"Your relationship success has nothing to do with your partner, it’s really all about you and working on yourself...Until you do that you’ll always fall in love with the same kind of person.”
Neil Strauss has an enviable list of accomplishments. A nine time best-selling author, he got his start as a music critic writing for The New York Times and Rolling Stone; he has toured with and written about heavy metal bands, and penned books with some of the greatest rock stars.

Laverne Cox remembers her first red carpet experience. It was 2005 and she was on the rug at the Tribecca Film Festival, standing before the paparazzi. “I was in acting school and they gave some of the students the chance to walk the carpet,” she recalls. “Someone told me to pose in their direction.” She vogued for the lens and then the photographer said, “Thanks, I’m just testing my camera.”

I caught up with my old co-workers while sipping La Croix and watched my friends get tipsy on comp drinks. Seated at the bar enjoying a chat, we were completely oblivious to the circus around us. I had seen so many sets of breasts, bot...

When the FDA approved Botox for cosmetic purposes 13 years ago, I knew that I wanted to have it.
