Think “winning” an argument means always being right? … WRONG! Want to never “lose” another argument ever again? I’ve discovered that reconnecting to your personal purpose when conflict crops up is the secret to understanding how to rise above the energy of a fight, and bring about a win-win resolution. I’ve certainly had my share of fights in my […]
I wasn’t always an atheist. There was a period in my life in which I was Catholic, and I humbled myself by giving things up for Lent. Or, well, I ostensibly gave things up for Lent, just like every other Catholic. Because let’s be honest, Lent is pretty much just New Year’s Resolution Mulligan, and […]
I’m a hopeless romantic, but in the last six months, I’ve had a drastic shift in what love means to me. I’ve let go of the idea that love is an intense and demanding force. It doesn’t need all of my attention and it doesn’t mean things have to happen “now or never.” I’ve learned […]

I am going to the Caribbean in a couple months. My dad won a trip at an auction, and he’s taking the family, significant others included. When I found out, my first thought was “Yay!” and my second thought was, “Shit.” The “shit” related to the fact that I have not put on a bikini […]
Yesterday, xoJane published a piece that ended up causing an interesting discussion among myself and some friends. It was titled “My Liberal Parents Bragged About Me Being Queer While I Was Still Ashamed of It” — and subtitled “What do you do when your liberal parents start treating your sexual orientation as cultural capital before you […]
A new season of “Scandal” is here, but unfortunately Olivia did not come to her senses during the time away. She’s picking up where she left off with Fitz and it’s as gross as you’d expect. This is extra upsetting because with the exception of last season’s finale, it was seeming like even if they […]
