Apartment and studio dwellers, this one goes out to you.
Christmas is a time to transform your home into a winter wonderland with garlands, snowscapes, wreaths and so much more. For those of that are limited by small space challenges, decorating for the holidays can be a true feat. Not to mention, having to decide whether or not to opt for a tree can really put a damper on the yule tidings. But fear not! Small spaces can provide great opportunities to showcase the Christmas season creatively....

Festive decor can still be lowkey and modern.
Preparing your home for the holidays can be overwhelming even if you are full of holiday cheer. If you want to embellish your home with holiday spirit but want to refrain from going over the top, a minimalist perspective may be just what Santa ordered. Decorations don’t need to be excessive to be showstopping. Approach design with a theme that sings yuletide cheer but doesn’t crowd your space. Here are ten minimalist Christmas decor ideas for anyo...

It was an overcast day when I made my way west to Artist Boat’s HQ to meet with Founder and Executive Director Karla Klay. The drive down Settegast Road is lush with wildlife and greenery, surrounded by wetlands. I stopped a few times to capture videos and photos and to admire the land Klay has helped to preserve. You’ve probably seen Artist Boat’s contributions throughout the island without even knowing it; from the decorated trash barrels during Ocean Day to the tiled seats along the seawal...

The series also stars Anthony Mackie and Stephanie Beatriz.

Where do I begin? I watched Kids for the first time when I was ten-years-old, thanks to late-night HBO and a confusing title. Under the guise of a skateboard flick, Kids takes an unflinching look at the struggles of being a teen in the modern age, including the parts that other films skip over or sanitize, including gritty takes on sex, violence, and even death. (I’m sure I don’t have to mention that this film was way beyond my years and I was extremely confused through most of it.) Kids scar...

Galveston’s past is a treasure trove of colorful tales, where pirates, a thriving red-light district, and a web of criminal activities intersect. Among these stories, one figure stands out—Jean Lafitte, a privateer whose influence on the island in the 19th century remains one of the most fascinating chapters in our island’s history.
Jean Lafitte was no ordinary pirate. Known for his charisma and cunning, he carved out a unique niche on Galveston Island, turning it into a bustling hub of comme...

I healed my childhood trauma with EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) therapy.

Imagine living in a community where reaching 100 years old isn’t the exception but the norm. Where people thrive into old age, not just in years but in health and happiness, these places, known as Blue Zones, have captivated scientists, health enthusiasts, and urban planners worldwide. Blue Zones are regions identified as having the highest concentrations of people who live to 100 years or more and have low rates of chronic diseases. Five Blue Zones are officially recognized: Okinawa, Japan; ...

In 2021, my husband and I packed up our belongings in the three-bedroom Dallas house we'd tirelessly selected.
It was a midcentury modern beauty that we'd once called our "forever house" — but here we were, trading it for a one-bedroom apartment in New York City.
This wasn't just any move; it was for my dream job. I had been offered a senior editorial role at a storied media brand, the kind of position that made me feel like every late night, every underpaid internship, and every career setba...
