October is mental health awareness month, so in the spirit of erasing the stigma around mental health care, I want to share my mental health journey.

If you’ve been following me on the ‘gram, you may already know I’ve been MIA because my daughter Raquel Taylor Wulfsohn was born on March 1.…
I started this blog shortly before I turned 30, and to mark my milestone birthday, I wrote a list of mantras / Ten Things I Learned this past decade. Today I turn 35, and I thought it would be fun to take a look back at what I wrote. I was so shocked that everything I wrote still resonates with me today, even though my life has changed dramatically in the last 5 years.…
It took me three pregnancies to realize it, but nesting is real. The first time around, I painted the second bedroom of our East Village rental with low VOC paint in one day and then slowly furnished and decorated Bear’s nursery over the course of 5 or 6 months. When I found out I was pregnant with my second, I bought a new bassinet and a second crib that converted to a full bed and had it built in a…
I was buying white hydrangeas and drunken goat cheese at my favorite little market the other day. I’m obviously pregnant at 19 weeks and I was holding hands with my 18 month old son, Luke. The store owner has met me several times, and had also met my 3 year old son. “You have two boys? Do you know what you’re having next?” “Yes, it’s a girl,” I smiled. “You’re DONE,” she deadpanned. Please, never say this to anyone.…

It was so perfect, and it made me finally believe that I am actually having a daughter in 10 weeks. To mark the occasion, here are 5 things that have surprised me about my third pregnancy.…

I am not an expert by any means, however, this trick has saved us from any wild 5am wake up calls. Here is how I get my kids back on schedule after daylight savings:…
I am so excited to share with you all that I am expecting my third baby March 1! I found out a few days before my first son’s third birthday. When I asked him what he wanted for his big day, he said, “a SISTER!” He is nothing if not intuitive, but he has also been asking for a sister ever since he saw Frozen. I did became nervous about how he would receive the news if we were to…
This past Saturday, we celebrated my second son Luke’s first birthday. I had an unexpected reaction that is pretty out of character for me. I cried. A lot.…
This was not the post I was planning on writing after Fashion Week, and I was not planning on a follow up post to this one. However, as fate would have it, I bumped into The Eva Chen after a Fashion Week event. I’ve seen her around many times, but this was the first time we met.…
