The best therapy. Banging heavy weights. Snatch, deadlift, power clean. Squat, lunge, press. New job has me doing this less, and I didn’t know how much I needed it until I wasn’t doing it. And I got grouchy. REAL grouchy. Apologies to everyone who ever interacted with me over the past couple of weeks. I’m…
As the child of two therapists, I fully believe in the power of therapy and the importance of mental health. How having an awesome therapist can be a complete gamechanger for how your life goes. I mean, every celebrity ever has a therapist on speed dial, so to be a true faux celeb, you definitely…
I love life by the beach. And it looks like I’m gonna be here a little while longer, at a job I love and in a house I love! Last weekend, I was reminded of the joys of beach living with the perfect Sunday: Nali playing at dog beach before I hopped on a bike and cruised…
Dumpster rescue. The perfect skinny entryway piece, with drawers. A repository for keys, dog treats and poop bags, purses, with bins for backpacks and shopping bags underneath. I found it outside my new apartment almost a year ago, and it took me about 7 months to get around to redoing it, but boy was I…
Mammoth to Omaha. An unlikely turn of travels, from road trip to jet, but grateful for both. A ski weekend with two feet of snow (!!!), Nali playing again in the snow, my badass new work team, a deeper understanding of my new job… Awesome. Exhausted. And excited.
There are some real ups and downs this week, and I’m grateful for them all. A lot of people I love celebrate their birthdays this week—happy birthday!! I put in an offer on a property in Newport Beach, and I’m the first backup. It feels like such a bummer, but it’s okay too. There will be…
I want to be Olivia Pope, only not in Washington, just in life. It took me a few years to start watching Scandal (and I haven’t watched this season yet), but boy did I binge-watch once I did! At last night’s Oscars, Kerry Washington looked every bit the power player in her black-leather-bustier dress with a flowy…
My squad in Austin last weekend was insane, even if the trip ended in food poisoning that still has some of us down for the count (damn sensitive bellies). I don’t know how it took me so long to come up with the idea, but I’m going to post photo recaps of FGF on instagram…
UPDATE: The winner is MARA! In the interest of looking flawless like a faux celeb should, I am constantly chasing the perfect face makeup. For a clean beauty lover, mineral makeups are a go-to. In the past, though, I’ve chosen to go more traditional, using Paula’s Choice or Urban Decay because I don’t care for the texture. However,…
Um. Imma be honest about what I’m doing here. I’m backdating this Feel Good Friday. I got called out on it today: Friend: maybe do a double this friday? idk you’re the celebrity Here’s what I would have been grateful for had I actually posted on Friday and before the weekend took place: Good humor,…
