Accidentally Vegan You have to check this website out. What do I think? Oreos being vegan is a great example of how (1) labels don’t tell us very much and thus don’t really matter, and (2) calling yourself vegetarian does not mean you eat vegetables. People ask me all the time if I’m vegetarian. I’d …
Have you ever heard about learning things through osmosis? Obviously it’s a joke—and I know I’ve seen print cartoons showing people sleeping with books under their pillows to try and absorb the information passively… But I always think of this when I’m working in wellness because exposure to healthy concepts over and over (and over) …
I’m a master planner. I plan everything, and I enjoy it. Sometimes I enjoy making the plans more than I enjoy implementing them. It’s common for me to discuss (I call it brainstorming) what I think I want (today, tomorrow, for my career, my life…..where I want to live, what car I might want to …

I planted microgreen seeds last week, so I wanted to just show you the progression of what has happened. I’m pretty happy with my first attempt at the indoor garden–and I know I planted too many seeds in each crop, but I was in a rush when I planted and didn’t have enough containers and …

I’ll admit I spent …
I know, the title is confusing. CONFUSING should be the theme of my life right now. I’m so confused…but I won’t totally go there right now. I wanted to talk about focus—which is something I can be really good at sometimes (like when I want something…a Ph.D., an infrared sauna…). I suppose you could also …
Focus……too much or too little? ….or too scattered? WHAT? Read More »
Isn’t it funny how so many people have conflicting and opposite opinions about holidays? Some people love Christmas, and other people just think it’s a pain to deal with. Some people get excited about celebrating Valentine’s Day, Thanksgiving, and St. Patty’s Day…and others complain that they are just over-commercialized and forced. I never thought too …
I spent last weekend in LA. My cousin Kristen lives there, and she turned 30 last week, so I decided to fly out and go to her party. She’s an amazing woman—goal driven, and totally does not sweat the small stuff. She recently sold a 2-season pilot to AMC for which she’ll be the Producer, …
