My Thoughts On Turning 40 With No Kids, and More!
I am not, nor have I ever been, a “birthday person.” I don’t go crazy celebrating them, and I don’t think THAT deeply about them. UNTIL NOW. I’m just going to come right out and say it: 40 is messing with me a little. *gasp* AND I went on a […]
A Valentine’s Day Reminder
This day can mean whatever you want it to mean. For me, it’s just another day. If you search my blog, you’ll see I’ve never really been a fan. Some might even describe me as a cynic, way back when. Me?! Never. But for those of you who know me, […]

My Sephora Sale Picks!
Does anyone else feel like they could spend $500 in Sephora without blinking an eye?? I’ve walked in there many a time thinking “I just need eyeliner” and walked out with 7 things, 5 of which I didn’t “need.” Listen. I’m a sucker for cute packaging and things organized neatly. […]
Sample Chapter from My Breakup Book, Coming Soon
Yes, it’s true! I’ve been writing a breakup book/survival guide because, well, I just have a lot of experience in terrible breakups. This one takes the cake though. That blog post has resonated with so many people, I didn’t even see it coming. When I had the idea about writing […]
