One of the things I deeply admire about Ann Coulter is that she has one byline: “Author.” It’s in her Twitter bio, and it’s so barnburningly succinct. In an era when anyone and everyone is trying to be a “brand” or what have you, it’s good to see some people still focus on the “do”…

Six months later and I’m learning about gratitude. It’s always a lesson I scoffed at as if it wasn’t important. It seemed too simple, too childlike, too inapplicable. Six months ago I walked out of the ICU to get a bagel and some coffee. Another bad night of sleep against a window, hoping the new…

As those of who you follow my Instastories know (god I’m sorry you have to see those), I’ve recently become obsessed with Marie Kondo and her whole tidying up routine. For those who haven’t seen the show (including me!) it’s about sifting through the clutter and identifying things that no longer serve you, and letting…

Not accustomed to happiness, and I’ve probably covered this topic before. But like a car that’s gotten used to running on regular gas, I’m used to running on a shitstorm of horrible. It drives me – problem solving, having to work your way out of a tight jam, those last minute Hail Marys. However, I’ve…
