It sounds wild, but has been true for over a decade— my best ideation always comes during a really good massage! It is a rare moment when I am not only immobile, but also having the stressors and triggers of everyday life worked out of my body. 

I was in the middle of a BMOL (best massage of life) last month, when I starting jamming on next steps for my blog— this dear, sweet platform for musing about outfits, feelings, food and… New York City (lolz). I had this overwhelming desire to bring to my evolving blog conversation the incredible women who keep me both afloat and grounded, while they themselves are building businesses, raising children, co-creating lives with/out spouses and charting their own paths.

I want to share with my handful (and growing) of readers these special Tens of Things— a simple 1-10 of the small and large things helping my best girls navigate the utter joy and inevitable bullshit of being a woman in 2023.

For my inaugural Guest of Tens coming to you very soon, the woman who has been my guiding light of cool for every moment of my life— my sister and shopaholic, Arienne!
