Every night I’m eating chips. I’m not even hungry! Why am I doing this?

I just want to stop drinking at night. But every night, I’m pouring myself a glass.

I’m snapping at my kids. I hate myself – and I think they hate me.

I’m embarrassed that I know the UPS guy by his first name – because…online...

It’s 1959 & your husband has unexpectedly died. You have two sons – 9 & 12.

Being a single woman in 1959, you don’t have an education or many options.

You go to work doing the only work you think you’re qualified for: cleaning at a local nursing home.

This is my beloved Mema’s story.

As a chil...

Maybe at the beginning of COVID quarantine you began to love the scaling back of ‘shit to do’.

The “doing less”…

Maybe there was more quiet in your life…

I’m not gonna bullshit you & say everything’s been COVID-hunky dory over here in LiddyLand.

I’ve been scared & upset & flat out terrified –

B...

The doctor shrugged at me. I’d just turned 40, and shit was starting to go south.

Not sleeping. Weight gain. ZERO libido. Exhaustion.

He shrugged and said, “Well. You’re 40. That’s what it’s like.”

THAT’S WHAT IT’S LIKE?

THAT’s IT?

What the actual frick, man??

This moment began my search to...

I’ve told you about my $250,000 Ph.D. in business, right?

It was exquisitely personalized – teaching me business from the inside out –

which is why it cost so much. 😆

I paid for it with a $25K upfront investment, no salary draw, & plenty of sweat equity.

Take that part about the sweat literally ...

Before COVID, I had an unwavering commitment to my eyelash extensions – like, maybe more serious than to my marriage. ;)

But now, I don’t wanna go back to them – because of both time & money. So I need a good mascara.

Which one, tho? I’m ridiculously lazy about research.

This is why I crowdsource...

I hit a nerve last week.

MANY readers sent thank you messages after my post because I talked about how we’re not failures because…

*THIS* job wasn’t “it” … And *NOPE* - not that thing wasn’t it either… AND also

*OMG* I spent money on this training – but that wasn’t it too!

We’re the SUM of all. ...

Jack sidled up next to me yesterday at the picnic table & checked out my screen so he could comment on what I was up to.

You need to know that my kiddo is 13, precocious, opinionated, and likes to sometimes Mansplain stuff to me.

My screen portrayed a slide deck in its infancy – and said USP - Uni...

Two years ago, I thought I had a superpower.

But was it REALLY a superpower? I mean – this thing was soooo easy for me to do.

This speaks to a long-standing limiting belief deep inside my mind that for something to be VALUABLE –

(i.e. other people will pay for it)

it needs to feel HARD. I need t...

Have you ever spent looking endlessly at a white page, cursor blinking? That was me this weekend, thinking about what I wanted to talk about today.

I repeatedly asked myself, Do I trust myself to write this? Should I hit “publish”?

I did the digital version of crumpling up the yellow legal pad pap...

We’d been on the phone for almost 2 hours -

I’d never done anything like this before, & frankly, I was scared, deep down.

Kweku Riverson, a coach who works with his wife Jessica, was explaining how their coaching program I was interested in worked.

It was exactly what I needed to bust open my bus...

No lie - I’ve gotten swindled by the same woman two times.

My son, his 2 friends, & I were heading into a coffee shop when a FAST-TALKIN’ lady approached us in the parking lot with a STOOOORY!

Oh - man. I can’t even pretend to give this story justice.

Suffice it to say it involved a broken-down ...
