Lately, I’ve been staring at the universe the way some people stare into the fridge at midnight. I’ve been hoping something magnificent will reveal itself and explain my life choices. And honestly? The universe has been delivering. Big time. The other day I was obsessed with tryptophan from […]
Share a lesson you wish you had learned earlier in life. I didn’t really watch the Emmys this year. To be fair, I had it on. The screen was glowing, the speeches were droning, and I was half-scrolling, half-snacking, and fully not invested. But for once in a […]
Some people consult vision boards. Others call mentors. Me? I pitch my ideas to the dogs. It’s a sacred ritual. I pace the room, rambling some grand scheme or mildly delusional plan, and there they are—my panel of furry consultants. Middle dog, the unbothered philosopher, barely lifts his […]

I am an early bird. And that is a mega understatement. I don’t know what it is but ever since I was a baby I get up early and stay up. I don’t really nap and I don’t necessarily go to sleep early. I’m just an awake person. […]
The Five Second Rule Life Lesson My son dropped his Oreo cookie onto the floor and he looked mighty sad. He knew he was just supposed to have one cookie I soothed his worry way by letting him know about the five second rule. That wonderful rule […]
