Hi! I’m Sasha 

I’m the author of the cult favorite Quirkyalone: A Manifesto for Uncompromising Romantics (Harper SanFrancisco) and To-Do List: From Buying Milk to Finding a Soul Mate, What Our Lists Reveal About Us (Simon & Schuster). My work has been featured on CNN, in the New York Times, NPR, the London Guardian, Vogue and more.

Since 2000, I’ve been helping women and men build self-worth and shed societal baggage to live life on their own terms. Freedom, love, + self-love: that’s what I’m all about. Sign up for my newsletter and you’ll get access to the world-famous quiz to determine if you are a quirkyalone or quirkytogether. You’ll also get my blog posts on how to be true to yourself and live your life with love and adventure at any age.
