During the times in between shows and festivals when I was at home, I would put a ton of attention on everything I consumed. Before I made a purchase, I considered the impact of what I wanted to buy had on not only my body, but on the world too. There’s no way that I’d ever…

How I raged Frendly Gathering so hard
It’s a couple of days after Frendly Gathering and I’m feelin fine! Being a little tired from all the dancing, sun and walking up and down hills, I was gentle with myself this week, but it’s nowhere near how I used to feel when I forgot to bring my healthy lifestyle with me to the…
How to rage consciously and still be the life of the party
I recently completed my 41st journey around that flaming ball in the sky that we worship when it shows itself. After eating 18 oysters and two glasses of rose’ the day before my birthday, someone asked me my age. When I said, “41,” he almost spit his beer in my face from the shock of…
How We Met: The Morella Devost Story
Before Morella from Thrive with Morella was a successful podcaster, we were both students at the Institute for Integrative Nutrition in NYC. The year was 2004 and we were both trying to figure out how to be healthy and to help others to do the same. My mind was blown because I had just found out that kale…
Dark and Light by Hayley Jane & the Wild Women
“This is the best worst time for a retreat,” she said as she arrived at This Wonderful Place for the Wild Woman Retreat. A common thread for many of the women, they were all so grateful that even though they had many obstacles come in their way, they got on their planes or hopped in…
How We Met: Sara Soulman
This weekend was so freakin magical and so normal. I say normal because I believe that magic IS normal. Think of it this way; if when my book How to Rock Your Life was published and everyone I knew was like, “That’s so crazy that you wrote a book. I didn’t think you had it…
How We Met: The Moe. Story
One day in the summer of 95′ which happened to be the 25th anniversary of the legendary Woodstock Festival, my family hopped in our snazzy white minivan and drove toward Bethel, NY. This was my first taste of festival magic. Naked baby booming hippies were dancing around everywhere reliving their free spirited glory days. Dancing…
How We Met: The Hayley Jane Story
This How We Met series has been so fun. Your responses to how I met Ryan Montbleau were really entertaining to read and I loved how much he’s a part of so many of your lives (whether you know him personally or love his music). If you missed it and you’d like to read it,…
To the woman who laughed at me for being different…
“You’re very ummmmmmm different?” she said to me laughing. I responded confidently, “I agree!” A woman said this to me last week while I was cruising the racks at an upscale resale shop in New York City. Even though I took it as a compliment, she didn’t mean it that way. She was eluding to the…
How We Met: The Ryan Montbleau Story
Happy Thursday music lovers!!! I love so many things about our live music scene that go way beyond the music. One of those things is how intertwined we are and how we all pretty much have six degrees of separation or less from the musicians we see on stage. This not so secret society of…
