Friends: Today, my story “What Bobby McIlvaine Left Behind,” which won the 2022 Pulitzer for feature writing, goes on sale in book form under the title “On Grief: Love, Loss, Memory.” I love the look of it. It’s beautifully packaged. 1/5 amazon.com/Grief-Love-Memory…

When I tell young people about the Japanese American internment, they’re not going to grow up to be Japanese.
When I tell kids I’m married to Brad, they don’t suddenly ooze rainbows and turn gay.
They’re just learning about the world and others in it.
See how that works?

Celebrated this guy’s posthumous induction into his H.S. Hall of fame this weekend. I loved getting to learn more about him and introduce him to another generation of Circleville HS students🐅

I work in a school and with teens every day. As parents, we are the ONLY people who can alleviate the pressure on our kids. No one else will. They need to hear we value joy, purpose, health more than bumper stickers. Thank you, @11thHour and the fantastic @SRuhle, for having me!
With college admission season in full swing, kids and parents are on pins and needles waiting for an answer. College counselor @AllisonState warns the only thing that should matter is mental health.
