YOU: The Owner's Manual

There is perhaps no more common life event than becoming a widow. Two thousand eight hundred women become widows every day. That’s one million widows a year. Our book, which we're excited to share with you, offers a unique perspective on widowhood. It's a collection of our personal experiences as widows, along with the stories of widows we've surveyed and interviewed. These stories cover a wide range of topics, from financial challenges to the importance of self-care, and we also provide practical advice on pre-planning financial and legal needs, protecting against 'brain fog,' and supporting widows through intentional friendships.

We all know that messes (both physical & mental) can feel incredibly overwhelming making it hard to create space in your life for the things that really matter. Enter Tyler Moore: a school teacher, husband and father of three (who all share a tiny but very tidy apartment in NYC) known as “Tidy Dad” on Instagram. 

In his first book, TIDY UP YOUR LIFE: Rethinking How to Organize, Declutter, and Make Space for What Matters Most (1/14) Moore offers not only practical, authentic tidying/organization tips, but just as important, ways to bring focus to your life and address the mental clutter than can happen as well.

Cancer-fighting implant shows promise in treating melanoma, pancreatic and colorectal tumors. Rice-led study serves as foundation for FDA investigational new drug application and emerging new company to launch from RBL LLC. Veiseh’s team at Rice University has created an implant that functions like a “cytokine factory,” delivering IL-12 — a powerful immune-stimulating molecule — directly into the tumor environment. This approach boosts the body’s ability to fight cancer while avoiding the severe side effects usually associated with systemic IL-12 therapy.

When we celebrate the New Year in 2025, we are also marking a quarter century into the new millennium. We often think it's going terribly, but is it really? How has the past quarter-century set us up for the next 75 years?

In THE BRIGHT SIDE: How Optimists Change the World, and How You Can Be One (on sale January 7th) Dr. Sumit Paul-Choudhury—former editor-in-chief of The New Scientist—provides an impassioned defense of optimism as a catalyst for change and declares it a moral imperative. He can help put the past 25 years in perspective as we look toward the future.

Per Sumit, submitting to fear is easy. Optimism, though, in the face of the unknown—a willingness to accept and confront uncertainty—is the definition of true moral courage. Realism, for all the good press it receives, often leads to passivity and surrender. (See below signature for other topics).

This thought-provoking deep-dive into the roots and implications of optimism drops Jan 7th, after the New Year and before the inauguration—a perfect time to measure our reserves of optimism and look back on all that we have accomplished. In THE BRIGHT SIDE¸ Sumit offers a corrective to the tidal wave of pessimism that regularly rises up to engulf us all. (See below for other topic ideas).

You know I've been in this sleep game for a while now, right? Well, I'm working on this new book, "Sleep, Drink, Breathe: Wellness is too F*cking Complicated," and it's challenging a lot of what we think we know about health.

Here's the deal: sleep isn't just important - it's the cornerstone of wellness. Get this right, and a lot of other health stuff falls into place. But we're in a serious sleep crisis. Most adults are getting crap sleep, and it's wrecking their health in ways they don't even realize.

Even Volleyball player and three time Olympic gold medal winner Kerri Walsh Jennings admits that “Sleep could be the hardest thing to accomplish on my to-do list, but it always makes a difference.”

Remember when I told you about chronotypes? Bears, Lions, Wolves, and Dolphins? Knowing which one you are is like having a cheat code for better sleep and health. It's not just cool trivia - it can be a total game-changer.

I've got some sleep hacks that'll surprise you too. Like, that morning coffee? You're probably drinking it at the wrong time. And don't get me started on bedroom temperature - it could be messing with your sleep big time.

Here's what kills me: we've made wellness so damn complicated. Everyone's obsessing over green juices and cold plunges, but they're missing the basics. Sleep, hydration, breathing - get these right, and you're golden.

I've been talking about this stuff on TV, in books, you name it. I know how to break it down so people actually get it and can use it.

What do you think? Want to dive deeper into this? We could do something cool with it. Maybe I could even figure out your chronotype - trust me, it's eye-opening.

Let me know if you want to chat more and we can brainstorm. You can download my press kit here and you can check out the trailer here.
