I love to travel, try new foods (both simple and "exotic"), ingest caffeine, and watch political news coverage. Im a big pop culture junkie who isnt afraid to say she loves "In Touch" Magazine! A social marketing expert and psychologist by training who works in the public health field trying to bring a little common sense to it all.
All the world is my television and I like to provide commentary on it.
Cheers
I’ve got this! Took me a week or more. Actually a few months. Each year, just like Merriam Webster and others alike, I chose a word of the year. Sometimes it is retrospectively applied. Other times, I pick a word for the coming year to help frame my […]
Now, while inauthenticity may have risen this past decade, there were also good things to come about. Before I dive into that let me note that one can perhaps argue that inauthenticity didn’t rise. Perhaps it was just more overt and blatant. Inauthenticity put on a show this […]

An acquaintance posted on their Facebook feed how they were taking a break from social media for the rest of the decade and that they could be reached solely via text. I immediately was amazed that this particular person would go offline for a year. Then I realized […]
I love Christmas. Unabashedly. I love this day in part because I get to see joy on the faces of others. And, that in turn warms my stomach and makes my heart beat with joy. Right now my son is playing his new harmonica nonstop. Luckily, I have […]
‘Tis the season to be jolly. I love this time of the year. Perhaps even more than my son. Perhaps. Not sure about that. I want him to experience the joy of receiving gifts small and large. I want him to experience the joy of singing Christmas songs […]
I am a little late to this particular party but I wanted to weigh in on some recent television and social media advertisements. I have had a lot going on in my life recently and I haven’t taken the time to think about one of these silly twitter […]
I am not a big Star Wars fan. The only movie in the series I really liked was Rogue One and it is stand-alone. However, I went into this latest Star Wars viewing experience with an open mind. A hopeful mind. This year has been rather ho-hum when […]
