Over the past year I’ve had some insanely busy work periods. I’ve planned conferences, organized client events, held fundraisers, and managed company-wide programs, sometimes all in the same week. Add frequent travel on top of this, plus, like, three small humans, and things have been nuts. Sometimes it feels like I go-go-go until I fall…
Earlier this week I had a quick overnight trip to Houston. For the most part it was routine–arrived late afternoon, went to an evening work dinner, came back to the hotel, washed my face, changed into my jammies, texted with the Home Warrior, turned on my white noise, and went to sleep. Suddenly I was…

What are the best nude shoes for business travel? And what does “nude” mean anyway? Reader E asks… I need shoes for business travel (I’m traveling a lot now!) and I see you recommend nude shoes all of the time. It always makes me think of old-fashioned nurses’ shoes! Can you send me some other…
Is it possible to bring suits on a business trip without getting them wrinkled? Reader B asks…. Help RW! I have to wear suits every day on my work trips but can’t figure out how to pack them without wrinkling. Do you have any suggestions? A few wrinkles may be inevitable, but there are definitely…
You may think that if you want to read books on your Kindle, Nook, or iPad you have to pay the same price you would pay for a physical book. It’s not true! There are plenty of discounted ebooks, but today I want to talk about how easy it is to borrow ebooks for free…
One of the questions I get all the time is how to compress a full makeup routine into a bag small enough for travel. Honestly, some people don’t. They bring their full makeup bag on every trip, and save room in the suitcase other ways. That is certainly one way to do it, but it’s…
