Hey, my friends. I hope youre all feeling safe and well during this time.

Its been quite awhile since I wrote a blog post here, as Ive spent the past 18 months writing a book which took 100% of my energy and focus. I cant believe its actually done and will be out in the world in just a few short weeks! The covid-19 situation has made everything feel veryyyy different than expected (for everyone in the world, I know). Im doing my best to stay connected to my work and take care of myself...

Dear friends,

I cant believe its finally time for me to share the project Ive been working on for the past 18 months. This is the first time Im sharing about it publicly, after dedicating all of my time and energy to it for a very, very long time it feels a little nerve-wracking to share it with the world!

This project began as my quest to find ways to help my dad when he got diagnosed with cancer, and it unexpectedly became the most meaningful and important research of my life.

Writing my...

Hey, guys. I cant believe it was a year ago that I initially posted my dads 6 month pancreatic cancer update. Now Im posting his 18 month update! Thats pretty wild. Its been an amazing and challenging ride, for sure and I feel really grateful that Im able to post an 18 month update. I know my whole family is feeling grateful, too.

While I was on my 6-week instagram break, I got a handful of emails from people asking me for an update on my dad I was thrilled to see that those were the posts...

6 weeks ago, I was sitting in my backyard in Brooklyn drinking iced coffee with one of my best friends, on what felt like the first official iced coffee day of the year. The sun was shining, I had just given her a birthday card and gift, and it was, overall, a really lovely moment. I wasnt feeling lovely, though.

Ive been feeling really depressed latelylike, really, really low, I said.

I think Instagram is part of the problem. Every time I open it, I end up feeling noticeably worse. I might...

Hey, my friends.

Im on the train right now (well, this train ride was April 9th, but Im just finishing the post now), on the way back from a really special experience up at Kripalu Center for Yoga & Health in Stockbridge, MA. Im getting used to writing on trains (and even train platforms sometimes), as Ive got a big writing deadline in front of me. I havent said anything about this on the blog yet Ive only announced it on instagram, but Im on an instagram break at the moment (which is...

Hi, my friends.

Yesterday, I posted this photo on instagram with an update on my dads pancreatic cancer journey.

After I posted it, messages started pouring into my inbox from people who have been newly diagnosed with cancer and caregivers of people with cancer. As you can imagine, many of these messages are coming from people in a state of fear, uncertainty and desperation. My family felt all of those things too. when he first got diagnosed, and when I searched pancreatic cancer on the...

Hi my friends,

Im so excited to share my 2nd podcast episode with you. Thank you so much for your patience with me as I learn to be a podcaster who knew it was this much work!? Why does nobody talk about this? (People probably do but I definitely wasnt listening)

Anyway, this episode covers EVERYTHING about CBD, with my friend Greg Prasker, one of the founders of Supherbals CBD oil. 

I get emails and instagram messages with questions about CBD every day, so it was important to me to put...
