One time I was referred to a strange man I had never met for a surgery. I had a capable female doctor, but, contractually, she was not allowed to sterilize me. She worked for a hospital run by a religion I didn’t follow. Instead I was scooted across town to a different hospital system entirely,…

Breathwork: Self Care that Actually Serves
As a working mom, I know first-hand the struggles of keeping it all together. Of staying on top of the needs of my family, household, business and myself. But, I also know that my togetherness will crumble and I will break if I don’t first take care of myself. I’d like to share a secret…
If I Don’t Care Where my Boyfriend’s D!@k is, You Shouldn’t Either

I’ve read many books on the royal family, from the modern royals to the royals from centuries ago. I’ve seen many documentaries on British history in general. You could say it’s…

When It’s Right, It’s Right: Getting Back to Dating
When I signed up for Tinder and jumped feet first into the dating pool last spring, I wasn’t really hoping for much more than a rebound fling or two. The wounds from ending my 14 year relationship with my husband were still smarting. I wasn’t sure that I wanted to have actual feelings for another…
