I am a former editor-in-chief turned journalist (Glamour, Fitness, New York Times, Course Hero, Salesforce) who’s always been interested in mental health. Over the years, I have paired my women’s health knowledge with my passion for understanding business. Today, I write for Forbes and other news outlets on the role of disability and mental health in the workplace. My first book, The Elephant in the Playroom, covers how families choose to raise children with disabilities. Ironically, it wasn’t until my son was diagnosed that I realized we were genetic copies of each other, but growing up in the ‘80s, I was never diagnosed.
