Living kindly. Let’s talk about this for a second. I get asked quite a bit, What does living kindly mean? And the truth is, living kindly means something different for everyone. When I started this column two years ago, the focus was sharing my weight loss story, and how I made a pact to be […]

I love a good routine. As I write this, I’m sitting on our back patio with a cup of coffee (steamed almond milk and a dash of honey per usual) and my laptop, having completed my skincare routine, popped my vitamins, and done a quick meditation. Just like I do every single morning. Studies have shown […]

I caught the premiere of David Gordon Green’s Manglehorn during SXSW in 2014. (I remember spending a good part of the day waiting in the long line that wrapped around the Paramount theater to get in.)

Confession: before I sat down to write this post, I hopped up and made myself a cup of coffee. Then I posted a couple images to my Instagram stories. Just when I thought I was ready to settle in and start writing, I remembered a text message that needed a response. And finally – here we […]

For a lot of my life, I thought that “feminism” wasn’t all that necessary […]

Amazing how an extra day makes the weekend feel so long and luxurious, like a true opportunity to get rejuvenated for the […]

Morning, friends! It’s a sunshine-y weekend here in Austin, and we’ve been filling it with hours in the pool, lots of giggles, breakfast tacos, and poké bowls. I couldn’t be more thankful to be spending this Mother’s Day with the little humans I love most, and they’ve been showering me with extra hugs (and a […]
