safari with outfitter Micato Safaris (micato.com), often named the world’s top safari company. My national itinerary includes not only gorilla trekking but also chimpanzee trekking, a Big Five safari, and luxuriating in some of the newest—and best—lodges on the entire African safari circuit. Prior to arriving in Volcanoes National Park, I had basked in the glory of Rwanda’s secret, enchanted forest: Nyungwe. Following my mandatory one-day quarantine in the capital city of Kigali, Micato arranged a helicopter transfer to western Rwanda and a stay at the One&Only Nyungwe House (oneandonly resorts.com), a stunning 22-room

of the national park, strewn with 21 freestanding lodges and suites. Each unit is a masterpiece in transitional indoor-outdoor design, framed in elaborate woodwork and adorned in modernist furnishings and patterned soft goods that define African chic. Winding pathways lead to a boutique spa, multiple restaurants, and experiential venues, including the past residence of famed wildlife expert Jack Hanna and a boma used for dance performances. On the opposite end of the national park, the eightsuite Singita Kwitonda Lodge also wows as a series of minimalist, jewel box–like sanctuaries, hewn from volcanic rock, river stone, handmade ceramic tiles, and oven-red clay bricks made by surrounding communities. Suites and common areas maximize volcano views through wide glass expanses and exude romance in the mist thanks to private heated plunge pools, outdoor fir places, and cozy nooks (don’t miss sampling a few glasses of South African reds in the wine cellar). Singita’s vegetable garden yields pristine ingredients that the lodge’s chefs theatrically prepare in an interactive kitchen. While

property set within a working tea plantation at the edge of Nyungwe National Park. Here, the search for smaller primates headlines the daily agenda thanks to an impressive 13 species, including Earth’s largest troop of Angolan black-and-white colobus monkeys (more than 500 strong), thriving populations of L’Hoest’s monkeys, and two families of chimpanzees. There’s also exceptional birdwatching, with more than 300 species represented, including 28 endemics like the red-collared mountain-babbler and the breathtaking Rwenzori turaco. More than action-packed wildlife spotting, One&Only Nyungwe House promises an exotic African escape steeped in wellness, culture, and style. The infinity pool, spa, and dining areas are positioned such that the sights and sounds of towering forests and undulating tea hedges continuously feed the soul. Stilted, tree-top guest rooms and suites house outdoor salas, idyllic for pairing jungle immersion with morning coffee and evening wine. Interiors reflect Rwandan charm, underscored by grand displays of agaseke (traditional Rwandese basket work) and imigongo (a geometric art form exclusive to Rwanda). From Nyungwe, I venture north to Volcanoes National Park alongside my personal Micato driver and safari director—such personnel plus a private 4x4 are standard on a Custom Micato Safari—and begin an extended stay in prime gorilla real estate, splitting my time between One&Only Gorilla’s Nest (oneandonlyresorts.com) and Singita Kwitonda Lodge (singita.com). Gorilla’s Nest is arguably One&Only’s most luxurious (and priciest) property to date, a 35-acre garden oasis near the foothills

gorilla trekking initially anchored my stays at both properties, each merits classification as a restorative nature retreat, not just a posh base for bucket-list wildlife outings. Riding high from epic primate trekking and unparalleled pampering, I round out my Micato Rwanda journey by heading east to Akagera National Park, near the border with Tanzania. Much of the 433-square-mile park was destroyed during and after the civil war in the 1990s, but by 2010 the Rwanda Development Board and the African Parks Network were rehabilitating the land and restoring Central Africa’s largest protected wetland to its former splendor. With the 2017 reintroduction of the black rhino, Akagera officially regained Big Five status. Nowadays, it’s entirely possible to enjoy a quintessential East Africa safari and witness the fruits of conservation in action at Magashi, a haute tented camp by Wilderness Safaris (wilderness-safaris. com). Given the mix of savannah, montane, and wetland habits, expect excursions by both 4X4 and boat, in search of water-loving species

such as hippos, crocs, and fish eagles along with savannah superstars like elephants, lions, and leopards, which have adapted to a diet of catfish from Lake Rwanyakazinga as a main source of protein. Notwithstanding the country’s new identity, mountain gorillas—and our intrinsic desire to observe them—will continue to anchor safaris in

Rwanda. This up-close wildlife encounter truly merits labels like “life changing” and “once in a lifetime.” However, new itineraries by the likes of Micato Safaris, primate walking safaris in the west, and classic savannah experiences in the east—complemented by a boom in ultra-luxury lodging—collectively showcase Rwanda’s rebirth into today’s ultimate safari destination. «

ESCAPE TRAVEL JOURNAL

Scenes from SCANDINAVIA

If you’ve ever visited Johan’s Joe in West Palm Beach, it should come as no surprise that owner Matti Klintberg was born and raised in Stockholm, Sweden, and lived there for more than 30 years before moving to America. Though they are residents of Palm Beach Gardens, he and his wife and business partner, Laura Olsson, also have a house in Danderyd, a suburb of Stockholm, and visit several times a year, as Klintberg owns businesses and commercial real estate in Stockholm and has family there. “I like the history and the old style—the city is over 700 years old,” he shares. “Everything is green, and people are always out and about walking, even in the snow.” Stockholm comprises numerous islands, and Klintberg says the best part “is being able to jump on a boat or ferry and be immediately within the archipelago.” With more than 50 museums and one to two coffee shops on every block, there’s a lot to see and do in Stockholm. —Skye Sherman VIBE High-pulse, environmentally friendly, beautiful

HIGH ROAD

AIR FORCE Capable of gliding up to 520 miles on a single charge, the 2022 Lucid Air is a true game changer By Howard Walker I’ve gazed at the future of four-wheeled luxury, and it’s got a plug attached. Right around now, Lucid Motors out in Casa Grande, Arizona, is ramping up production of its groundbreaking all-electric Lucid Air fourdoor luxury sedan. You might have seen the headlines. The flagship Air Dream Performance Edition will deliver a staggering 1,100 horsepower. That’s enough to catapult it from standstill to 60 mph in an eyewatering, heart-palpitating 2.5 seconds. That’s not just supercar fast, it’s hypercar fast. Yet, take the long and winding road to grandma’s house and the battery will give a real-world, EPA-approved, best-in-the-industry range of 520 miles. That’s LA to San Fran on a sin-

gle charge. Range anxiety? What range anxiety? While this highfalutin halo model stickers at $170,500—the initial run of 520 sold out faster than tickets to an Ariana Grande concert—there are plenty more affordable, less acceleratively unnerving versions to choose from. Take, for example, last year’s starter Lucid, the Air Pure, which boasts 480 horses, a still-impressive 406mile range, and a price tag of $78,900. That’s a nontrivial $12 grand less than the equivalent Tesla Model S, or more than $23,000 less than the brand-new electric Mercedes EQS, which has a range of 350 miles—almost 60 less than the Lucid. This is all in addition to Lucid’s staggering ability to fast charge. Plug it in and you can add up to 300 miles of battery in 20 minutes. In a se-

rious rush to pick up the kids? Just 60 seconds of 350-volt, fast-charger juice can deliver 20 miles of range. What this carmaker has produced with its Lucid Air is the luxury sedan of the future. See it in the metal or, in my case, on the floor at the Lucid Studio showroom in West Palm Beach, and you can’t help but be impressed. Size-wise, the Air is almost a perfect match

with its ace rivals, the Tesla Model S and Porsche’s dynamic Taycan. Yes, that bar-of-Doveshaped body could have been a little edgier or more visually dramatic. But gaze at it in profile and savor that low, arching roofline, the pinched waist, and those muscular haunches over the wheels. The contrasting roof frame color makes all the difference. It comes with some impressive design features too. The stunning glass roof is more like

a canopy on a fighter jet, with the windshield flowing seamlessly to a rollover beam behind the driver’s head. Then it’s glass all the way back to the rear deck. While there’s no built-in sunshade or Mercedesstyle electrochromic darkening, I’m told the glass has a special coating to reduce heat and soften sunlight—pretty essential here in the Sunshine State.

The choice of interior materials is first-class, with lots of open-pore wood, glove-soft napa leather, satin metal, and even a linen-like fabric made out of recycled plastic bottles. No, it doesn’t have the mile-wide glass screens you get in Mercedes’ new EQS. But the 34-inch 5K display curves beautifully in front of the driver and has crystal-clear graphics. This roomy sedan comes with stretchout space in the back and the option of rear seats that individually recline. It’s practical too, with that high-lifting, low-load-height trunk lid revealing a two-level area with more than 26 cubic feet of room for luggage. And don’t forget there’s 9.9 cubic feet in the front trunk as well. Lucid plans to build fewer than 600 cars this year, stepping up to 20,000 in 2022. That being said, I’m expecting the Lucid brand won’t really take off until it rolls out its highly anticipated Gravity electric SUV, which is due to arrive in the second half of 2023. Tesla should be scared. Very scared. «

Exploring the OUTBACK

Outback Yachts’ new Outback 50 blends trawler style with cruiser performance—and it comes with a wonderful back deck By Howard Walker Andrew Cilla knows boats. For 40 or so years he headed up Fort Lauderdale–based top yacht brokerage Luke Brown Yachts. And full disclosure here, I came this close to buying a 55-foot Fleming trawler he had listed back in 2011. So, when Cilla decided the time had come to sail off into the sunset, he knew exactly what he wanted in the boat of his dreams. It would need to be in the 50-to-60-foot range. It had to be fast, but not too fast, with a 20-knot top speed. It should have trawler-style lines and be comfortable, economical, and easy to maintain. And it needed to have great outdoor space, with a big back deck for lounging. With the help of acclaimed Sarasota marine architect Michael Peters and John Olson, president of West Coast–based Offshore Yachts, Cilla 92

designed and built his dream yacht, named it the Outback 50, and launched the first example— for himself—at the end of 2019. What did he do once he’d obtained the keys? He cleared his desk at Luke Brown, packed a bag, threw the lines from his slip at the Ocean Reef Club in Key Largo, and set off on a sixmonth “escape” cruise, all the way up to Northeast Harbor in Maine. Since Cilla’s cruise north, the highly respected Kha Shing Shipyard in Taiwan has built another three Outbacks, each with a base price of around $1,380,000. But what’s with that Outback name? It comes from the yacht’s 16-foot-long shaded rear deck and Cilla’s passion for heading “out back” to the deck for a little R&R. And this is arguably the

PALM BEACH ILLUSTRATED

000_HIGHSEAS_1221.indd 92

yacht’s best feature in what is a multitude of best features. It offers space for a large dining table, a couple of Jet Skis, a small flotilla of kayaks, or a collection of loungers for just kicking back and taking in the view. Cilla’s other key requirement was that the rear deck be open at the stern. While there’s a folding stainless rail across the back for safety, it can be removed to open the cockpit up to the swim platform and the water. Fold back the huge glass doors between the cockpit and saloon, and the largely uninterrupted space flows from the helm station all the way to the stern. Below decks there’s a comfy master cabin in the bow and a twin-bed guest cabin, though only one head and shower, so it will work well for a cruising couple with a kid or two. Up in the salon there’s a nicely equipped galley alongside the helm station, which has its own sliding side door for access to the decks. A small sofa and a mirror-varnished fold-out table are ideal for indoor dining, while a levitating

TV takes care of movie nights. The interior of the boat is pretty narrow—the yacht’s overall beam is just 15 feet, 6 inches—but that’s how Cilla envisaged the 50, with a slender hull for economical performance and easy marina docking. Climb the cockpit steps up to the flybridge and, again, the space is huge. There’s room for a 10-foot inflatable boat with a crane for raising and lowering. Forward there’s a central helm, with a first-mate seat alongside and an L-shaped

sofa behind. From up here, the 360-degree visibility is outstanding. Standard power comes from a pair of fuelsipping 320-horse Volvo D4s with shaft drive, though the optional 425-hp Cummins, similar to those fitted to Cilla’s 50, are the ones to have, providing 18-to-20-knot cruising and 24 flat out. Throttle back to a lazy 8-knot trawler speed, and the 550-gallon tanks should take you more than 1,000 miles. The Outback 50 is a great looking, thoroughly well-planned, and swift trawler. For the Florida cruising lifestyle, it’s just about perfect. «

HAPPY CHAOS DEFINES A ROCKING CHRISTMAS PARTY IN THE PALM BEACH HOME OF CARA CONIGLIO MCCLURE AND JARED MCCLURE

For Cara Coniglio McClure, there is nothing better than the warmth of the Christmas spirit. Growing up in Palm Beach’s six-kid Coniglio family, Cara says that Christmas started November 1 when her late father, the restaurateur Frank Coniglio (E.R. Bradley’s), decorated the house. She recalls every square inch of the property being covered in lights of all different sizes and PALMBEACHILLUSTRATED.COM | DECEMBER 2021

colors. Wreaths were hung anywhere he could sink a nail, she says, and garlands were scattered atop all mantles, balconies, and banisters. “More is more was my dad’s idea of decorating,” she recalls. “Dad went crazy! The roof was lit up with 20 Santas, the tree in back was aglow, and he hung over-the-top decorations everywhere. Even though our whole family loves Christmas, they call me ‘the elf’ because I love it the most.” As youngsters, the Coniglio siblings would gather in their parents’ house for Christmas celebrations each year. Their mother, Gail Coniglio—the former five-term mayor of Palm Beach (and now a member of the town of

Palm Beach’s Planning and Zoning Board)— always made turkey and ham, and all of the kids pitched in. “We sang Christmas songs, danced, and enjoyed the chaos of the holiday,” says Cara. “Dad spearheaded it all, and I craved every minute.” Cara remembers that her dad’s favorite Christmas carol was “White Christmas” by the Drifters. When it played in the house, he would grab Gail while the kids squealed watching them dance together. “It is those things that I want my kids to see and experience,” she says. Born in Baltimore and raised in Palm Beach, Cara moved back to the area in 2008. She is now senior director of luxury real estate sales

for Douglas Elliman. In 2010, she met Jared McClure, a former University of Miami football player, who traded a career in finance to own and operate a local landscape design business called Plantwell. They got engaged on Christmas Eve and married three weeks later in 2012. “This gives me more reason to love Christmas and celebrate the whole month,” Cara says. For his part, Jared grew up in a winter wonderland. Raised in Camp Hill, Pennsylvania, he calls his mother a “storybook mom.” She decorated their entire home with a full Christmas Dickens village complete with snow, working lights, and other Christmas items, including lots of nutcrackers.

“My mom always took an enormous amount of time to make the holidays special and to pick out thoughtful gifts for each of us,” says Jared. “Christmas mornings, she would make monkey bread and would later host our extended family for a feast. After that we would have a football game, weather permitting. I loved the spirit of the whole holiday season, and now we bring it to our own home.” Jared and Cara have five daughters to spoil with Christmas delight: Elle, 9, Selah, 7, Lulu, 5, Noah, 3, and baby Filomena, nine months. Beginning December 1, Cara and Jared plan something daily for the children to enjoy. From making Christmas cookies to ice skating, seeing lights around town, wrapping gifts, creating a Secret Santa lottery, and watching Hallmark Christmas movies, their lives are nonstop Christmas cheer.

100_CONIGLIO_1221.indd 103

“It is complete chaos with our kids, my siblings’ kids, and the neighbor kids, but I want them to grow up knowing how important the holidays and family are,” says Cara, who encourages Jared to do most of the house decorating because he has a flair for design. “My kids are mini versions of me—they love it all! And I think Christmas is the only time of the year when people treat each other with enough warmth and energy.” On a recent holiday evening, Cara and Jared hosted some of the extended Coniglio clan for a joyous family Christmas dinner and gift opening session for the PALMBEACHILLUSTRATED.COM | DECEMBER 2021 103

girls. The front porch of the McClure home was decorated with red ribbons, reindeer, and wreaths. In the driveway was a cherry red Defender decorated with a wreath and red bow. Not only part of the family’s holiday decor, the vehicle is perfect for tooling around town during the holidays (and the children like to sit on top amid the decorations). Inside, the party’s theme was traditional Christmas done in a neutral and simple palette of green, red, and white paired with a pure Palm Beach look of rattan, raffia, eyelet, and natural textures. “I am kind of a minimalist by nature, and this is only intensified by having kids,” Cara says. “With all of their ‘noise,’ I like environments that are quiet and peaceful.” The living room exuded a cozy feel with red ribbons festooning white columns, garlands of greenery with lights, and floral dis-

plays of red roses, white peonies, garnet ranunculus paired with anemones, and fresh greenery by Boho Garden Crowns and Events. A Christmas tree decorated with homemade ornaments and old Christmas cards crafted into ornaments dominated the room. “Our tree is very real and not at all cohesive,” Cara says with a laugh. “We hang needlepoint stockings from the mantel, which keeps with Jared’s family tradition. His mom buys each of us one with a scene that matches our specific personality. When Jared looks at the winter scenes on the stockings he thinks of home.” Before her family members arrived, Cara ran around the house multitasking with the kids and taking real estate calls while Jared put his finishing touches on the holiday design. He also managed the dining table and

made sure the home’s exterior was ready. “Since the kids keep us both on our toes, we are always ready for a meltdown,” he jokes. “You get a glimpse of our ‘happy chaos.’” Guests arrived in time to watch the McClure girls open their Christmas “jammies” followed by their other gifts of gloves and socks for the snow that Cara and Jared had imported for the festivities. Cara’s sister Francesca Coniglio Finck and her husband, William Finck, attended with their two children, Siena, 3, and Frances, 2. They were excited to celebrate another Coniglio family Christmas in the beauty and warmth of the McClure home. “It is fun to put the cousins together and watch them enjoy the magic of Christmas,” says William. Or, as Francesca put it: “We love the disorganization and fun. It’s a happy and authentic holiday, like our childhood.” Gail dropped by to join the family merrymaking, noting that she has 17 grandchildren and loves watching them celebrate the family Christmas traditions. “This is delightful and joyful and so exciting for the kids,” she says. “I am happy to be here.” The Christmas table setting was a combination of beauty and nostalgia to match the overall theme of family and tradition, a special treat for the sisters and their families. Cara and Jared used green cabbageware plates that they received for a wedding gift, white glasses from Pottery Barn, a table runner from Gail, flatware in silver and bamboo, linen napkins from Hive, and placemats from the Kemble shop. The centerpiece was fresh evergreen and pomegranate with pinecones from North Carolina. Cara’s sister Gabrielle Coniglio, a private chef who prepared the meal, arrived with her fiancé Scott Fricker. She created the menu based on foods they enjoyed while growing up with their parents. “I picked a classic meal inspired by what we

loved at our home while we were kids,” says Gabrielle, who honed her culinary skills at Commander’s Palace restaurant in New Orleans and Jean-Georges on Perry St. in New York. “I remember smelling turkey being prepared for 12 hours when I woke up on Christmas morning. I have re-created that with new touches and excitement from my cooking experience.” The family members loved the meal. They feasted on 12-hour-roasted sage turkey with classic herbed stuffing and gravy, tenderloin filet with spicy chimichurri, sweet potato casserole topped with meringue, roasted brussels sprouts with pancetta and seared radishes, buttered mashed potatoes with chives, spiced carrots with a carrot top mint pesto and pomegranate seeds, cranberry sauce, and buttermilk cheddar biscuits. The evening ended with chocolate pie and coconut cake from Kitchen restaurant, and red, green, and white frosted Christmas cookies with M&Ms from Sweet Stacy’s. “Christmas is the time you get to sprinkle joy on everyone,” says Cara. “Anything magical can happen. The smells, the songs, the energy…it all brings you back to the beauty of the past. I am excited to celebrate and share the joy with our family.” «

A Chic Winter Scene

Angela Reynolds of Jupiter-based Angela Reynolds Designs set out to create a multipurpose winter tablescape. The pops of red amid black and white surrounds lend a festive feel without veering toward Christmas kitsch. “I wanted to do something a little bit more drama-ridden because this dining room has this amazing wallpaper that’s super hip and cuttingedge, and then the dining table has acrylic spires,” she shares. “It’s really about this white, clean, modern tablescape with the drama of these red roses.” The roses are from Pomp, a flower company that delivers directly from family farms in South America. “We love working with them because the type of roses they get are the best quality,” she says. “They last a really long time because there’s no middleman—they’re really cutting, picking them, boxing them, and shipping them to us.” She arranged the vibrant flowers in a polished chrome

108_TABLESCAPES_1221.indd 109

bowl to create a modern sculptural centerpiece. Aside from the roses, the Baccarat fire-red shaded candlestick is what Reynolds calls “the eye-catcher of the table.” She also glammed up the scene with silver chargers and vintage rubyred Luminarc Verrerie D’Arques glassware from the 1970s. “I like the fact that they have a very contemporary shape to them,” Reynolds adds. And for her, no gathering is complete without candles and diffusers from London-based Victoria Cator—her favorite candle company—to scent the space. “It’s like a very rich perfume, where you just are enveloped by this gorgeous candle,” she says. In the background of it all stands a Balsam Hill white LED tree. “If you were to remove the tree, it could be just a dinner party,” Reynolds explains. “I think the tree reinforces that this is a holiday tablescape, but it’s not the focal point.” (angelareynolds.com) PALMBEACHILLUSTRATED.COM | DECEMBER 2021 109

A Modern Hanukkah Celebration

Jackie Armour of JMA Interior Design in Jupiter crafted an offbeat Hanukkah celebration at a unique property with a private island in Palm Beach Gardens. “With everything that’s been going on over the last year and a half, we wanted something that was a lot more fantasy—pushing the boundaries and having some fun and not taking it too seriously,” Armour says. “So we envisioned a Hanukkah pool party.”

She took advantage of the home’s Intracoastal-front pool with a 400-square-foot sun shelf and placed the dining table directly in the water. “The family could be frolicking in the pool, just hanging out,” she explains. Since the pool has a darker finish to blend with the waterway in the background, Armour chose a light-colored table that would stand out. “The ghost chairs are great because they kind of disappear, and they’re lightweight and super practical to be outside and in the pool,” she says. On the table, Armour placed modern black and gold metal vases. She added blue feathers to one of them to bring in a traditional Hanukkah color but “opted to keep the majority of them empty, just to take on more of the sculptural feeling.” Another unique tabletop element is the miniature gazing balls. “It’s kind of fun because when you’re sitting at the table, you’re getting not only a reflection back to the house, but you’re also getting a reflection of the sky, of the water—I think the gazing balls add a really great touch,” Armour says. One of the simpler elements of the tablescape is perhaps its most heartfelt—the wooden menorah was handmade by the son of one of the designers in Armour’s office. She chose to include it to demonstrate the fun of inviting the whole family to contribute. “Everybody can be involved in the table setting; it doesn’t have to be this mysterious, hands-off experience.” The end result is edgy yet approachable, in line with Armour’s advice to “have fun and experiment.” (jmainteriordesign.com)

A Nontraditional Christmas

Sara McCann of McCann Design Group in West Palm Beach opted for a Palm Beach take on Christmas by using tropical pink and green instead of the holiday’s classic red-and-green colorscape—creating a relaxed alfresco setting for the celebration. “My team of little Christmas elves helped with this,” McCann shares. “Because we’re in South Florida and the weather—even in December—is absolutely gorgeous, we thought we’d embrace the whole outdoor feel. We thought it would be really nice to entertain outside on a gorgeous Christmas day in the sun.” McCann and her visual team played with natural textures and patterns to celebrate the Floridian outdoors, and in a nod to the Christmas holiday, erected a white Christmas tree with bromeliads inserted in among the boughs, dotting it with handblown green and white glass ornaments.

menting the natural greens interspersed through the scene are a conch-shell-pink umbrella and custom pool towels monogrammed in pink. For the tabletop itself, McCann tasked her florists at Hive to assemble bouquets consisting of bright zinnias, ranunculus, and freesia and completed the look with refined bamboo and wicker Mercedes Salazar placemats and votives, hand-blown glass vases in a muted shade of pink, and handmade splatter-glazed ceramic plates from Aerin Lauder’s line of home decor. “We embraced green and natural elements, so we went with a more casual napkin and bamboo napkin ring, tortoise silverware, and then beautiful William Yeoward martini glasses with our tropical concoction,” McCann says. The scene she sets is the very picture of a breezy Floridian Christmas. (mccanndesigngroup.com) « PALMBEACHILLUSTRATED.COM | DECEMBER 2021

AFTER BULKING UP AND PERFECTING HIS GAME IN THE OFFSEASON, THE MIAMI HEAT’S TYLER HERRO IS SHOOTING FOR A CHAMPIONSHIP RUN By Paige Bowers Photography by R I O C A M

Tyler Herro hates false narratives. And the main one that has plagued the 21-year-old Miami Heat guard since his breakout rookie season in 2019 is that he spends more time partying than he does on his game. Social media is partially to blame for that. One picture of him at a Jack Harlow concert and you’d think that all he does is spend his days seeing the rapper perform his song “Tyler Herro.” Forget the hours of practice Herro had put in prior to that concert—and now that he’s a father, the sleepless nights and diaper changes that are all part of early parenthood. Forget that he runs youth basketball camps, has given out backpacks to underprivileged schoolchildren in the Miami area, and showed up with teammates and coaches after the Surfside condominium collapse to hand out food and water to first responders. Some people just seem to fixate on him being a flashy manabout-town. Herro has grown up a lot over the past three years—and quickly too, because the NBA doesn’t care how young you are or how good you were in college. It expects you to play hard and put on a show just like the veterans do. And as Herro enters his third year of play, he’s eager to prove that his first year was no fluke. In the off-season, he gained 10 pounds of muscle and worked with one of the league’s premier trainers in hopes of helping the Heat make another playoff run. “I’m trying to prove myself,” Herro says. “It’s my third year in the NBA and I really want to show people what I can do.” At press time, Herro’s work seems to have paid off. He scored at least 24 points in four of the five preseason games in which he played, and led the league in scoring for that period with 112 points. Granted, it’s not the regular season, but it is a sign of what fans might see from Herro and the Heat.

“

WHETHER I’M STARTING OR COMING OFF THE BENCH, I WANT TO HELP THIS TEAM GET TO THE CHAMPIONSHIP.” “You can expect a very good team this year,” Herro says. “We’ll be one of the best teams in the league for sure. We have a chip on our shoulders, and we’re trying to prove ourselves. Whether I’m starting or coming off the bench, I want to help this team get to the championship.” For Herro, moments like this are something he dreamed about when he was growing up in suburban Milwaukee. As a third grader, he was focused on playing in the NBA, and stories abound about him as a scrawny little boy who never backed down from a challenge on the court. He grew (as did his legend) and eventually the number of haters determined to see him fail did too. People turned on him when, as a high school player, he opted to play for the University of Kentucky instead of going with a Wisconsin program. He got death threats. People called him a traitor and a snake. Some even threw toy snakes at him as he played. But he played on. “It’s hard for me to understand why people hate Tyler,” says Travis Riesop, his high school coach. “Maybe the way he carries himself makes him seem cocky and that rubs people the wrong way. Maybe it’s because he’s a good-looking guy and people are envious.” The hate seemed to motivate Herro to play even harder and better until he left for his lone year as a Kentucky Wildcat in Lexington, where opposing fans booed him even more. They booed him because there was no denying how good he was—and because he was good, he wound up in the NBA at age 19, playing in Miami, where the expectations are high and the temptations are plentiful for any young person with a newly flush bank account. In that first year, he soared, but in his second, he came down to earth. The fans—his own—turned on him and tweeted at him to hit the gym. Frustrated, Herro sought out super-trainer Drew Hanlen of Pure Sweat Basketball. Among other things, Hanlen worked with Herro on his

jump shot mechanics and on creating more scoring opportunities. Part of that involved tweaks to Herro’s footwork, shiftiness, and pace. So far, Hanlen says he’s seeing good results. “You hear stories about Tyler being Mr. Miami, but the truth is all summer long all he cared about was improving his craft,” Hanlen says. “He would spend hours every day watching film and would come in two hours early just to watch Brad Beal [of the Washington Wizards] work out because he is mimicking some of the things he does. That just shows you the level of humility he has and how much he craves improvement.” Mindset helps. In a preseason game against the Charlotte Hornets, Herro had an off-night, scoring just seven points. But Hanlen says he kept playing hard and finding ways to contribute to the Heat’s 104-103 win. “I don’t think people recognize how much the mental side of the game matters,” Hanlen says. “Building up his confidence was something that will allow Tyler to take a big leap forward. He really worked his ass off to become different, not just look different.” Right now, Herro’s confidence is sky high. In the preseason, he says, once again, that he’s set on being an All-Star—and that he’s determined to do what it takes to get there. “I feel like I’m in the same conversation as the young guys coming up in the league who can be All-Stars, superstars one day…,” he told Bally Sports. “I feel like my name should be in that category too. I put the work in and I’m just continuing to get better every single day.” Twitter erupted as soon as these words came out of Herro’s mouth, with people calling him everything from “drunk” to “not even in the same league” as some of the players he mentioned. But who could fault a young man who single-mindedly pursued his childhood dream, accomplished it, and continues to set the bar higher for himself? Love him or hate him, Tyler Herro keeps pushing himself and those around him. If you’re a Heat fan, you know by now that Tyler Herro talks his talk. But he can back it up. It’s what makes him one of the most exciting players in the league—and it’s a big part of what he hopes will make the Heat a serious contender for this year’s NBA championship. «

NEW & NOW

Belgium’s Best Earlier this year, Café Boulud in the Brazilian Court Hotel welcomed Dieter Samijn as its executive chef. The Belgian native previously worked for chefs Alain Ducasse, Peter Goossens, and Bart Vandaele before relocating to Bar Boulud in New York City. In his new role at Café Boulud, Samijn says he has embraced local products, allowing them to drive his specials, along with input from his team. “I talk daily to suppliers, fishermen, and growers of produce,” he notes. “Then we work it out with the chefs and cooks in the kitchen. For a special, I always

133_TASTEOPEN_1221.indd 133

like to hear from my team what ideas they have as a form of developing them as chefs.” The collaborative environment has resulted in such creative one-offs as halibut wrapped in halibut bacon, as well as menu additions like grilled octopus with avocado, yuzu kosho, and beet. House-made charcuterie has also come into focus, as well as subtle influences from Samijn’s home country including chicken served with Belgian endive. Of course, as a veteran of Boulud kitchens and a classically trained chef, Samijn has a reverence for French cuisine. “We have frequent guests who ask us to prepare certain dishes, mostly classics, either from Daniel or other classic French dishes. Classics never die.” (cafeboulud.com/palmbeach) —Mary Murray

TASTE Q&A

BACK for More Foodies, rejoice! After sitting out 2020 due to the pandemic, the Palm Beach Food & Wine Festival returns December 9-12. As in years past, the festival will include both intimate gatherings and lively events featuring notable chefs from across the country. New for 2021 is PBFWF at Rosemary Square December 12, a daylong celebration complete with cooking demos, a Battle of the Bartenders, and the Grand Chef Throwdown. Among the chef roster is Sarah Grueneberg, who will take part in a Dinner at Elisabetta’s alongside Lisabet Summa December 10 and Indulge at the Four Seasons December 11. “I am so excited to work with chef Lisabet and collaborate with her to create a menu that highlights fresh and local seafood,” says Grueneberg, who is the chef/owner of Monteverde Restaurant & Pastificio in Chicago. “From her approach to cooking, she seems like a kindred spirit. PBI recently caught up with the Top Chef season nine finalist and James Beard Award winner to discuss festival cooking, culinary inspiration, and more. (pbfoodwinefest.com) —M.M.

PBI: Do you typically create new dishes for festivals, or do you prefer to showcase some of your greatest hits? Grueneberg: We do a little bit of both when approaching a dish or menu for an event. Taking part in a festival is a great way to test a fun idea, but I do not recommend presenting a dish that you have not tested out before. Often the confines of the event dictate what’s reasonable to execute off-site. That’s what’s nice about doing a guest chef dinner at a restaurant—you know what equipment you have to work with. I love to present a dish and have people fall in love with it in a new environment. Why Italian food? Why is it such a constant in your cooking? I got bit with the Italian bug, and I can’t think of cooking anything different. I love the ingredients, traditions, simplicity of Italian cooking. I love how soulful it is, too. I cook from an emotional place, and with Italian cuisine, you can make something that touches you. It feeds more than your palate; it feeds your heart and soul. Italian food has the ability to be something special and humble at the same time. What’s an example of something you ate in your youth that you reinvented as a chef? A baked potato was a weekly dinner growing up, and we use it as inspiration for pasta filling at Monteverde for our Zlikrofi with potatoes, onion, butter, crème fraîche, goat cheese, Montasio cheese, and chives. Growing up in Texas, a baked potato with burnt ends might be the best dish on the menu at a barbecue restaurant. And I have a fun broccolistuffed potato in my new cookbook, too.

What would be your ideal last meal? My last meal would be my family’s fried seafood feast that we’d make after a day of fishing. We dredge speckled trout filets in cornmeal and fry them up alongside hush puppies and oysters. This meal means a lot because of the people I associate the meal with and the memories of learning how to fish, clean it, and cook it with my family— well before I wanted to be a chef. I learned the responsibility of catching, killing, cleaning the food I was eating. Looking back, I really grew from it and the whole circle-of-life lessons. At Monteverde, it’d be the burrata and ham. It’s simple, satisfying, and perfect.

GET FIGGY with It EL LO

A long-standing symbol of abundance and fertility, figs are often gifted, shared, and enjoyed during the holidays. Botanically, the VI Ficus carica, commonly known as the fig, isn’t a fruit at all but rather a CO SCA FRANCE syconium: a fleshy stem with enclosed flowers that bloom internally. It contains only female flowers and propagates with the help of the minuscule fig wasp, whose only task is to pollinate one of the world’s 900 species of fig plant varieties. Ancient Olympians were crowned with fig wreaths and earned figs for their athletic pr ess, while the Roman author Pliny the Elder praised the fig’s health and restorative powers. In fact, figs and their leaves are packed with nutrients, including antioxidants and fiber, as wel as B1, B2, potassium, iron, and calcium. The ancient plant also promotes healthy digestion, is associated with a lower risk of heart disease, and may help manage blood sugar. The sweet fig can be enjoyed raw or cooked and is often dried and preserved to savor all year round. With so much deep-rooted history, what better way to welcome the holidays than with a tipple celebrating the cherished fig? This low-proof twist on the classic Manhattan has equal parts rye and sherry and a delicious infusion of fig preserves. —Jules Aron Ingredients 1/4 oz. sweet vermouth 3/4 oz. Amontillado sherry 3/4 oz. rye whiskey 1/2 oz. fig preserves 2 dashes Angostura bitters Fresh fig slices

The café serves a changing menu throughout the day, starting with classic breakfast dishes such as eggs Benedict. Eggs give way to an assortment of cold and hot sandwiches at lunchtime. In the evening, there’s a full menu of specialties including chicken Kiev and beef stroganoff along with a range of stone pizzas.

Indulgent Imbibing Raise a glass to revelry with HIGH-END wines and spirits

ROBERT HOLMES

By Mark Spivak

From above: Vérité’s Knights Valley Vineyard in Sonoma County, California; Adamvs is a sought-after selection for the holidays.

The holidays seem to demand indulgence—if not now, when? Looking back on the last year, these are the bottles I would reach for without hesitation.

CHAMPAGNE: The 2018 Cristal from Louis Roederer ($290) is still widely available, and it’s a beauty. It exhibits tropical hints and flavors of lime, vanilla, tart green apple, and red fruits. This Champagne makes an aggressive statement on the palate and can easily be matched with main courses of poultry, veal, or seafood in generous sauces. (louis-roederer.com) If you’re looking for an exercise in hedonism, try the 2007 Cuvée Nicolas François ($175), the luxury cuvée from Champagne BillecartSalmon. The acidity is mouthwatering, the texture is infused with glorious whispers of wild strawberries and red raspberries, and the finish is extraordinarily long. It has been described as intense, energetic, and powerful—all terms that fit this deep and rich Champagne perfectly. (champagne-billecart.fr) CALIFORNIA CABERNET: Denise and Stephen Adams, owners of two Bordeaux estates,

are making remarkable Cabernet Sauvignon on Howell Mountain. While their flagship wine, Adamvs ($350, pronounced “adam-us”) is available in tiny quantities, Quintvs ($200) and Téres ($120) can be purchased on the open market as well as through the winery’s mailing list. These wines are complex and savory, delicious to drink and with no rough edges. California Cabernet doesn’t get much better than this. (adamvs.com) SENSUAL RUM: Ron Abuelo dates to 1908, soon after Don José Varela Blanco arrived in the newly formed Republic of Panama from Spain. At the top of the range is Centuria ($145), a family reserve matured in bourbon barrels with an average age of 30 years. The Ron Abuelo XII Años Two Oaks, Selección Especial ($75) is a blend of rums aged between eight and 40 years; sumptuous on the palate, it has an opulent texture, an intriguing balance between sweetness and spice, and a finish that seems to go on indefinitely. On the entry level, Ron Abuelo makes a 7 Year Reserva Superior ($27) and a 12 Year Gran Reserva ($41), with the latter a significant bargain for a high-quality añejo rum. (ronabuelo.com) NEW WORLD BORDEAUX BLENDS: Pierre Seillan, a sixth-generation winemaker practicing

his craft at Château Lassègue in Saint-Émilion, came to Sonoma and collaborated on Vérité with the late Jess Jackson. Each of the three wines—La Muse (93 percent Merlot), La Joie (84 percent Cabernet Sauvignon), and Le Désir (82 percent Cabernet Franc)—is stunning in itself, with great depth, pinpoint acidity, and appealing freshness. Vérité is sold through a mailing list, and after-market prices hover in the $350-$400 range. (veritewines.com)

COURTESY OF LAIL VINEYARDS

From left: Quilceda Creek’s Mach One Vineyard in Washington state; Lail Vineyards’ Georgia label from Yountville, California.

THE BEST OF WASHINGTON STATE: Alex Golitzin, a Russian émigré and the nephew of the legendary André Tchelistcheff, established Quilceda Creek in 1978. Two of their wines are available to the public: the “CVR” Red Wine ($85), a blend of Cabernet from four designated vineyards, and the benchmark Columbia Valley Cabernet Sauvignon ($200), which is drinkable now or capable of aging gracefully for decades. (quilcedacreek.com)

GEORGIA ON MY MIND: Once you get over the shock of paying $150 for a bottle of California Sauvignon Blanc, Georgia from Lail Vineyards is a memorable experience. Grown on a dry-farmed, three-acre site in Yountville, it is fermented and aged for 18 months in French oak barrels. While the pedigree is California, the style brings to mind Domaine de Chevalier Blanc. (lailvineyards.com) «

When a former ballet dancer and her husband decided to relocate full-time from New York City to Boca Raton, they enlisted the talents of Laetitia Laurent of Laure Nell Interiors, who had designed their South Florida vacation home years earlier. To modernize the feel of this home, Laurent eliminated some of the more dated elements—raising the sunken living room and flattening the cath dral ceilings—to create an expansive ranch-style home where the spaces communicate freely. “I treated the living room as one

000_HOME_1221.indd 145

big stage [that is] open to the kitchen and family room,” Laurent says. “By editing the space and removing partitions, it gave the environment gravitas and composure.” Laurent brought the outside in with large windows and sliding glass doors that allow the backyard environs to become the backdrop to daily interior living. She furthered the organic feel with washed concrete, earth tones on the walls, and even a live moss wall. For Laurent, the biggest ovationworthy element of the project, however, is its overall openness and airiness. “There is an effortless feel to the space, where everything seems easy yet intentional,” she concludes.

CLOSET COUTURE

Dreams become reality with luxe custom-created spaces Once upon a time, our closets were uninspired, utilitarian spaces we used to store our clothes. Today, they have the potential to become the stuff of Carrie Bradshaw legends. With the right accents and accoutrements, your humdrum closet can transform into a luxe destination for dressing and fashion obsessing that is guaranteed to deliver a jaw-dropping moment on the home tour you give party guests. The key to raising the cachet of your closet? Capitalize on these tips from Kara Roelandts, a design consultant with California Closets in Palm Beach Gardens. (californiaclosets.com) Tip 1: Add stylish accents. Closets revel in neutrals, but that doesn’t have to mean boring. Roelandts suggests letting the details dial up the swankiness of your closet. “Adding doors with decorative glass inserts always adds glam to a closet, along with selecting just the right hardware as if it is the jewelry to an outfit,” Roelandts says. The mere choice of the hardware material (brass versus brushed nickel versus matte black) can change the entire vibe of a closet. And using glass doors offers the additional

benefits of preventing the space from feeling too closed in and adding a level of accountability to keep your clothes organized. Tip 2: Incorporate pieces to make it a livable space. If you want your closet to function as a room, be sure to add elements of a room. Roelandts suggests a beautiful island with a glamorous countertop, a custom settee, or a bench. And while these fashionable pieces will surely add to

000_INSPIREDLIVING_1221.indd 146

10/29/21 10:05 AM

Tip 4: There can be too much of a good thing. “Clients always want to design to the ceiling,” cautions Roelandts. “While it often seems like the right thought, it is often entirely too high for most people to access and they would need an 8- to 10-foot ladder to do so. We can always make a closet feel bigger and utilize the space efficiently with standard heights.” COURTESY OF CALIFORNIA CLOSETS

the visual pop, don’t overlook their functionality. Is the settee actually comfortable and is the island the right size and height for its intended use—whether that be laying out your fashion wares, displaying personal items, or serving as the resting spot for a cocktails and canapé spread? Don’t be afraid to add artwork to available wall space. This is no longer a place you’re just passing in and out of. You want it to invite you to stay a while and enjoy. Tip 3: Lighting is paramount. Lighting is what pulls all the components of your closet symphony together. “The key to good lighting is balance,” advises Roelandts. “Having balanced room lighting along with strategically placed lighting elements will set off a design, as will a beautiful chandelier.” Illuminating the individual shelves and compartments helps showcase your wardrobe and creates an upscale look akin to what you might see when shopping in a designer fashion house.

Tip 5: You do you. Having a Pin-worthy closet is great, but if it doesn’t reflect who you are and how you would utilize it, then your customization project will fall short. This applies, in part, to creating a space with the type and variety of shelving and compartments to best house your unique wardrobe. Work with a closet design professional to formu-

late the perfect division of space to showcase your particular fashion addictions—whether they be handbags, shoes, or watches. The second component is the utilization of the space. Visualize how you would actually spend time in it. For some, it might be catching up on emails at a small desk, applying makeup at a table vanity, or lounging on a couch reading a book. If there’s one thing Roelandts has learned, it’s that “each closet has a life of its own.” Make sure your closet’s life mirrors the one you have.

ing Arts in Washington, D.C. (1971)—was hired to design the project. After construction was completed, more than 200 people attended the building’s opening in December 1962. Among the many Palm Beach residents celebrating the new building were architect John Volk, Mayor Claude Reese, and developer Byron Ramsing. The building is often described as modern, although really it is an example of New Formalism, a 1950s style largely spearheaded by Stone and other architects like Phillip Johnson and Minoru Yamasaki. Incorporating modernist design principles while evoking classical architecture, New Formalism reinterprets ornamentation, seeking to achieve monumentality through the use of proportion and scale, as well as luxe materials like travertine and marble. Stone designed 400 South Ocean with no interior corridors. He loved corridor-free buildings, as they were not found in classical architecture and he found them “satisfying from every point of view.” Similar to the embassy in New Delhi, the condo building boasts a central courtyard. Stone’s son Edward Durell Stone Jr., a Fort Lauderdale–based landscape architect, designed the atrium to be a “water garden” complete with a reflecting pool with circular islands, plants, and statuary. In 2000, the building underwent a major restoration. Hicks Stone, another of Stone’s sons (and also an architect), served as a design consultant on the project. Hicks’ work ensured that details, such as the design of the interior of the passenger elevator cabs, were preserved. Today, 400 South Ocean stands out from the other condos on Ocean Boulevard for its timeless elegance. Stone achieved his goal of monumentality, and his contribution to Palm Beach will continue to enrich the town’s built environment. The building’s protection and longevity were further secured when it was designated as a landmark in 2012. Marie Penny is the director of archives for the Preservation Foundation of Palm Beach. «

The building at 400 South Ocean Boulevard has had many firsts in its history: It was Palm Beach’s first condominium, and the town’s firs building to feature a rooftop pool. It was also architect Edward Durell Stone’s first apartment building and first project in Florida. But 400 South Ocean did not start out as a condominium. Originally, it was intended to be an apartment building with hotel-like amenities for seasonal residents. The rents would have ranged from $5,200 to $11,500 per year. However, the developers changed their business plan due to the unstable economic climate. They retained Carl D. Schlitt, a New Yorker credited with creating the first condo building in New York in 1947, who saw the potential for condos to flourish in South Florida. Once the project made the swap from apartment building to condominium, the units were priced at $47,000 to$103,000. Today, they sell for close to $2 million.

THAT’S ENTERTAINMENT!

Dinner For DOZENS Tips for organizing a meaningful, stress-free GROUP GATHERING By Steven Stolman | Photography by Rob Rich Clockwise from above: A transformed barn is an ideal venue; Prosecco pours welcome guests; takeaway market corn puddings served in the host’s own white ceramic lasagna pans.

What do you do when the guest list grows beyond the confines of your home? The answer is to think outside the box—or, as was the case for this simple but heartfelt dinner for 50, inside the barn. Indeed, sometimes the most unlikely settings can inspire the most delightful gatherings, without breaking the bank. While many shudder at the idea of hosting hoards for dinner, there are times when it’s required; think rehearsal dinners or milestone birthdays and anniversaries. But there are also folks blessed with so many friends who all know each other that entertaining everyone in one fell swoop is a total joy. In the iconic film The Wizard of Oz, the Tin Man is told: “A heart is not judged by how much you love, but by how much you are loved by others.” For those who are loved by lots, a big gathering can be a wonderful way to return all that affection. For this late-summer dinner, the venue was a soaring barn on the grounds of the Southampton History Museum, on the east end of Long Island. Little had to be done in the way of decor beyond going with the flow: rented country-casual blue gingham tablecloths and matching

Guests enjoyed Prosecco, cocktails, and a buffet of fried chicken, St. Louis–style barbecue ribs, and grilled seasonal vegetables, plus an array of mini desserts presented in lovely étagères.

napkins, plus candlelit lanterns brought from home. The florals were inexpensive pots of seasonal flower purchased that morning from a local supermarket. Any big-box building supply store with a garden center would offer the same selection. The key is to think local. If you’re doing this in South Florida, chrysanthemums would look silly, but bougainvillea, hibiscus, or orchids would be lovely, and they can go home with you afterwards. Don’t have access to a barn? Maybe it’s a tiki hut, slat house, or party tent (the most trusted inclementweather insurance policy). The menu for this dinner could not have been easier or better received. It began with pigs in blankets with mustard (a surefire crowdpleaser), followed by a buffet of crispy fried chicken, St. Louis–style barbecue ribs, hearty corn pudding, and grilled seasonal vegetables. In lieu of a caterer, I ordered takeaway from a market in advance. The chicken and ribs came in foil containers for easy reheating and transferral into my serving pieces. A few days before the dinner, I brought my own white ceramic lasagna pans to the market for the corn puddings. The desserts came from a much-loved local bakery famous for its lemon squares, raspberry crumble bars, and blondies, all cut into bitesize pieces and served on tiered étagères procured from the same party rental company that provided the tables, chairs, linens, dinnerware, flatware, and glassware. If rentals are budget busters, there are plenty of stylish disposables on the market—chic plastic stemless wine glasses and bamboo plates and flatware are all available online. However, I draw the line at paper dinner napkins. Buy a bunch of inexpensive cloth ones instead. You’ll use them again. The key to pulling this whole shebang off can be summed up in one word: staffing. I was fortunate enough to have been made aware of a crackerjack team of local guys and gals who handled the setup, tended

152_ENTERTAINMENT_1221.indd 153

the bar, warmed and plated the food in an adjacent kitchen, circulated throughout the evening pouring wine and clearing glasses and plates, and, best of all, cleaned the whole thing up, returning the venue in better shape than before. If there’s one aspect of entertaining where one should never skimp, it’s staffing. The last thing a host wants is to be left with an unwieldy mess after the last guest has departed, or worse, having to fill in as an extra bartender or busboy. It’s a lot more meaningful to mingle with your guests in a relaxed, gracious manner. Since most of us haven’t gathered in groups for what feels like an eternity, now that things are (hopefully) looking up, don’t be shy. Hosting a big shindig doesn’t have to be expensive or backbreaking. Just keep it simple, serve generous amounts of food and drink that you love, have lots of help, and enjoy the experience. « PALMBEACHILLUSTRATED.COM | DECEMBER 2021

NUTRITION

STAR Power While its unique geometric shape makes it the perfect garnish for a stylish cocktail, the star fruit (or carambola) deserves a starring role in your diet thanks to its nutrition prowess and refreshing taste. A single medium-sized star fruit has only 28 calories and 6 grams of carbs and is rich in vitamin C and fiber. The fruit, which can be consumed skin and all, delivers a sweet taste with a tart undertone that some liken to a mélange of apple, pear, grape, and citrus-family fruits. While the species of tree is native to tropical Southeast Asia, it turns out there is a source for star fruit right in our own backyard. West Palm Beach–based Worthy Family Farms is a 38-year-old grove of 1,100 star fruit trees that the family acquired in 2015. Using organic and regenerative farm practices has earned Worthy USDA Organic Certification and they even have an active apiary on-site for pollination purposes. While they currently function as a wholesale pack and ship, 2022 promises to be an exciting year for Worthy Family Farms as they transition into being open to the public. They also have plans for a coldpressed juicery, winery, and distillery. (worthy familyfarms.com)

SOJOURNS Need a momentary escape from your life or an opportunity to hit the “reset” button? With Get Fit Retreats in Boca Raton, Monica McMahon has combined a passion for travel and adventure with a gift for creating unforgettable experiences to offer custom retreats for anyone who is striving to feel better or become more balanced in body, mind, and soul. McMahon shares with PBI what goes into planning her personalized retreats and some of her most epic memories. (getfitretreats.com) PBI: How do you create a custom retreat? McMahon: The location and retreat participants coupled with the intention/theme are all pieces of the puzzle that make each retreat so unique. We have a standard component with a sliding scale of how much spiritual [or] physical [activity], rituals, ceremonies, journaling we incorporate. There is a unique theme, an overarching intention, and a knowledge that things will change. Where can these take place? Anywhere! We have a few favorite spaces. One is a beautiful penthouse located in Punta Mita, Mexico. Other locations are the Dominican Republic and Costa Rica as well as Santa Fe for a spa and meditation retreat. It’s always nice to go somewhere exotic, but we can create a retreat experience literally almost anywhere. We can even transform someone’s home into a retreat space. What are a few of your favorite activity options to include? Each retreat includes an element of yoga, breath work, meditation, most

likely a dance party, and an adventure element. The adventure element is the experience that boosts the adrenaline, challenges our “shadow self,” and provides the gateway to making the retreat a bit more soulful. What are the most unique custom retreats you have created? Vermont and Iceland. In Vermont we experienced yoga with horses. It included poses (asanas) on horses and running [6 inches] beside a Clydesdale. The experience was about earning a partnership of trust by coexisting in the same space as the majestic beast. Talk about having to be present in the moment. In Iceland, we weaved the elements and corresponding crystals into our yoga, adventures, and meditations. We soaked in the hot springs, crawled into caves, and practiced yoga on craters where the silence was deafening. We danced under the northern lights and even experienced a hurricane. What’s the purpose of a retreat? Our retreats are an investment in self. More than ever, I believe people need to take time to discover who they really are, beyond their roles in society. I believe everyone deserves to retreat… to celebrate and engage in a transformational experience so that they can shine, rise, live authentically, and come together as community so we can all evolve spiritually. What led you to create GetFit Retreats? Simply put, my dharma. Once yoga entered my life, my desire to serve others strengthened and evolved into the concept of curating custom retreats.

MORE THAN SKIN DEEP p Briah Duncan and her husband, Adly, started Delray Beach–based Selphf as a way to merge self-care and self-love into a harmonious skin care company. They had relatives suffering from skin issues, but also shared a background as mental health therapists and understood the importance of affirmation that goes along with beauty. What evolved is a modern twist on everyday skin care. The company’s line of artistically poured soaps boasts vibrant colors and contains essential oil blends to address everything from acne and eczema to depression and anxiety. A

handwritten letter of affirmation is included in each online order to give members of the “Selphf Care Tribe” a mantra they can adapt into their daily routine. “We’ve received reviews from some of our Selphf Care Tribe stating our products remind them of their childhood, others say we’ve improved their teenager’s self-esteem, and we have even been told that we saved a marriage,” says Briah. “Truly, the Selphf Care Tribe is our driving force each day, and it is for them that we continue to better Selphf.” (bodycareforself.com)

WHY DID YOU CHOOSE TO EXPAND YOUR PRACTICE TO THE PALM BEACH AREA?

Many of the patients I treat in Manhattan and the Hamptons spend their winters in Florida. I am often asked, “When will you have an office in Florida?” The demand has become overwhelming, so my staff and I have worked out a schedule to allow me to see patients in both New York and Florida.

WHAT IS YOUR SPECIALTY?

I specialize in cosmetic and laser surgery, including facial and body rejuvenation. I am well known for my Liquid Facelift technique, which uses injectables such as Botox and Dysport, wrinkle fillers, and Kybella to restore lost facial volume and reestablish youthful contours, unlike surgical facelifts which may leave you looking taut and stretched.

WHY CHOOSE ALEXANDER J. COVEY, MD, OVER OTHER PHYSICIANS IN THE AREA?

I personally perform all injectable treatments to help you look refreshed and more beautiful. I am dedicated to helping my patients look and feel their best at any age without surgery and use a uniquely tailored treatment plan to provide natural results that leave you feeling confident and younger-looking. You will look like yourself, only better.

EXPERIENCE CUTTING-EDGE FITNESS EQUIPMENT, TECHNIQUES, AND EXPERTISE AT THE SCIENCE GYM

Think it’s impossible to do a full-body workout in under 30 minutes? Proponents of bio-hacking fitness, offered at Boca Raton’s The Science Gym, are striving to shatter that preconception. Using the most recent exercise technology backed by science, which was once reserved for professional athletes and the ultra-wealthy, The Science Gym offers its members revolutionary equipment that allows them to work out smarter—not harder. Their ARX machines, for example, use adaptive resistance technology and feature motors instead of weights. The equipment adapts to the user while they exercise and allows them to take advantage of both the concentric and eccentric movements of a workout in a safe environment. Say you can chest press 300 pounds on one rep but only 275 on the next—the machine allows you to do that in the same set without the risk of dropping the weight. “Our clients are surprised by how effective the workouts are,” says The Science Gym’s Matt Allison. “Because you’re able to get the maximum possible load at all times during a workout with us, it’s very common to feel like you just did 10-15 minutes on a muscle group when in reality you’ve only done one minute of exercise.” (thesciencegym.com)

Just as the right pair of shoes can make your evening outfit sizzle, the wrong pair of running shoes can make your daytime workouts fizzle. Discovering what shoes are best for your feet and your personal fitness goals requires more than trying on a pair for a quick walk around the store. Thankfully, fitness shoe experts Fleet Feet have stepped up as a matchmaker to help you find your perfect shoe. Their personalized outfitting service is available in all of their stores, including locally in Delray Beach and Stuart.

AND

After a conversation with customers about their shoe history, fitness methods, and aches and pains, the Fleet Feet Outfitter uses a Fit Id 3D foot scanner to measure the client’s feet (down to the millimeter) and determine

TIED the shoe size, width, and shape that will fit them best. Then, the customer walks across a dynamic pressure plate to assess their gait cycle and pressure points, in order to calculate the rigidity or flexibility of their arches. All of this information is used to expertly form a shoe recommendation. “The fit process helps because every person’s feet are different,” says Hannah Schwab, operating partner of the Delray location. “What is comfortable for one person, might not fit their friend or family member. Feet are also growing and changing our whole lives, so the shoe size someone wore in their 20s might not be what they should wear in their 30s or 40s. We want everyone to be as comfortable as they can be in their shoes.” (fleetfeet.com)

Understanding CONSERVATORSHIPS Recent news headlines have invigorated public discussion, but the basics of conservatorships are important for all to know By Judy Martel Pop star Britney Spears has been in the spotlight since childhood, and not always because of her music. In the past year, the media glare has been trained on a long-running feud over a court-appointed conservatorship that left Spears powerless to make decisions regarding her own finances or personal affairs. The result was a public and expensive legal battle with the conservators and guardians of her estate, among them her father, Jamie Spears. Beyond raising public consciousness about previously little-known conservatorships and guardianships, the case highlights the need for a solid legal plan to cover every eventuality and avoid the courts, says estate-planning attorney Alexander A. Bove Jr., founder of Bove & Langa in Boston and author of several books, including The Complete Book of Wills, Estates, and Trusts. “Any time you have to go to court, it can result in a legal battle,” Bove says. “A good estate plan is designed to keep people out of the courts as much as possible.” Although the terms guardianship and conservatorship are often used interchangeably, there is an important distinction, says Bove.

Both guardians and conservators are appointed by the court and are considered fiduciaries, meaning they have an obligation to act with loyalty and good faith on behalf of another and, under that duty of care, they are answerable to the court. The difference is that the guardian is responsible for the health and general welfare of the person, while the conservator manages all financial and property matters, including real estate, investment, and business transactions. The two roles can be filled by the same person or by two different individuals. Under Florida law, guardians and conservators can act on behalf of another for a specified time or even for a single transaction, such as the sale of a house. Typically, the courts appoint such people when there is no document outlining the care of minor children in the event of the death of the parents, or for the care of mentally or physically incapacitated individuals. Ending the relationship early, as Spears well knows, involves the approval of the courts. In an ideal situation, individuals would avoid court involvement and maintain control over who will act on their behalf if they are incapaci-

000_WEALTH_1221.indd 184

tated in some way, and Bove says that can be accomplished with two relatively simple documents. The first is a durable power of attorney allowing an individual control of financial matters, and the second is a health care power of attorney, or health care proxy, which names the individual who will make decisions regarding health and well-being. While a person can appoint the same individual in both documents, Bove suggests naming a financial professional for the durable power of attorney and a trusted family member or friend as the health care proxy. “These days, managing money is a big deal, and with IRAs, savings accounts, and other assets, people often have a bigger estate than they think when it’s all added up,” he says. A professional usually has a better understanding of the duties of a fiduciary and is held to a higher standard as a result, he adds. “That’s different than a family member saying, ‘I think we can make a lot of money by putting everything in Mexican vegetables.’” Beyond the two basic documents, a will or living trust is essential to outline the care of minor children; in some situations, customized trusts are also appropriate. “Even if you don’t have a sizable estate, the family’s situation might require special planning,” Bove adds. For example, a particular type of trust will provide for disabled children without shutting them off from state or federal assistance. Minor children are not able to legally inherit or speak for themselves, so planning for their welfare is crucial and easy to do in a trust or will. If

there is no trust or will, judges will generally try to name a person in or close to the family as a guardian, but ultimately an important decision is still in the hands of a stranger, says Bove. “If children are under courtappointed guardianship, who knows how they are treated?” Trusts can be very simple or complicated, depending on the situation, Bove adds. But when all is said and done, the peace of mind is worth it. “You don’t have to spend a lot to draft a trust, but if it’s properly done, it’s the best money you’ve spent.” «

Can two strong women with very different coping strategies on the journey from grief to release meet each other somewhere in the middle – out in the middle of nowhere?

A lyrical exploration of loneliness and longing, sweet dreams and bitter truths, determination, and resiliency.

Based on the life of Emily Dickinson, this one-woman show paints a vivid portrait of the beloved, enigmatic poet.
