The writing mastermind I’m a part of online has been discussing various aspects of our personal and business journeys in relation to End of Year Goals – as the final 100 days of 2018 approaches. In one of the discussions, we started talking about Joy and Doing Things that Make You Happy and a lot…
I’ve been working with my nutritionist for awhile. First, we started with my mindset, being okay with who I am right here and right now. Not putting off goals and life just because I carry extra pounds, being happy and enjoying life and food because life is meant to be enjoyed. Once we felt like I…
Get ready for some real talk. For the past few years I have been learning about and implementing Health At Every Size (HAES) and Body Positivity into my life, but for the past few months, I’ve been hating myself and my body. Generally, I feel like a failure. A big fat failure. I am fat. …
In my final installment of the Adulting is Hard series, I would like to talk about cleaning. I love planners and being organized with my time, but when it comes to cleaning and organizing my apartment well…I’m a bit of a hot mess. Don’t get me wrong, the city won’t be coming by anytime soon…

Funny story…I don’t feel like an adult half the time. I mean – I have a day job, I pay bills, I have a kid! But most days I still feel about 25 years old (which, okay, some of you might say, 25 – that’s still an adult) but when I was 25 I was…
Someone pinch me because I’m not quite sure this is really happening right now – my book, this labor of love, is available for people to actually buy on Amazon, right now! What?!?! I checked my notes and I’ve been working on this baby since 2011, that was the same year my son was…
When I write, I need music so I assume that my Main Character, Rachel – in The Art of Lying (available starting April 17th on Amazon) also needs music to create. She’s a painter and getting ready for her own solo art gallery show and is working on her final painting. She loves pop…
