I’ve been on the internet writing about my life for 10+ years. My essay collection Embrace That Girl was published in 2020, I previously ran a lifestyle blog (the now defunct Emerald Journal), penned a travel column for the Examiner & have had a slew of work published around the web.
it’s just a phase is my newsletter re: motherhood, identity, culture, style + living the life you want.
Embrace That Girl is an essay collection chronicling my twenties to early thirties and all the things we go through during those self discovery years. Think Eat Pray Loves meets Me Talk Pretty One day.
According to the good folks over at Booklife by Publisher’s Weekly it is:
“a well-crafted post-college memoir that will appeal to young readers and those looking for insightful humor on the journey to self-acceptance”
