Empty nesting is a transition we often anticipate long before it arrives.🪹

For years, I imagined the grief of my children leaving home and wondered who I would be when the role that had shaped so much of my life began to change.

I’m deeply honored to share both my personal experience of becoming an empty nester and my professional perspective now live in this new article @lifetimetv.

This chapter can bring sadness, disorientation, freedom, curiosity, and even an unexpected sense of possibility. It is not about replacing motherhood or leaving it behind. It is about reconnecting with the parts of yourself that may not have had enough room while your house and days were full.🏡

Purpose does not have to arrive as one defining answer. It can begin with small choices, meaningful connections, new experiences, and simply noticing what makes you feel more like yourself again.🧭

Let this article be an invitation to consider:

What is ready for more room?

What is drawing you back to life?

Comment PURPOSE and I’ll send you the full @lifetimetv article, beautifully written by @michmich__rr.

August is Hair Loss Awareness Month, so we're revisiting a GQ article featuring Dr. Ken Anderson's perspective on red light therapy and hair loss.

In the article, Dr. Anderson discusses where red light therapy may fit into a hair restoration plan, what it can realistically accomplish, and where its limitations are.

One important takeaway: red light therapy may help slow the progression of hair loss and preserve existing hair, but it cannot revive follicles that have already been permanently lost.

Thank you to GQ and Michele Ross for including Dr. Anderson's expertise in this important conversation.

I’m so grateful to be featured in a new @oprahdaily piece, “3 Simple Ways to Be Kinder to Yourself.” 🤍

We can be so quick to offer compassion to others, yet so hard on ourselves when we stumble.

In the article, I share two practices I come back to again and again: one of my Lemonade Mantras, “Where’s love and forgiveness?” and the reminder that we’re all still learning how to walk.

Maybe the moments we judge ourselves most are the moments we need our own kindness most.

Comment “KIND” and I’ll send you the full piece.💌

Thank you to @marieclairemag for featuring me in your discussion on the growing role of growth factors in modern skin care and facial rejuvenation.

In the article, I shared why growth factors have become such an exciting part of regenerative aesthetics. By supporting collagen production, skin repair, and overall skin quality, they can be an excellent complement to a comprehensive treatment plan, especially following aesthetic procedures.

Healthy, resilient skin is the foundation of every beautiful result. Grateful for the opportunity to help educate readers on the science behind evidence-based skincare and how regenerative therapies continue to shape the future of aesthetic medicine. #MarieClaire #BeverlyHillsPlasticSurgeon #DrGould

122 experts. 11 disciplines. One simple question. ⬇️⬇️⬇️

What does genuinely good mental health look like?

After several rounds of review, six core pillars emerged.

I loved contributing to this @joinsuperage article because the findings echo so much of what I’ve witnessed over the past 25 years as a therapist.

Purpose is so often treated like a destination. As if one day we’ll finally figure it out and never feel lost again.

That has not been my experience.

Purpose is less about a final answer and more about orientation. It’s the way we turn toward what matters. It’s something we practice in small, living ways every day.

To me, mental health isn’t simply about reducing symptoms. It’s about building a life rooted in meaning, honesty, compassion, and connection.

Which of these three pillars—purpose, self-acceptance, or connection—needs your attention most right now?

We only explored the first three here. If you’re curious about the remaining pillars, I encourage you to read the full Super Age article by @michmich__rr.

Have you ever heard someone say that Accutane made their nose shrink? Have you wondered if that’s really possible? @marieclairemag asked about just that. The long and short of it is it can a little bit, but it’s still a far cry from the changes you see with a rhinoplasty. Read through if you want the full story. Great article, @michmich__rr and thank you for interviewing me!

I’m so grateful to be featured in this new piece in @oprahdaily by @michmich__rr on grounding the spinning mind and returning to the body, even without meditating.

Mindfulness begins the moment you notice activation.🌊

In the article, I share my lemonade mantras, simple phrases we can reach for when life hands us lemons. They help soften rigid thinking, release resistance, and keep us steady in hard moments.⚓️

These tools are simple enough for kids and powerful enough for adults. We need them now more than ever.🍋

Strong doesn’t have to mean solo.✨

What often looks like strength, competence, or resilience is sometimes an early adaptation to inconsistency, lack of safety, or having to grow up too soon.

I was honored to be quoted in @selfmagazine on toxic independence and how it can quietly shape our relationships, our nervous systems, and our ability to receive support.

Healing doesn’t require undoing who you became.
It asks for awareness.
It asks for a pause when you’re triggered.
And it invites a new relationship with support, one that feels safe now.

Awareness creates choice.
And you always have a choice.🤍
