That can be hard to understand especially when those coincidences are negative like two rare cancers hitting a family in less than 6 months. But take this […]

There is nothing I don’t love about New York.  Let me be clear.  This city is incredible.  The best. The GOAT (greatest of all time). There is truly nothing like it and as someone who has been to 52 countries I feel semi equipped to say that. I ❤️ New York While very proud of […]

Found in drafts! Forgot to press publish. Dear Ruth, Thank you for your years of service.  True service.  A service that touched every woman not just in this country but around the world. Your death is a heavy loss.  You were our advocate. We knew that you had our backs. We knew that in a […]
