I Didn't March This Year, and I Am Totally Fine With It

For the last 3 years, the Women’s March in Downtown L.A. and the Overeater’s Anonymous Birthday Party have been held on the same day, January 18th. For the last 3 years, I’ve made it a priority to march-- which has been a great experience. For some reason this year it was a tougher decision to make. Something inside of me had shifted and was leaning toward the OA Birthday party so that's where I went and I’m happy I did.

I watched the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade and it restored my faith in America-- well, at least for a day.

But watching the inclusivity and diversity in this year's parade performances and even in the commercials, gave me a lift I was not expecting.
