Dinner Reflections + Big Glow-Up Energy Sitting at dinner tonight, my beautiful friend and I found ourselves deep in conversation about our childhoods. It’s always wild when you realize how many overlapping threads exist between people who were seemingly living completely separate lives. One of the biggest shared truths we uncovered? That deep, restless knowing…

I’m on a full health kick right now. No alcohol, eating clean, working out, early bedtime like a responsible adult who has her life together. And honestly? It feels really good. Except… the sleep. For the past few nights, I keep waking up. Not once. Not twice. Multiple times. Like something is tapping me on…

“The coconut milk is off.” Spoiler Alert: If you haven’t seen The White Lotus Season 3, spoilers ahead. Sometimes when something feels off to me, or something goes wrong, I will say this phrase out loud: “The coconut milk is off.” Most of the time, people just tilt their head and stare at me. But occasionally, a…

Why I Always Say “I Love You” Life has a way of reminding us (sometimes gently, sometimes not) that nothing here is guaranteed. Plans change. People come and go. Timelines we thought were solid dissolve without warning. It’s a wild, unpredictable ride, and for all the ways we try to control it, we’re never promised…

Is there anything better than a bookstore? Truly? I mean… unless it’s got a Joe Goldberg working at the counter. And let’s be so for real, I absolutely would have dated him back in the day. I mean… he reads books. Come on. Anyway. I was at Barnes & Noble the other day, just milling around as I do…

Sentimental Moments That Stick Recently I had a realization while listening to music: many of my favorite artists are men. And not just men, but men who are very in their feelings. It got me thinking about why that kind of emotional expression resonates with me so much. Part of it might come from something…

There’s a line in Sun to Me by Zach Bryan that has a way of landing softly and then staying with you: “Find someone who grows flowers in the darkest parts of you.” Up until very recently, I’ll be honest, I had no idea who Zach Bryan even was. Someone introduced me to his music over the holidays, and I found…

Under-Reacting (aka Why Your Comebacks Arrive 6–8 Business Hours Later) Have you ever left an argument feeling… fine? Calm. Mature. Regulated queen energy. And then three hours later you’re in the shower delivering a TED Talk to an invisible audience about everything you should have said? Yeah. Same. That’s not you being “bad at confrontation.”That’s your nervous…
