I would say over the last several years that there has been a lot of talk about a mental health crisis. Especially among our teens. I have heard it from therapists and teachers and parents. I have even said it myself. But I’ve been thinking: what if it’s not a crisis so much as an unraveling. What…

There’s a chapter in my book detailing my love affair with cigarettes (yes, that’s a shameless book plug but trust I have a point) and if I’m being honest, it is a battle that comes up quite often. And it comes up most often in times of stress and if there is one thing I…

Once upon a time I deactivated my social media accounts and in doing so, Facebook deleted my Rebel Housewife page and that means it also deleted all the micros that I had written which is all well and good but also it was definitely an unexpected consequence of my social media sabbatical.

Life is weird. I was sitting on my couch with my head back on the cushions and hands over my eyes trying to block out the chitter-chatter happening around me and mulling over some writing topics that I wanted to share this week. I set up my Mental Health Mondays, Tuesday Re-Runs and Thursday Thoughts…

Like hearing about it for the zillionth time would prompt the following Simon Cowell reaction? Well that’s how…

I’m doing a little re-run series because I want to post consistently but I don’t have enough posts yet to keep ’em coming so we are gonna share some words I’ve written for other sites and give them a permanent home on this site. So, without further ado… Remember the part of the pandemic where…

Today's post is gonna be short and sweet because, well, I don't have much time to write. Nope let me rephrase that. I had time but I chose instead to binge watch old favorites on Netflix (ahem The Good Place) and veg out for an extended period of time. I regret nothing. I did, however,…
