Book your Valentine’s and Galentine’s Day reservations now—consider this your romantic little nudge. 🍾🍾🍾

@cara_hotel // aside from this charming boutique hotel being my California DREAM house, I loved dining al fresco under the twinkling lights and olive trees. This hidden gem is tucked away in Los Feliz and every effortlessly chic LA lady’s dream.

@sunset_tower // a classic spot that will immediately transport you to a more glamorous time in Hollywood. Don’t sleep on the sundae and all the fun toppings.

@georgianroom // one of my favorite hidden gems and, dare I say, one of the few truly elegant places in Santa Monica. It feels very NYC—tucked into the basement of @thegeorgian—with leather booths and a bar that wraps around live piano entertainment. (Photo by The Georgian Room)

@lamonique.la // me if I was a restaurant— you’d never guess has an ocean view. Paris, via Santa Monica—truly the most glamorous restaurant!

@sognotoscano // live music, Italian comfort food, and an espresso bar—perfect for lunch or dinner al fresco. (Montana Ave location)

@delilah // perfect for a late dinner reservation and a clubby vibe after. Gorgeous pink velvety booths, burlesque, and prime young-Hollywood people watching.

@thevioletla // all the charm. A little bit of Provence in a cozy courtyard with a beautiful bar, excellent French food, and it’s also a cooking school.

@monsieurmarcelfm // don’t let the farmers market location fool you. Classic French bistro cuisine, and truly—what’s more romantic than fondue for two?

@88club // a stunning bar with delicious Chinese-fusion cuisine. (Photo by 88 Club)

@hotelbelair // my favorite date-night spot of all time. The romance starts the moment you walk the grounds and spot the swans.

@dantebeverlyhills // my top pick for a fancy Galentine’s Day—the cocktails are exceptional.

New Orleans moved me in ways I didn’t expect.

Our tour guide spoke about the city’s roots — the layers of connection between cultures that existed here long before it became the United States. The way French, Spanish, African, Caribbean, and Indigenous influences blended over generations into something entirely its own — Creole culture at its core — felt like such a powerful reminder of what can happen when histories and humanity intersect.

And in a time when our country feels so heavy and fractured, that story hit me right in the heart.

It reminded me that something more beautiful has always been possible on this land… and it made me feel hopeful that we can find our way back to it again.

A love letter to a city I’ll never forget. 🤍—more to come this week.

5 ways to fight seasonal depression. 🤍

As a therapist, I’m always reminding people (and myself) that winter can feel heavy — especially now as we are witnessing tragedy in our country.

Seasonal depression isn’t about “not being grateful.”
It’s about our brains and bodies needing a little more support when the light, routine, and connection shift.

So here are a few small, gentle practices that can help:
✨ step outside
✨ move your body
✨ find micro-joy
✨ check in with yourself
✨ prioritize face-to-face connection

No perfection required — just a little bit of light, one step at a time.

Saving this for the weeks you need it most, no boat required. 🌊

My heart is breaking for our country — and so much of the world — right now. In moments like these, I can feel myself slipping into the heaviness… swimming in a sea of mostly unhelpful social media.

And then I try to take my own therapist advice: to come back to myself, and to reconnect in real life.

I think there’s a difference between staying informed and drowning in information — and I know that line looks different for everyone.

What I do know is that being around people who make me feel good about myself… plus the unbeatable combination of pink balloons and cheesy carbs… always reinvigorates my spirit.

I hope you find a little slice of something joyful right now, in whatever way that looks like for you. 🍕

Okay so 2016 me was so cute.

I miss focusing on one thing at a time, using just my iPhone camera, vsco filters and like 30 hashtags.

Even though the bar for content is much higher now, the algorithm way harder to crack and the tech I use has been upgraded, the core of what I do here has remained the same—creating, capturing and sharing the joys of my life.

It’s a creative outlet I that isn’t just a hobby for me, it’s truly become a way of living I depend on.

Not sure where I’ll be in another ten years or what it will look like, but I imagine, more or less the same. 🤍

How I plan a European summer ⛱️

From tracking flights and reserving multiple hotels, to building visual itineraries, saving maps, planning outfits and even scouting pediatric hospitals… I’ve learned that the more you prepare, the more relaxed and present you get to be once you arrive.

European summers run later, linger longer, and reward those who leave room for magic. So yes, I plan — but I also stay flexible, nap when needed and let the magic find me. ✨

Save this for your next trip, or send to friend who hates an itinerary!

ASPEN CITY GUIDE ⛷️🫕 🐻

Perhaps the most glamorous ski town in America, Aspen is over the top in all the best ways.

GETTING THERE
It’s a bit up to fate but if you can fly direct it’s the best (our flight home was cancelled but since it was the first one out we were rerouted first from Vail after a hefty car service bill).
Flying into Denver + a 3.5 hour car ride is your safest option.
Flying private if you’re lucky!

STAY
@hoteljeromeauberge // if Ralph Lauren did an American chalet, walking distance to town
@stregisaspen // ultimate alpine luxury, center of Aspen town
@viceroysnowmass // best for kids at ski school, 20 minutes from Aspen town
@innataspen // base of Buttermilk, great for families, free shuttle
@limelighthotels (Aspen) // center of town, modern with a rooftop
@gantaspen // condo-style suites with fireplaces and kitchens, hotel amenities, free shuttle to town and lifts

WHERE TO APRÈS
@thesnowlodgeaspen // the Surf Lodge but make it ski
Cloud Nine // Veuve Clicquot chaos, ski down after
Ajax @thelittlenell // outdoor social scene + people watching
@hoteljeromeauberge // cozy cocktails or hot cocoa by the fire, kids welcome

SWEETS & COFFEE
@gorsuch café // the most Aspen coffee stop, fireside seating + chic people watching
Paradise Bakery // legendary Aspen cookies and hot chocolate
Louis Swiss Pastry // old-school European pastries
@felixroastingco // great espresso + easy morning stop
@santambroeus // chic Italian café for coffee, pastries and people watching

DINE
@french.alpine.bistro // cozy fondue and Swiss-Alps vibes
@whitehousetavern // Hillstone in Aspen, comfort food + mountain lodge decor
@casatuaaspen // romantic Italian, my favorite location of this restaurant
@meatandcheeseaspen // charcuterie boards and perfect after-ski food
@betulaaspen // glamorous crowd, think St. Barts in Aspen

DO
Ski or snowboard // one lift ticket gives you four mountains:
Ajax (center of town, sceney)
Snowmass (vast, great for everyone, ski school hub)
Buttermilk (perfect for beginners)
Highlands (most challenging, home of Cloud Nine Bistro)

As a therapist, I know January 7 is one of the peak days for suicide hotlines. The emotional crash after the holidays, the pressure of a new year, and major life decisions can feel especially overwhelming for those already struggling.

One of the most misunderstood truths about suicide is this: most people who experience these thoughts are not trying to end their lives — they are trying to end the pain they’ve been carrying for too long.

In over ten years of practicing psychotherapy, I’ve come to believe that many people who contemplate suicide actually value life more than we assume. They are deeply aware of joy and meaning — and painfully aware of how far they feel from it.

When suicide does occur, it’s often not a desire to die, but a longing for relief from an unbearable burden.

And for those who feel anger or judgment toward loved ones who struggle — that reaction often comes from pain, fear, and helplessness of our own.

What helps most is connection. Strong, consistent relationships are one of the greatest protective factors against suicidality. Regular calls, walks, shared meals, showing up — these things matter more than we realize.

If you’ve ever struggled to understand your own thoughts — or someone else’s — this is worth saving.

We can’t save our loved ones.
But we can show up. 🤍

If you’re struggling with suicidal thoughts, you can call or text 988 for support. You are not alone.

In our 20s we lived within a few blocks of one another; did dinners, drinks, brunches, lunches, birthdays and girls trips. Watched each other date in LA, build our careers and eventually get married, buy homes, have kids and move cross country (everyone left LA except for me).

We were always close, but after this trip I’ve never felt more connected. It’s crazy what a few days away with good friends can do. 🤍

Just a reminder that all good friendships take time and are meant to evolve. Love you ladies so much and thank your for such a meaningful (and aesthetically pleasing) vacation. 🥂🐒

Palm Beach is my Disneyland — here’s how to do it! 🐒

STAY
@palmhousehotel_ — perfect if you want to be in the center of town for a girls’ trip and the shell wall makes an excellent backdrop!
@thebreakers — the all-around best resort experience, great for families or big groups.
@thevinetahotel — opening next year from @oetkerhotels and already on my list.
@thecolonypalmbeach — cute, iconic, and perfect if you want to always be where the party is.
@fspalmbeach — a true getaway; farther from town but worth it for a real retreat.
@thebraziliancourt — I’d stay here with Arthur for a romantic getaway 🤍

DO
Spa day at @thebreakers — the best way to start a kid-free trip. Treatments include full-day spa access.
Croquet — your first time includes a free lesson (wear white).
Bingo or trivia nights at @thecolonypalmbeach — people get very into it.
Shop Worth Avenue and wander the charming vias — it reminds me of quaint European villages!

SHOP
@theroyalpoincianaplaza — so many great shops in a tropical setting.
@juliaamory — designer to the modern-day C.Z. Guest and a cabana stripe tented ceiling you must see!
@laviestylehouse — the most glamorous caftans; a true Palm Beach staple.

DINE
I’ll be honest, the food in Palm Beach isn’t exceptional but the scene is, some places I loved.
@renatospb — tucked away in a charming via.
@lebilboquetpalmbeach — perfect for a chic lady lunch.
@buccanpalmbeach — modern and delicious.
@lagoulue_palmbeach — classic French.
@thepoloroompalmbeach — new and didn’t make it this trip, but looks fabulous.
Swifty’s at @thecolonypalmbeach — very Polo Lounge energy.
@santambroeus — my favorite in every city.

Save this for your next Palm Beach escape! 🍊

There was a time when “Hanukkah Monica” was something classmates used to tease me — shorthand for being different, for being proud to be Jewish.

Over time, I learned what so many of us eventually do:
that the things tied most closely to our identity are often the ones we’re meant to reclaim, not soften.

This table, this cake, this joy — they’re not ironic.
They’re intentional.

For me, one of the cornerstones of being Jewish is a wholehearted belief in miracles. Not always the loud or obvious kind, but the quiet ones — resilience, continuity, choosing joy anyway.

We celebrate. We remember. We reclaim.
And we remain joyful!

Happy Hanukkah 🤍

There was a time when “Hanukkah Monica” was something classmates used to tease me — shorthand for being different, for being proud to be Jewish.

Over time, I learned what so many of us eventually do:
that the things tied most closely to our identity are often the ones we’re meant to reclaim, not soften.

This table, this cake, this joy — they’re not ironic.
They’re intentional.

For me, one of the cornerstones of being Jewish is a wholehearted belief in miracles. Not always the loud or obvious kind, but the quiet ones — resilience, continuity, choosing joy anyway.

The holidays in Los Angeles might not come with snow, but they do come with plenty of ways to feel festive. ✨
Here’s how I’ve spent this season over the last 15 years — equal parts dressed up, cozy, and intentionally slow.

FANCY HIGH TEA
Afternoon tea feels festive any time of year, but especially in December. Everyone’s dressed up, everything feels cozy — and it’s delightfully un-LA, which is exactly why I love it.
Favorites: The Peninsula (pictured, with a kids’ tea), The Culver Hotel, Huntington Gardens, Hotel Bel-Air, The Maybourne, The Langham

THE BEVERLY HILLS HOTEL
Whether it’s a coffee at the Fountain Room, lunch at the Polo Lounge, or just stopping by to see the pink nutcrackers — everything here feels iconic and festive.

HOLIDAY LUNCH WITH FRIENDS
A tradition I never want to lose. Festive outfits, great light, and champagne mid-afternoon — a perfect way to catch up before the end-of-year rush.
Go-tos: Ivy at the Shore, Avra (pictured), Tam O’Shanter, Casa Vega, Polo Lounge, 208 Rodeo, The Bar at Hotel Bel-Air, The Terrace at The Maybourne

THE GROVE
Yes, it’s a zoo — and yes, we still go. We wait 45 minutes for a 5-minute trolley ride and Parker loves every second. Pro tip: grab a table by the fountain during the snow show… unless I get my way at Monsieur Marcel.

RODEO DRIVE LIGHTS
Beverly Hills does holiday decor like no one else. A nighttime walk with friends or family before a cozy dinner at Nate’n Al’s or 208 Rodeo is a yearly must.

REWATCH THE HOLIDAY
No explanation needed. Always, forever.

UNSCHEDULED DOWN TIME
With so many parties, treats, and obligations, blocks of nothing are essential. Eat a vegetable. Stay home. Free play for everyone.

COZY FONDUE NIGHT
An easy way to elevate a night in — chic pajamas, champagne, good company. Truly, what could be better?

Save this for December traditions & share with someone who loves a festive plan. 🎄

We’ve seen it then.
We’ll survive it again.

This table was set with 85 candles — one for each hostage we lost.

Since I first envisioned this table, more names have been added to our mourning.

Two lives at Brown. Fifteen at Bondi Beach.

The number grows.
The grief expands.
But the flame does not diminish.

The plates on this table were carried out of the USSR by my husband’s family when being Jewish meant being unwelcome, unsafe, and expendable. They brought what they could. They saved what mattered. They survived.

The white camellias are from my tree — long associated with purity, mourning, and endurance. Life continuing to bloom, even after devastation.

Add 6,000,000.
And it still would not be enough to extinguish us.

This is how we remember.
This is how we carry forward.
This is how we keep the flame.

🕯️

Am Yisrael Chai

After college, your high school best friend is going to ask you to move to LA.

It’s very important you do. 🌴

One yes became a whole life.

(And yes… The Hills definitely didn’t hurt.)

The buffet details I can’t stop thinking about… 🍊

Sugared fruit towers, vintage silver, winter florals, and a store-bought rotisserie chicken dressed up like it had somewhere fabulous to be.

Because hosting is really about the small details that make people feel welcome.

Save this for your next holiday soirée ✨

It’s the festival of lights, however, this Hanukkah feels different.

I set our table with 85 candles, one for each hostage we lost, as a way to honor both the joy of the holiday and the grief living in our community right now.

Hanukkah is the story of a small light that refused to go out.
May their memories be a blessing, and may our light keep going, too.

Wishing everyone a safe and happy Hanukkah. ✨

An influencer who struggles with perfectionism—Groundbreaking.

I’m still a work in progress, but it’s a much more joyful one.
And I never want my son, my clients, my friends, or my husband to feel like a burden to the parts of me I’m still healing.

That’s what keeps me going. 🤍

The holidays are A LOT: nostalgia, pressure, excitement, grief, family dynamics, expectations, and that persistent hope that this year we’ll magically feel different!

As a therapist (and a mom/recovering perfectionist), I wanted to offer a little room for the messy parts too. These are the reminders I come back to every year, both personally and professionally.

If any of these land with you, I hope they help you feel a little less alone this time of year when we’re supposed to only feel joy 🤍

Save to revisit and take care of yourself! 🫶🏼

Citrus Court Holiday Buffet // The Full Reveal 🍊

Here are the details for everything you saw in the video so you can recreate each dish at home.

🥂Save this post for your holiday hosting.

FRUIT TOWERS //
Brush fruit lightly with egg white, roll in superfine sugar, and attach to a foam cone with toothpicks. Top with a bow!

Orange and Loquat Tower
Use whole oranges in mixed sizes. Alternate oranges with loquats for color and dimension. Brush with egg white and sugar for a frosted finish!

Strawberry Tower
Thoroughly dry the berries. Brush with egg white, dip in superfine sugar, and let them set for about 20 minutes. Build the tower in a spiral pattern from bottom to top.

Grapefruit Slice Tower
Cut grapefruit into 1/4 to 1/3 inch slices and pat dry. Insert the toothpick through the rind first, then secure into the foam. Overlap the slices like shingles for a layered look.

Sugared Cranberry and Kumquat Tower
Brush cranberries and halved kumquats with egg white, roll in superfine sugar, and let dry until crisp. Alternate them as you build for a jeweled effect.

SPICY TUNA CRISPS //
Crisps: Cut rice paper into small rounds or organic shapes. Heat neutral oil in a shallow pan. Fry each piece for 1 to 2 seconds until it instantly puffs and ruffles. Remove immediately and let cool on paper towels. Sprinkle with a pinch of salt.

Tuna Mix: Finely chop sushi grade tuna. Mix with mayo, sriracha, a splash of soy, scallions, and a small squeeze of lime. Top with sesame seeds!

ELEVATED ROTISSERIE CHICKEN
Remove the twine and reset the shape. Place on a silver tray. Tuck herbs like rosemary and thyme around the edges and add citrus slices for color. Lightly brush with olive oil and finish with flaky sea salt. Looks like a French roast with almost no effort!
