I’ll tell you what, you’ve never watched a presidential debate until you’ve watched one in a bar with a bunch of Europeans on the Upper West Side of Manhattan. I promise, I’m not getting political… But let’s just say, they don’t mince words about how they really feel about Trump and Hillary. The term “Satan’sContinue reading Anorexia & the Sanctity of Human Life
Questionable Authenticity
Maybe it’s because I’m listening to some vintage John Mayer (Room for Squares — holla!), or the fact that I’ve spent the last 30 minutes wistfully looking through old pictures of my family, but here I am, back at the keyboard, taking on a subject that has been weighing on my heart all day today.Continue reading Questionable Authenticity
Taken Care Of
Another weekend, another realization… Let’s be real…my love life…is no secret on here. For better or for worse, I have been…probably too irresponsibly candid in what I’ve shared. But you know what…I regret nothing 🙂 haha Anywho…I realized something the other day. I was filming one of my “Journaling Through Recovery” videos (they’re available on Patreon)Continue reading Taken Care Of
How Did I Recover?
I’ve been sitting, staring at this blank page for about 2 hours now. Granted, I’ve taken a few breaks to peruse Buzzfeed, watch a Korean makeup video, and get ready for bed, but let’s face it. I’ve got writer’s block. Which royally stinks. So I’m going to go back to my roots here tonight. Return toContinue reading How Did I Recover?
Truth Serum
I learned something about myself this weekend. Allow me to set the stage. Saturday night. Out with friends. Well, correction…I was out with the guys. Because all my female friends decided that Netflix was more appealing than a gorgeous, open air rooftop bar in NYC. #NoJudgement…To each his own. But there maaaay have been some potential love interestsContinue reading Truth Serum
The Great Chase
I think it’s pretty evident by now, but let’s just say, I’m a sucker for a good inspirational quote. Case in point: Just check the early days of my IG profile. I made those quote art images like they were going out of style. But anywho. The kids I nanny for got their school plannersContinue reading The Great Chase
Get to Know Me – Video!
Alright y’all. Thought I’d lighten things up a bit tonight. The past couple posts have been slightly on the more serious side, so I wanted to take a breather and introduce you to…well, me! I collected some of my favorite questions y’all have emailed/DM’d and had some fun answering. Everything from my writing process to my trip toContinue reading Get to Know Me – Video!
Putting my Foot Down
Ok. It’s time I step into the confessional. My personal life has been…a struggle recently. I’ve been feeling out of control. And I’m going to be honest…it’s because I have just been mentally, emotionally, spiritually and physically exhausted. I’ve been getting home after back to back to back 12-hour days just in such a piss-poorContinue reading Putting my Foot Down
Swiping for Love
Warning. This is a post about my love life. Or rather…lack there of. You guys, I have a confession…I recently joined the dating app, Bumble. It was a moment of weakness. I was out with friends and my inhibitions were…how should I say…compromised. (Dang tequila…) But my friends made a profile for me and…whatever. It’s honestly beenContinue reading Swiping for Love
Lessons from a 93 Year Old
I had one of those experiences last night that’s going to stick with me for a long time. Sunday night. 7:30pm. And I was going to a church I had never been to. I moseyed in the back and found a seat in the second-to-last row, just off the aisle. Mass started. We were aboutContinue reading Lessons from a 93 Year Old
