About

Should Happens is for recovering checklist-followers — the gold-star collectors, chronic box-checkers and accidental partners who did everything they were supposed to and are starting to wonder who wrote the assignment. Expect real talk on money, careers, and relationships, practical tools for unshoulding your decisions, and jokes, because this genre is earnest enough already.

“You are allowed to cross something off the list without doing it.”

Consider this your permission slip. The next one, you write.
