Our generation is going to go down as the generation that killed romance. Among other things. But the death of chivalry and courtship will be our legacy. And I blame one thing: Dating Apps. Ugh. Bumble. Tinder. The League. Hinge. Coffee Meets Bagel. OKCupid. Online dating is a close to 2 billion dollar industry. As they say, there’sContinue reading The Generation that Killed Romance
TV Morality
Confession: I like watching TV commercials. Partly because I’m an actor and I do a lot of commercials, and so it’s kinda like homework to see what the commercial “trends” are. Some of these trends include: making dads and men seem like dopes or incompetent, ethnically ambiguous “heroes,” the switching of normal gender roles, andContinue reading TV Morality
Light up the Sky
New week, new city! I’m back in Ohio this week. I had a callback for a film this morning. The casting director, writers and producers flew in from LA, so fingers crossed on the project! I’m not going to front: last week, I was in a very strange head space. I found myself, almost resenting this blog. Monday’sContinue reading Light up the Sky
The Truth about Age & Eating Disorders
I need to be honest with you about something. Come clean, if you will… I joined a gym. Now I know, that may not seem like a big deal or anything, but when it comes to recovery from anorexia, the gym is one of those…treacherous areas. Since I have been fully recovered, I haven’t belongedContinue reading The Truth about Age & Eating Disorders
An Actor’s Life
Hey friends! So in case you didn’t know, I’m actually in Ohio right now! I had a commercial shoot yesterday, two auditions today, and I feel a bit like a chicken with its head cut off. And…typing that little saying out…I’ve never really considered how gruesome it really is. Yikes. Love life update: I’ve been kindContinue reading An Actor’s Life

As you know, this blog has been named the Top 3 Eating Disorder Recovery Blogs of 2017/2018. And so I’ve been approached to do a podcast about all things recovery.

The Other S-Word
I’ve gotta tell ya…sometimes I just cannot believe how socially dense we can be in 2018. I mean, for as politically correct and inclusive our carefully chosen words are…y-i-k-e-s. Let me back up. Over the weekend, I took my dad out for his birthday. We went shopping, saw a movie, and went to lunch atContinue reading The Other S-Word
Dignity
Surprise! I’m back in Ohio. I just managed to sneak out during this massive blizzard in NYC, because I had an important audition back home. You know what I did last night? Watched Notting Hill. Yes yes, the classic 90’s chick flick with Hugh Grant and Julia Roberts. I had never seen it. And itContinue reading Dignity
#RealTalk : Private Spirituality
We’re in the home stretch of Lent. Easter is less than two weeks away. And if you’re anything like me, then maybe you’ve slipped up a time or two – or twenty – on what you’ve “given up” for Lent. So these last two weeks are the final push – the home stretch where youContinue reading #RealTalk : Private Spirituality
