What kind of witch are you? I am a word witch. My language is magic. After all, it is called spelling. Be impeccable with your words. Be connected when you speak. Believe what you say, because even the most verbose among us often go unheard. We get glossed over like lip balm. They listen to…

Hashtag Me Too
Me too. This is where we are. This is who we are and a true testament to how far we haven’t come. We are reduced to sharing hashtags and status updates to prove that sexual harassment and assault are real and rampant. Because apparently, if enough of us copy and paste a status on Facebook, we’ll…
Women’s March Los Angeles
Yesterday I had the pleasure, the honor and the priveledge to march alongside 750,000 likeminded individuals. There were a massive number of men in attendance, which I found to be both surprising and uplifting. Every race, religion and creed was represented in droves.

An Open Letter to Fox News and “The Five”
Dear Fox News and “The Five”, I’d like to take a moment to conjure up the image of Kimberly Guilfoyle holding her head in her hands asking “Why did they ruin my thing?”. Indeed, gentlemen (and I use that term loosely), why did you ruin her thing? In fact, why did you think that it…
Let’s talk about the “F” word… And I don’t mean Fuck.
I want to discuss the “F” word today… That’s right, that dirty word FEMINISM. When I see a woman exclaim that she is “NOT A FEMINIST” it always catches me off guard. One of my favorite quotes is this: “Do you believe that all humans are equal? Do you believe that women are human? CONGRATULATIONS,…
