From the creator of the Nerdist Elite Podcast…
On television, walking down the street, visiting with friends and family...you see everyone with their furry friends. Their compadres. Their partners in crime and laziness. Their dogs. Sure, it’s appealing in all the right ways and I can’t blame you for wanting to find a fuzzy creature to call your own. Having a dog is... Continue Reading →
…just let that sink in. I really mean it. Absolutely everyone should go to therapy, I believe that. We are humans and over time we become broken. We get worn thin, over worked, over used, over tired and often times we never take care of ourselves. I see the mind as a muscle, it has... Continue Reading →
Y’all. This is me. This is my body right now without restriction. This is my 41 year old body without killing myself at a gym. This is my body being honored with movement when I am able and when I goddamn feel like it. This is me eating pizza, but also loving veggies. This is... Continue Reading →

Recently I was asked, "What is advice you'd give kids these days?". After thinking long... Continue Reading →
Recently I’ve been reading a book with an entire chapter painting the picture of a town the author grew up in. It gave me so many feelings reading it and inspired me to write about my town, my childhood, my experience. Just fragments of what I remember. I don’t want to forget more than I... Continue Reading →
If you want to travel to Hawaii, you might want to read this
The hum of the furnace and Elvis’ little snore. My fingers typing as the next words come to my thoughts. The lights on our Christmas tree and the feeling of excitement this time of year — even without children, it’s still magical. Pine and peppermint as I breathe it all in. The heat of my...
