I'm a writer, storyteller, overthinker, eating disorder survivor, socially awkward nerd as well as speaker (so basically a walking and talking contradiction), and a perfectionist in recovery. I am currently working on my first novel.
I'm the author of Getting Past Perfect: Finding Joy & Grace in the Messiness of Motherhood and Weightless: Making Peace With Your Body.
I’ve tried a lot of things in my life – anorexia, bulimia, law school, teaching aerobics, acting, vegetarianism, trying to be perfect – and through it all I’ve been writing. And learning to embrace the messiness of life instead of covering it up, making excuses for it, or being ashamed of my brokenness or my home’s sticky counters.
Nowadays I’m striving every single, imperfect day to strike a balance between keeping it real and keeping it joyful.
