That is, I would be grateful for it if I had it. This week has been insane, incredible, intense. Emotional to say the least. And as I turned to my yoga—where I completely lost my shit on the mat one day which I suppose is as good a place as any to lose your mind…
Grateful for this FULL, crazy life.

But also cowboy pool and Xian Noodles happy hour and Frankly strawberry lemonade vodka and…
This was my third trip to Chicago, but the first where I felt like I really got to wander and get the vibe of the city so many people love. And I get it, Chi-lovers: the city is sporty, authentic, energetic without being frenetic, outdoorsy, inventive, and just nice. We stayed in the Gold Coast…

Before you go to Costa Rica, you might be a bit cynical like me, thinking pura vida is a marketing slogan or a thing tourists pick up. But it’s not. Somehow those two words actually, adequately represent the embodiment of a country’s ethos. You can use it for hello, goodbye, ok, thank you, you’re welcome,…
This is not a feel good post. This is an angry post. This week, I came up against something that I have been fortunate enough to have avoided for 36 years: sexual assault. Let me be clear: “nothing” happened. As in, I was not assaulted. Or murdered. But I was skillfully manipulated, isolated, and put…
Not a single picture was taken at Friendsgiving, but it was a wonderful night of laughs, delicious homemade food, and loads of wine! Things I’m grateful for: Hot pool!
