Well said - the voice chat, the essay and everything you share is always well said and intentioned! I enjoy being along on your journey at The Love List! You are an exceptional writer and scout of interesting discoveries. Wanted to take the time to encourage you as I know putting yourself out there is not for the faint of heart! XO Cheri

CHERI! So great to hear from you. You have always been so encouraging and your presence is like a big hug. Thank you always, for being a true friend for ten years. Wish I was in Sea Island this summer to hug your neck and kiki. Always great to hear from you.

Teeeeeeewww-tally ❤️❤️

I await the day I walk into David Mallet.. to finally get my Ladies of the Canyon Joni hair cut by DM after we all double over at the raggedy-ass state of the Morosini hair…

….moving to California reaaaalllllly helped me embrace my already blossoming unkempt hair proclivities..

And see the neatly coiffed shiny haired JNG in Ryan’s chair (when we can laugh about how I met him his FIRST day of work… fresh from NOLA 🤣)

You’re the fresh ladylike roar voice we have all needed forever in NYC .. & it’s been a blast 💥 watching you settle in & mix it up

Such a joy ❤️❤️

Oh hahaha I always forget this is “anon” 🤣

The big reveal is .. I’m Deborah Morosini. MD. Lifelong New Yorker/east coaster.. now in LA. I just started to get my kicks on Route 66 (b-day/age)

TOTALLY different work life (“seasoned” <aka OG> leader in genomics 🧬/oncology drug development start-ups) who happens to adore playing dress-up as one of her glorious past-times. Mother of grown up sons.. a 🎥 maker & an environmental scientist/photographer.

Other hint: ask Mario 😘😘😘😘😘
