What does it mean to truly embrace cultural diversity in hospitality? A few weeks ago, we hosted an event where friends shared their cultural stories. 🌎 It was a beautiful mix of backgrounds, traditions, and experiences that opened our eyes to the richness of diversity. 🤩 However, we noticed that not everyone felt comfortable sharing at first. We knew we had to create a welcoming space. By encouraging dialogue and sharing our own stories, the atmosphere shifted. Soon, laughter filled the room, and connections were formed. This experience reminded us that hospitality goes beyond services, it’s about creating a sense of belonging. By fostering inclusivity, we enrich not only our industry, but also the lives of everyone involved. Let’s continue to celebrate and uplift each other’s cultures! 🌈 xoxo -Alexa and Isa #CulturalDiversity #DiversityAndInclusion #GlobalConnections #CommunityBuilding #Hotel #Hospitality #CEO #Entrepeneur #LosAngeles #DigitalMarketing #MarketingStrategy #Friendship #AleBellaHospitality #AleBella

It’s not just about spaces or services—it’s about creating moments that connect people and leave lasting impressions.

Every project, every challenge, and every connection is a reminder of why I’m passionate about what I do. While the journey is ongoing, it’s these experiences that shape the path forward. Here’s to the collective effort of empowering hospitality and making a difference, one thoughtful step at a time. 🚀 #EmpoweringHospitality #BuildingConnections #CreatingImpact

🌆 A lesson from the world of hospitality for businesses of all stripes. 🌆 Merriam-Webster defines hospitality as ‘generous and friendly treatment of visitors and guests.’ This definition travels far beyond the boundaries of hotels and restaurants. Imagine the impact if your business were to embrace this ethos with all its stakeholders – employees, customers, and partners. This inclusive approach could foster increased loyalty, better teamwork, and a stronger business overall, making everyone feel valued and integral to the business. So, which elements of hospitality will you incorporate into your business today? #Hospitality #BusinessCulture #Generosity #Friendliness

Today marks a milestone in our journey at Linens N Love as Public Interest Registry captured the story of how "imperfect" hotel linens become perfect solutions for communities in need. Being selected as their .ORG In Action feature has given us a platform to showcase a critical sustainability challenge in hospitality: premium linens, discarded due to minor imperfections, silently filling our landfills while nearby communities struggle with basic necessities. Our collaboration with Courtyard by Marriott Riverside and A Sense of Home illuminates a powerful possibility by transforming these linens into essential resources for youth aging out of foster care. These sheets, towels, and pillowcases diverted from landfills become part of a fully furnished first apartment, offering dignity and comfort to young people starting their independent lives. But here's a fascinating paradox: While hotels consistently reach out to us seeking sustainable solutions (our inbox is proof!), many hesitate at the final hurdle – implementation at scale. It's not about lack of interest; it's about shifting deeply ingrained operational patterns. This reminds me of another hospitality industry transformation: in-room WiFi. Remember when it was a luxury? Today, it's unthinkable not to offer it. What changed? We did. Consumer demand transformed a "nice-to-have" into a "must-have." This is where you come in. Our upcoming film isn't just about linens – it's about the power of collective action. Every like, share, and comment signals to the hospitality industry that their guests care about sustainability beyond the "reuse your towel" sign. Every time you tag your favorite hotel group, you're voting for change with your voice and influence. The truth is, this isn't a story of corporate resistance – it's about aligning business interests with social impact. Having grown up in hospitality, I know firsthand that hotels are passionate about the guest experience. Now, we need to show them that genuine sustainability efforts enhance that experience. Together, we can reshape how the hospitality industry approaches sustainability and social impact, one linen at a time. Stay tuned for the final product! #SocialEntrepreneurship #Sustainability #Hospitality #SocialImpact #CircularEconomy #FosterCare #CommunityAction #Leadership Kendal Rowe, Lauren Micek, Vivian Wang, Carlton Sugarman, Rachel Stich, Emily Q.

How do you know when you love hospitality? When it becomes a core value. When it seeps into everything you do. That's why it was crucial to identify "hospitality" as a core value for greenluxe and for me personally.

Because true hospitality isn't just about what we do—it's about how we make people feel. #HospitalityAtHeart #SustainableHospitality #ClientCare #GreenLuxe #FoundersJourney #Values
