I was thinking about breakups recently. About the breakups I've had in my thirties versus the breakups I've had in my twenties. I think the one blaring difference? Maturity. My maturity. And my choices. I dated people in my twenties that I gave my life up to. That I put on a pedestal, who left … Continue reading A Grown Up Conversation

A Man’s World
Last night I had the rare opportunity to tag along on a business dinner. It wasn't for my business... I was just a bystander. Don't get me wrong- I've entertained networking partners and clients, colleagues alike. But I'm usually the one in this mix. It's my career, part of my job. Last night? I had … Continue reading A Man’s World
Boundaries vs. Walls
There once was a girl named Me. Seriously, it was me. I believed in magical things. Like Santa and upside down cake. I met a very very handsome brain surgeon. He looked like Oscar de la Hoya, but he was not Hispanic, he was a white dude. But equally as sexy and fit. And he … Continue reading Boundaries vs. Walls
Minus One for the Singles
Sorry I didn't blog yesterday. I've been sick. Blech. I've been in bed for about three days now. No bueno. Being sick is never fun for anyone. Being sick as a single person? Well, it just sucks. I remember there being a Sex and the City episode on this (surprise, surprise, they always think of … Continue reading Minus One for the Singles
“I Don’t Want to See You Get Hurt.”
Ah, my favorite 'friend' line. If you've uttered these words from your lips- pay attention, this post is for you. I have a declaration to make. I'M OKAY GETTING HURT. Did y'all hear me? I'm okay getting hurt. I think hurt, disappointment, failure... words that are generally perceived as negative- are all part of life's … Continue reading “I Don’t Want to See You Get Hurt.”
What’s Cookin’?
I know yesterday I wrote about keeping my mind calm and blank, and not adding anything new to the mix. Staying the course, and enjoying the course. And day one into it- I think I have. Except I received a notice in my email today: My Plant-Based Cooking Level 1 course is now ready for … Continue reading What’s Cookin’?
My Mind is Blank
I have been writing nearly every day (there were a couple of days in there I skipped, or if I was on vacation, I didn't contribute as frequently) since April 2012. I have had that many ideas free-flowing in my head for a while now. And last night... nothing. Today, I thought I would sit … Continue reading My Mind is Blank
Dear 25 Year Old Me
I was just thinking how much I've changed since I was in my early twenties. All I cared about was having everything my parents had and more- while still in my twenties- and beating all my friends to it. How can I get there the fastest? How can I 'show' everyone how awesome/smart/amazing I am?! … Continue reading Dear 25 Year Old Me
You Get What You Give
I believe Karma is the word. Although I think Karma is a bit overused these days. People just love saying, (insert nasaly voice) "Karma is a b&*ch". Well, if you are saying that- isn't that negative? Which means that it'll come back around to get you too? Or, "I did something good, so I have … Continue reading You Get What You Give
Great Expectations
I'm going to get all English lit up in here. Oh, yes, I titled this post after David Copperfield's famous novel; but don't think I'm actually going to be discussing the life of Pip right now. No, it was another Englishman that led me to this topic today- Billy Speares: Ah, expectations. The death of … Continue reading Great Expectations
