My 8-year-old was being bullied, coming home super sad, so my husband and I sat her down and gently encouraged her to stand up for herself and not to let anyone treat her badly. . . So apparently she went and told those girls at school they were bitches.

I often share this story with journalism students when I guest lecture. I wrote an essay in early 2019, hoping to get in published in the NYT Modern Love column. I sent it in, but they passed and I was crushed. I really believed in this essay . . . 🧵

If I see one more headline reading "Drew Carey's Ex-Fiancee" I might implode. Her name was Dr. Amie Harwick, she was a marriage, family & sex therapist, an author, a model, photographer, champion of women and being once tied to Drew Carey is the least interesting thing about her
