(Short on time? I can read this to you while you multi-task.) When do you become valuable? I’ve been asking myself this question lately and wrestling with the somewhat inconclusive answer. What makes somebody valuable? Is our value as humans inherent or are we only valuable as a reference to what we bring to […]
(Want me to read this to you? Click the player above.) You wake up at 2 in the morning. You go from sleep to anxiety, all of your worries crowding your brain instantly. Go back to sleep, you tell yourself. If you’re awake now, you’ll be exhausted during the day when you actually need […]
Right now there are a lot of questions around “getting it right.” How do I do anti-racism the right way? How do I talk to my Black friend and support her without adding to her burden? Articles point us in one direction and then in the opposite direction. We’re so afraid of saying and doing […]

About once a year I like to write a manifesto to help guide me throughout the year. It’s not January yet but It feels like a new world, doesn’t it? My mom texted my sisters and me yesterday to say there was another shooting. All I could think was, “Seriously? Another one? I have to […]
Yesterday was one of those mornings. The kind of morning where everything was off. My 3 year old was a wreck. I was trying to start off my Monday with yoga and meditation before doing some work (didn’t happen). My partner and I got mad at each other because we were both stressed out by the […]
