Tell us about the last thing you got excited about. This is your reminder that joy doesn’t always look like the Instagram picture you had in mind. It doesn’t always come with confetti, a perfectly staged latte, or a soundtrack by Lizzo. Sometimes joy shows up like a […]
What is the most important thing to carry with you all the time? People love to play that hypothetical game of “If you could only carry one thing with you..” And usually, it’s practical stuff. Wallet. Keys. Cell phone. The classics. But here’s the thing. Wallets are becoming […]
List 30 things that make you happy. There once was a gal in high heels,Who spun joy like spokes on her wheels.She’d scream to the skies,With no compromise,Then dance till she shattered all feels. Joy is the fire I fiercely chase,In pink my forever riotous grace.Give me magic, […]
What’s your go-to comfort food? Let’s talk about pizza. Not haute cuisine. Not microfoam cappuccinos or farm-to-table kale. Just good old-fashioned, cheesy, slightly greasy, possibly folded-in-half New York-style pizza. The real universal food or as I like to call it, “the one thing that unites my household, my […]

If you won two free plane tickets, where would you go? You know those dreamy icebreaker questions people love to ask at awkward team retreats? “If you had two free tickets to anywhere, where would you go?” Most people say Paris or Hawaii. Classic. Basic. Lovely, sure. But […]
The other day, while walking to work with coffee in hand, existential dread lightly simmering, I passed a young woman passionately lip-syncing into her phone, mid-stride, with choreography that would’ve made Paula Abdul proud. Yes, a really old reference here. And there I was, a blur in the […]

What strategies do you use to increase comfort in your daily life? You haven’t truly lived in New York City until a local train you’re riding suddenly goes rogue and decides, mid-ride, to become express. No announcement. No warning. Just BAM! like Emeril seasoning your morning commute with […]
Which food, when you eat it, instantly transports you to childhood? The other day, I did something wild. At least, wild by grown-up, semi-caffeinated, city-living standards.
