Lately, she has been offering monthly seminars at THE SOHO HOUSE in New York City where she lives. She now has her own SIRIUS radio show called "Be Happy Dammit". She also gives seminars nationally (at places like NAWBO, Gen Art, and Media Bistro) and internationally (in Canada, Germany, and elsewhere).

She writes a popular career column for amnY, one of New York's largest newspapers, called "The 1 Minute Career Therapist".

She has twenty-nine books, five TV development deals, two film deals, and one perfume named "Unavailable:it's more than a perfume, it's a philosophy."

She is most known for creating a new breed of highly graphic and feisty self-help books — like her best sellers "How To Be Happy, Dammit" and "How To Succeed in Business Without a Penis" — self-help books that she herself describes as being for "people who would never be caught dead reading self help books" or "self help books you can give as a gift and not get slapped because they look kinda cool".
