    The Mantra That Made Me Want a Future Again (opens the original)

    Excerpt · Critical tone

    Read excerpt

    I yell out into the divine universe, “I am enough! I choose peace! I surrender!” Spoiler alert: come to find out, the words are themselves are not magic. Damn.You can scream a mantra, like “I am enough!” until you are blue in the face, but if you’re entire day is spent comparing yourself to everyone else, abandoning yourself whenever you’re uncomfortable, the mantra has very little to hold on to. “I choose peace,” doesn’t mean peace just suddenly arrives. Are you choosing peaceful situations? Ar

    The Fall Edit (opens the original)

    Excerpt

    Read excerpt

    You know it’s officially fall when my kids start asking me to order their Halloween costumes (cue Mary Poppins). And while the temps in Los Angeles are still hitting the upper 80’s, I’m itching to bust out some fall layers and fall pops of plaid. Speaking of, Guest in Residence recently sent me this tartan jacket and I cannot wait to wear it. It’s always around this time of year that I start to day dream about escaping somewhere cooler.

    Excerpt

    Read excerpt

    “How do you like your coffee?” is one of the more common questions I get asked.

One month you’re an oat milk latte person. A few weeks later you take it black, and no one is calling it a crisis. You’ve just changed.So why does the rest of like feel so different? Kids leave.

    My Lazy Beauty Routine (opens the original)

    Excerpt · Positive tone

    Read excerpt

    You can imagine my extreme joy when I read that lazy beauty is officially “in.” It’s something I’ve subscribed to for years and when Geri Hirsch shared this article in her Weekly Update, I jumped for joy. As someone who genuinely doesn’t love makeup, or quite frankly brushing my hair, I finally feel seen (ha!). I grew up on a farm in Texas, where beauty wasn’t really part of the conversat

    My Divorce Ring Story (opens the original)

    Excerpt

    Read excerpt

    When Emily Ratajkowski shared her story about her divorce rings, I paid very close attention. At that time I was just under a year after my own divorce, and thanks to the way things shook out, I was sitting on two beautiful rings I’d acquired during my marriage. Not my original engagement ring or wedding band, but two pieces that were always going to be mine.But I still found myself feeling guilty about it. I sat on the choice for quite some time and mostl
