Before you all think I’ve gone off the deep end, hear me out. I’m a big believer in writing letters to people who have passed, or friends we’ve lost touch with as a means of clarity and catharsis. In this case, being that we’re talking about a cat, I feel […]

I Have High Cholesterol! Now What?
First off, believe it or not, I was actually surprised by this. My Instagram is a fatty highlight reel of the foods I eat (which will now be changing, deal with it), and I tend to feature only the gluttonous stuff. So you’re probably sitting there like “lol no shit […]
Coping With 2020: Stop Beating Yourself Up
If you told me the guy from The Apprentice would be our President one day, I would have laughed. And if you told me that the WORLD would be shut down for 6+ months due to a global pandemic, I again, would have laughed. Yet, here we are. I guess […]
Things I Loved in Health (or Sleep) This Week
I think “sleep” falls under the same health/wellness category, so let’s run with that. It dawned on me recently just how many things I use at night to help me sleep. In my 20’s it started with a sleep mask, which was essential to sleeping those hangovers off well into […]

5 Essential Tips for Working From Home
It took a lot of strength to not include “watch The Office on loop” as one of my essential tips, just FYI. Seriously though, I hope everyone is doing well, staying safe, and washing their damn hands. It’s scary shit out there and I, for one, am reaching the end […]
Anxiety is a Bitch
Today was really shitty for me. And guess what? I have no concrete reason as to why. I actually stopped and thought about it, then I made a list: I had a healthy breakfastI worked outI closed a deal with a brand I likeI followed up on some outstanding payments […]
Happy 2020! What Can I Say?
No but really. I’ve been sitting here staring at this screen for a while and trying to come up with something poignant to say. I got nothin. I mean…it’s just kind of cliche to talk about resolutions, and now it’s become cliche to talk about NOT having resolutions. So what […]
