Spoiler Alert: Life lessons from my Jim Parsons era
In case you hadn’t heard, I’m officially in my Jim Parsons era.

A Super Shot of NSYNC NYC Nostalgia

Self-Love is in the air
If the month of February had a color palette, I think we can all agree it’d be 50 shades of red…the color of love.

Listen: Perception is reality
How many of you have ever had a entire conversation with someone without realizing you were talking about two different things? Maybe you assumed you knew what the other person was talking about, and turned out to be wrong. Or vice versa. How does this kind of thing happen? Well, if you've ever heard this…
Listen: All about goals
New Years Day is around the corner, and everyone is talking about their New Years Resolutions. And yet, how many of us have signed up for a gym membership on January 1, just to fall off the wagon come March? Or how many times have we all said we'd start that diet on the proverbial…
