I love Halloween. And I mean I love it. Ask my daughters — they’ll tell you. I love dressing up, I love trick-or-treating, and I adore binge watching scary movies. Unfortunately, I also used to love binge eating Halloween candy. During the weeks leading up to the holiday, I used to be torn between vowing… Read More

Piano Tuning
We women are so hard on ourselves. We lose our patience with our kids and call ourselves bad moms, we have a down day and say we’re depressed, we blow it on a diet and call ourselves failures. We assign ourselves all kinds of negative personality traits that, sadly, eventually become identities. But what if… Read More
Sleeping Beauty
Hi there! I’m so happy to see you well-rested, totally refreshed, and ready to take on the day! Ok, maybe you’re not. If you’re anything like I used to be, it’s more likely you didn’t sleep that great, you had to make coffee this morning that could double as rocket fuel, and you’re already dreaming… Read More
Deathbed
Happy New Year! Ok, there’s no way I’m going to start off a brand new decade with a post about how much water you need to drink or what kind of cardio you should do. I wanted to come up with something truly inspiring for the first post of the year — and honestly, I… Read More
No Man’s Land
If I asked you what you would wish for if you could have anything, I’ll bet you’d say to be thin or to lose weight or to have the perfect body. Maybe you would say all three. But in light of the fact that you’re probably knee deep in New Year’s resolutions right now in… Read More

Toxic Waste
The quality of your life is determined by the quality of your relationships. Have you ever heard that quote? I have many times — and I believe it. Its message is especially relevant around the holidays, when we attend family gatherings, go to annual holiday parties, and celebrate traditions with people we are connected… Read More
Coach Yourself
Every morning, my personal assistant drags me out of bed, pours me a cup of hot coffee, and leads me to my desk to get organized. Then my personal trainer shows up. And before I have time to protest, she’s already got me started on a 5-mile run. After that, my personal chef hands me… Read More
It’s All Good
This summer I moved into a new townhouse with my two girls, and I have the cutest new neighbor. We’d been talking for several weeks about getting together, and we finally made our plan a few months after I moved in. We went to a Mexican restaurant around the corner with our kids, and it… Read More
It’s So Easy
I’m an extreme morning person. It’s no effort whatsoever for me to get up early. I don’t have to shake myself awake, and I don’t have to hit snooze ten times before I get out of bed — in fact, I no longer even have to set an alarm. It wasn’t always like this. I… Read More
