Eliminate these 6 common mistakes in 5 minutes flat. (4, if you read quickly.)

You can fool them with your mouth, but not with your hands. Say what?! Today I’d like to clear up 3 pairs of words that sound exactly the same, but are written differently. If you say them out loud, people will always assume that you’re using the right one (unless they think you are an […]
I’m the worst vlogger ever!

I was given the great opportunity to vlog for Telegraaf Vrouw – and I think I did a kind of horrible job! I forgot to look good, I held things upside down, I vlogged at 9 am after being up all night, I vlogged in the dark (where I look best, I think) etc etc. […]
Trying to get back in the saddle (when you hate the horse)

Hi darling! First off – a huge word of thanks. THANKS. Wait….that’s not big enough. THANKS. Ah, that’s better. So many of you reached out to me after the last newsletter, I spent hours writing everyone back – I hope I didn’t miss anyone! I won’t say that it’s been an easy week – not […]
What. A. Week…..

Oy. Vey. What a week. I’ve felt elated, let down, disappointed, loved, supported, hated, celebrated, and isolated. All this and so much more in just a few short days. It started when I was on DWDD talking about what it’s like to be the only one in my family voting for Hillary. Lots of reactions came in […]

Omroep Brabant TV

I had a great time talking to Arjo Kraak in his TV show KRAAK for Omroep Brabant. The other featured guests were Frank Baaijens, Rector Magnificus at the Technical University of Eindhoven, and Marc van Roosmalen, the famed biologist and ecologist, who has lived in the Amazon for 40 years and has discovered new plant […]

I was honored to be featured in de Telegraaf yesterday. You can read all about it here.
Tricks and Treats!

Why didn’t the skeleton go to the party? Because he had no body to go with. HAHAHA. HAPPY HALLOWEEN! That was lame. Wait. I can do better. Why didn’t the skeleton go on the roller coaster? Because he had no guts! Still bad? Ok. Let me try again. What do ghosts eat for dinner? SPOOKETTI!! […]
Jumping Without A Net

Typing this is a very grateful me. (Oh, sorry, that was rude to start that way. How are you, sweet ? How’s this autumn Monday treating you?) Ok. Back to me. The attitude is gratitude, yo. Know why? Because at the end of every day I realize that I made the right decision. Let me take […]
