STICK A FORK IN ME I’M DONE. Thank you thank you @CBSMornings, @GayleKing, & the rest of this amazing team for giving grief a comfortable, warm space on morning TV. It belongs there as much as any other topic.
Author @RebeccaSoffer says most people "do a really bad job at normalizing" talking about grief. Her new book is an interactive guide on navigating those feelings — and how to grieve "your own way."

what a lovely thing to see upon finally checking Twitter again (and you’re most welcome, Callie).
Thank you @ModernLoss & @RebeccaSoffer for this wonderful idea–I honestly had no clue how much it would brighten this time of year to receive something so thoughtful & kind. 🤍 If anyone is grieving, I strongly suggest reading The Modern Loss Handbook–it’s been a great companion.

I wrote an essay for @modernloss about finding your way back to yourself after loss. Huge thanks to @rebeccasoffer for the opportunity and to @iuliamdb @lelyse522 and @lsteel for setting the stage so selflessly. I love you guys. https://t.co/QEMsqjRRXS

“Mostly we do not dwell in this impossible, narrow place, we only are here: handing out medicines, hoping to walk and return to the world. I tell them I wish I had answers.”
I can no longer shield my children from hard conversations, if I ever could.

literally insane.
NEW: Rents in Manhattan have just broken another astounding record. Avg monthly rent: * Overall: $5,142 * Studios: $3,152 * 1 bed: $4,247 * 2 bed: $6,193 * 3 bed: $10,058 We DESPERATELY need to address the affordability crisis. (And memo to the haters: Yes NYC is coming back)

I just learned the @ModernLoss newsletter is a 'handpicked' featured publication on @SubstackInc. This means a whole lot to me and I hope you check it out (for free!) Lots of previous issues to read there, too. https://t.co/Si8nUAzbqv

"Nobody gets through this life unscathed…but then you’re left with a choice: are you gonna let your grief drown you? Or are you gonna face it and come through the other side?" -- Harrison Ford as Paul. I'm a really big fan of everything about 'Shrinking.'
