A No Nonsense Decade
As I circled the wagons in 2009 on New Year’s Eve, I remember thinking: I have no idea who I am, what I want, and how to get rid of this fat. My daughter had just turned one; my son two years. Only a few months before that, I had joined a gym and an […]

You are ENOUGH (Maybe)
Dr. Shefali Tsabary’s words have single-handedly changed the way I parent, the words I use and the “battles” I (no longer) fight with the young humans in my house. She says, “We need to tell our children: ‘Accept WHO you are today. All I see is your essence, and you also need to accept […]

On Four Years: Uncovering The (Stuff)
Today with five days until book launch, I celebrate FOUR YEARS of sobriety. Cheers, they say. But not really. Because no one really knows how to congratulate someone for not being an embarrassing, unhealthy, money-wasting, regret-filled, two-bottle-of-wine (at least), people-pleasing yet functioning, “inspiration,” lawyer, IRONMAN …and drunk.

Stand in Your Truth

I am super excited about this article (which will run on Sunday!)… because the journalist asked the really hard questions: What will the people in your past think of the language you use in this book? What drives you to tell the Truth about your life? How […]

“Who Cares About Your Preorders?”
I get it. The emails. The posts. “It’s so much. Who cares about these preorders of this book?” But really I wrote this BOOK FOR YOU. Remember that time you had a job interview, and you couldn’t wait for the return call? Remember when you were a kid and you were praying/hoping you received that […]

The Art of Self-Forgiveness
Published First on Medium.com For a really long time I carried the burden of self-hatred. From a young age, I was always made to feel that I was shameful — in a myriad of ways — none of which were on purpose from my family. It was a sign of the times and an oppressive church at […]
