Have you ever had a moment that split your life into “before” and “after”? A decision, a conversation, a chance encounter that changed everything about who you were and how you lived? That’s what’s known as a quantum leap — A sudden, powerful shift into a new version of yourself. But here’s the surprising part… […]
Over on my new YouTube channel I just uploaded my third video, in which I talk about how to stay healthy while on vacation. If you know me at all (especially if you follow me on Instagram), you know I love to travel. But I also recognize how challenging it is to maintain your healthy lifestyle […]

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”?

Angela was desperate to lose weight. Over the past six months she’d noticed her weight going up but couldn’t figure out why. As far as Angela could tell, she was eating the same things she always had. Her activity level hadn’t changed. So she came to see me, her family doctor, asking to get her […]

When I was a new mom—sleep-deprived and struggling under the overwhelm of first-time motherhood—I would go on a daily walk, pushing my stroller to the closest Starbucks. After a short, numb stroll that I barely remembered I would shuffle up to the counter and order a venti macchiato with caramel drizzle and lots of foam. […]

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 frequently write about the challenges moms face in terms of getting healthy (and staying there). One of the things I’ve been thinking about recently is the challenge of Me Time. 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 […]

Are the bags under your eyes bigger than the purse you carry? Are your dark circles heading into Rocky Horror Picture Show territory? The tissues around our eyes are a highly responsive area of our faces–all our woes, illnesses, and sins show up there. On YMC I posted a two-part series recently, on a very pesky health/beauty problem: under-eye bags, […]

I’m preparing a workshop called Stress Detox that I’m giving next week, so I’ve been thinking about stress a lot lately. It’s a topic I’ve written about many times in the past…but looking back on my old posts, I think I’ve neglected to give an overall view of my approach to stress management. In the past few […]

There’s nothing quite like illness to wreck your holidays, am I right? Give yourself the gift of health this year. Here are my thoughts on how to stay healthy this holiday season: Avoid colds & the flu. Seems like everyone is sniffling, sneezing, or coughing. Viruses are a fact of life in the winter, but does […]

Most people think confidence is something you’re born with… or something you fake until you feel it for real. But when I attended a training day at RADA Business (part of the Royal Academy of Dramatic Art in London), I learned what it really means to be confident, and it was not what I expected. […]

There was a season in my life when I felt like I was behind. I looked around at my peers, whose careers, relationships, and successes all seemed light-years ahead of mine. It was crushing. I’d lie awake at night, replaying the same questions: What am I doing wrong? Why am I so far behind? If […]

You know that version of wellness you see all over social media? The one with the green smoothies, 5am wake-ups, and color-coded planners? I chased that version of wellness for years. I woke up at 6am to complete my 10-step morning routine. I meal-prepped every week, and I logged 10,000 steps every day without fail. […]

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 […]

You’ve done everything you were supposed to. You’ve got the degree, built the career, checked every box. So why does your life feel… off? If you feel stuck right now, like you’re going through the motions of a life that no longer fits, know that you’re not alone. I’ve felt that too. I was a […]
