It's Like You're My Mirror
I turned 35 last week and I've been flooded by love, genuine connection, unforgettable New York experiences, and those ever present mirrors creating a road map for my next stages of growth and expansion. I'm over the moon to have the privilege of not only seeing this age, when so many have not…

Funny Girl
For YEARS I've wanted to try stand up, but perfectionism has been holding me back. I finally faced my fear! Listen to me throw some pasta at the wall and see what sticks.

Perfectionism is Embarrassing
Apparently perfectionism is just ego....so I'm getting out of my own way! Also, is chronic dissatisfaction a thing???

I'm Having A God Moment
One example of a God moment is when you're about to write someone off, but you push past the discomfort, get vulnerable, set your ego aside, and then magic happens! This is one of those kinds of stories. I'm sorry I say like so much...I'm really gonna work on that!

Portal Hopping
Welcome to Season 2 of Little Deaths! After a little hiatus, I'm back, and I'm fired up. During my recent trip to NYC, I feel like I stepped through a portal. In this episode I'm talking about how I did it and what it felt like. And I'm calling in so much more! Let's just leap through portal…

Masturbation Appreciation
Do-ga-do you-ga-do ma-ga-da-stur-ga-dur-ba-ga-date? Is that like pig latin for do you masturbate? For some reason I have a very clear memory of boys in middle school repeating this phrase to which the girls all responded NO!!!!!!! We were horrified at the accusation. And then we all went home and...

New Years Is Fake
How can it be a new year when it's still the dead of winter? I don't know about you, but I'm still hibernating. I'm patiently (and sometimes not so patiently) waiting for the path to become clear. And that's okay.

The Enough Question
I've been asking myself...am I worthy of love when my skin is doing crazy things? Can I let myself be seen when my appearance is completely out of my control? Can I show up fully even when my presentation to the world isn't what I want it to be? In theory, yes. But the practice has proven to be a...

One Night Only
On this Portland evening I learned two things: sensual body rolls and random sex with a stranger was not going to heal the pain of being rejected. And no one, and I mean NO ONE, can botch a one night stand in the most dramatic of fashions, the way that I can :) *ALSO- for all of you consistent...

Purity
I don't know anyone whose parents really nailed the birds and the bees conversation. And we all know that public schools failed us. But this concept of purity certainly did a number on me. I think I might need a couple of episodes to unravel this :)

Safety Net Part 2
The parts of me that he activated never BELONGED to him. I didn't NEED him. I just didn't know it yet.

Safety Net
Looking back on all of this ten years later, it’s really not the possibility of crossing the line that bothers me the most. It’s the fact that his love was conditional.

The Great Remembering
Sometimes a mega meltdown is the best gift you could possibly ask for.
