Weighing in on Equal Pay Day

I missed Equal Pay Day last week because it was a different important day for me to discuss, but let’s hit it up now. Top of mind all the time and all. First: Then, check it: theskimm.com’s Guide to Equal Pay. And finally:

Photo Representation | Feel Good Friday 040717

OK. So many things are encompassed by these four photos. I had an amazing opportunity to network with some really accomplished people this week, but the coolest part about it was that no one was too cool for school—every one of these highly successfully people was down to earth and willing to talk about anything.…

The Widowed Girl(space)friends Club

10 years. Today, ten years have passed since my best friend was killed, an event that quite obviously changed my life. I’ve written about it plenty here. Today doesn’t hurt like other anniversaries have, but you never stop wondering what might have been. As time passes and the closeness of many of my foundational mixed-gender…

The Wine Glass

We’re down to 4 out of 6. I just got wine glasses that I love and am obsessed with, and a friend broke one last weekend. Then I broke one today, washing it. I haven’t even owned them for a month! I was sad, but then I asked myself what the alternative was: they sit…

Feel Good Friday 031017

The happiest soul! As I gratitude-listed last week, being back in Aspen made my soul happy, mostly because of my bestie and other friends there, but also because—gasp!—the mountains have won me over, they own my soul now. Fresh air, fresh snow, blue skies a color blue only found in Colorado … it’s all a…

Happy Soul | Feel Good Friday 020317

It feels like I live in Aspen again—I’m here for my bestie’s 30th, but working remotely for a couple days too. It really is like the old days: I’m posted up at the library to work and chowing down on kale salad at Peach’s while laptopping away. I get to wander town, take ski break…

YOLO pt. 3 | Feel Good Friday 012717

YOLO Weekend was awesome, confusing, and gratifying. I also have to confess that the skiing in Big Bear was phenomenal—20″ of powder will do that—and I loved skiing with the crew I was with, on the super-fun untracked wooded bowl we found off the backside of a run. Nonetheless, I might be pulling back on…

YOLO! pt. 2 | Feel Good Friday 012017

YOLOing has been good to me. I Bumbled last Friday for a wedding date on Saturday, and he turned out to be awesome. He’s sure to star in the dancing portion of the wedding video, he signed a hilarious message in the guestbook, and he even posed for awkward prom pictures with me. Will I…
