Join us in a conversation with this month's TROPICÓS GIRL: Whitney Derochemont.
She’s well known for her Hawaiian lifestyle that she shares on Instagram with her husband and two baby boys, and her community which boasts 3,000 people. Her energy is true isla style with a flare of fun, and we want to let you in on our chat with Whitney:
There's multiple ways I enjoy spending my days and that's: Quality time with my husband and children. A good farmers market. Beach Days. Thrifting with no kids haha!
Who or what inspires you at the moment?
My children.
To see the world through their eyes. To witness and experience their love. They inspire me to be better, to do better, each and every day. They inspire me to think bigger, dream bigger, than I ever have before. And for them I'm forever grateful
A life changing realization you've had? I'm worthy. I'm worthy of it all.
An expert who has significantly helped you? The last few years have been extremely transformative for me. Every area of my life I've done and continue to do work on. Joe Dispenza and his work has played a major role in helping me do this. I also love listening to Lacy Phillips and her insight on Manifestation.
What's your favorite TG product?
Obsessed with the ESSENCE.
What are some skin habits you can't live without? My skin care routine. What I have to have - a cleanser, toner/essence, serum and moisturizer. Facial massage while applying skin care. It feels amazing and anything and everything to help with de-puffing. Ice roller or cold plunge.
Pm ritual? Night time is all over the place and the wheels are falling off by 7. Once everyones asleep I shut the door to the bathroom and take a moment for myself. (I think every mom can relate to this.) My PM skin care routine is really the only "ritual" that I have in place and to me it's sacred.
Fav tune? Oooh this is hard to answer! My taste in music is all over the place. I love oldies but also get down with drake, ya know? Some of my fave artists: The Fugees, Stevie Wonder, Sly & The Family Stone, The Police, Gregory Issacs
Fav drink? Non alcoholic - Kombucha / Alcoholic - Red Wine
Go-to, quick healthy meal? I try to shop local and organic whenever possible. Being in Hawaii we have amazing fish and local produce. A piece of fish and a colorful salad is my GO-TO.
Three things you always keep stocked in your fridge? Probiotic spicy fermented sriracha by Wild Brine, Macadamia nut butter and an assortment of cheese (balance)
Lastly, what is your best advice for women?
I find advice is hard to give when I don't know the person or what that person is going through, etc. Sooo, this isn't advice but more of a reminder... You are beautiful. You are seen. You are capable. You are worthy.
