Got a question you’d like answered?

Several times each week, I answer questions in my “Ask Stacy” videos. You can ask a question simply by hitting “reply” to our email newsletter, just as you would any email in your inbox.

The questions I’m likeliest to answer are those that will interest other readers. In other words, don’t ask for super-specific advice that applies only to you. And if I don’t get to your question, promise not to hate me. I do my best, but I get a lot more questions than I have time to answer.
