A health and wellness lifestyle workshop :)

Camille is a wonderful writer. She tells her story as a recent college grad making her way into adulthood. Her reflections are funny, poignant and good reading for anyone who has a kid in their early 20s!

Good Humor

Humor essays, interviews with Funny AF Women and comedy videos from an empty nester mom still waiting for her kids to text her back.

I love CK, her humor and point of view. Funny AF women are what I live for and she once acted in a movie called "frankenhooker." What more can anyone want?
