They say life begins at 40, but no one ever tells you why. Is it just a comforting cliche to soften the sting of aging? Or is there something real behind it? Spoiler: there is. Something does shift around this time. And there’s a reason why—a reason why your 40s tend to crack your life […]
Have you ever been listening to the radio and the promo jingle for the station comes on, claiming their music selection can “make your workday go faster”? It’s the kind of thing that makes me feel incredibly sad whenever I hear it. Over our lifetimes, we spend a huge proportion of our waking hours at […]

When I was a medical student, I loved surgery. The operating room experience is like nothing else, and there’s something deeply satisfying about solving a problem so definitively. Tumor? You cut it out. Infection? You drain it. Voila. Problem solved. Also, there’s the ritual of the OR: the washing of hands, the donning of sterile […]

I know it’s been quiet around here lately, but there are some changes afoot. Behind the scenes over the past several months I’ve been doing a lot of soul-searching, dreaming, and planning…and I’ve finally got some things figured out.

On my personal blog, I shared a little story last week: What I learned about Me Time (and about myself) when my husband and kids […]

Whether you love Valentine’s Day, or whether you loathe it…everyone can appreciate a little health boost now and then, am I right? Valentine’s Day and chocolate go hand in hand. Feeling a little guilty about your favorite indulgence? Don’t. Here’s why chocolate is good for you. (Yes, you read that right.) And speaking of pleasurable indulgences…here’s […]

Passport To Health is one of my favorite topics…it allows me to talk about two things I love: health and travel. As I’ve said before, we North Americans may be many things, but one thing we’re not? Svelte. Fact is, we can learn a lot from other countries. (And shamelessly steal their health secrets.) Today, […]

The holidays are the perfect time for charitable acts. And this year, in particular, it feels like exactly the right thing to do. Whether it’s volunteering, helping, or donating–it just feels good, right? Well, I’d like to draw your attention to a little side benefit of altruism: research is showing that people who help others actually […]

First, an announcement: I recently started a new blog…over at kimfosterwrites.com. And the main reason for that: I have a book deal! *pops champagne* For a long time I’ve been a closet novelist. I’m talking years of scribbling away and inhabiting the imaginary worlds of my brain. At long last, just this past July, my agent landed […]

A recent study showed that people in their 40s with a wide circle of friends have a greater sense of well-being than those without close friendships. (As a side note, the researchers behind this study are calling these ages “mid-life” which, PS, people: I staunchly refuse to do. Hovering, as I am, close to 40 I will probably […]

You’re doing all the right things—Waking up early, writing in your journal, blocking every hour in your calendar. From the outside, it looks like you’ve mastered the art of personal growth.

You might think acting is all about pretending. I used to believe that, too. But when I walked into my first acting class, expecting to polish up my on-camera presence, I discovered something entirely different. Acting school didn’t teach me how to fake it. It taught me how to stop hiding. And after years of […]

I used to think I just needed to hustle harder, wake up earlier, cram more in, and push through. But no matter what I tried, I was still drowning in to-do lists and constantly playing catch-up.
