photo from goop A few months ago, I found myself on a road trip with my husband and a (male) friend. We hadn’t traveled 10 miles before falling deep into conversation, as only the open road inspires, and before long I was venting to the guys about the self-inflicted pressure we women endure, which “they could […]
We all know that it’s never too soon to start saving for retirement, but is it premature to start planning my post-retirement career now? Ever since coming across this tour of a beautiful ceramicist’s studio a few weeks ago, I’ve been fantasizing about life at the pottery wheel. It would all take place at my […]

That’s a shame, because many people eventually find themselves stranded in adulthood without the built-in network of friends that school always provided them. Whether you’ve just moved to […]
Is there ever a time of year when you’re not planning your next trip? I find it inspiring how much our culture has embraced travel in recent years, finally following the lead of our friends across the pond in realizing how much it can truly enrich life. And with design-forward boutique hotels taking the place of […]
Speaking from the perspective of a semi-newlywed woman, I can guarantee that just about every bride you know has registry regrets. Whether it’s due to pressure from others, lack of understanding all the options, or the fact that you have so much other stuff swirling around in your head, the truth is that it’s impossible to […]
