No word of a lie, I’m personally responsible for at least a million hits a day to both Barnes & Noble and Amazon.  My obsession? Checking out the Girl on Top sales ranking.   I’m in a perpetual state of agita hoping, praying, begging for this book to make the NYT Bestseller list, and one of [...]

Full disclosure: I know this sounds a little crazy but I need you to trust me on this one.   So way back when (just checked and we’re talking about 10 years ago) I would pick up ELLE Magazine and it would take everything in me to not flip to the last pages to quite literally [...]

When I was a teenager, I’d save my paint factory money each summer and before the school year started in September my mom and I would take a road trip across the border for a shopping spree at all the stores we didn’t have in Canada.  Our first stop?   The Limited.   It’s been many years [...]

There are only two responses after walking out of a Fashion Week show that took place over the lunch hour.   Hit the closest pizza joint and chow down (I will never be anything over 5’2 and 3/4…in fact I’m shrinking) or have the salad (not entirely uninspiring and I could stand to lose a few).   [...]

It’s only a cause like the Susan G Koman Race for the Cure  that would get my latent ass running 5 km on a Sunday morning!
We were running as part of The Pink Agenda team – young professional women raising money and awareness for breast cancer.   Seriously the most driven, dynamic and dedicated group of [...]

Here’s the sad truth.  While I’ve had a Facebook page for business purposes for ages (tough not to have one when you’re out there recommending it to others), I’ve never actually personally used it until this week!   First and foremost, I have to apologize to my “real” friends who have written and haven’t heard a [...]

Good to know that NY men aren’t the only ones who are delusional about their prowess.  I’m literally sitting at the bar of a restaurant in LA waiting for my lunch and the waiter dude just asked what I’m doing tonight.  I’m like (in my imagination), “You’re a man with long gray hair and braces.

Not going to lie to you… Still get a little thrill sitting back on a flight, opening up the latest issue of Glamour (October – Gwen looks smokin’!!) and reading a writer source my advice.   First time I’m seeing Girl on Top in print – so happy for this to come to life.  It’s felt [...]

Halle Barry’s pregnant…at 43!   Music to my and every other career-striving girl wanting to have a baby soon… but not quite yet.
P.S. Don’t miss out on your chance to get your name in the hat to win $5 grand.  Just go to You.Propelled on DivineCaroline and say how you streamlined your life today. Chime in [...]

Girl on Top is about to land on bookshelves in stores across the country and I want to make sure you get your copy before it sells out (cross your fingers).  I dove wholeheartedly into this book, translating the tried and true principles of dating into strategies for your career success. It’s all here for [...]
