ABOUT TOVA

Tova began her professional life as an employment lawyer. After two years in law, she did what all sensible people do and moved to the UK in 2006 to pursue a career in the performing arts.

She went on to write, act, and produce several short films and a TV pilot before launching her blog, My Thoughts About Stuff, in 2015. What started as a creative outlet to process the chaos of motherhood quickly became something much bigger. In less than three years, Tova’s blunt, funny, and painfully honest writing and videos about motherhood, marriage, sex, and all things taboo turned her into an internet sensation.

Her viral online series Mom Life Crisis, documenting her own midlife awakening, resonated with millions of women around the world and was later developed into a documentary film available on Amazon Prime Video.

In 2019, Tova released her first book, Fcked at 40: Life Beyond Suburbia, Monogamy and Stretch Marks*, a bold, funny exploration of identity, desire, and life beyond the boxes society puts women in. Her second book, You Did What? (2021), brought together hilarious and outrageous confessions from people around the world. In 2023, she published A Survival Guide to Your 40s with Wonderbly - a smart, reassuring, and humorous companion covering everything from hormones and friendships to money and reinvention. And in 2025 she published her forth book GOOD GIRLS GOSSIP.

Alongside her writing and digital work, Tova is a hugely successful live performer. She has completed three sell-out tours with three different shows across the UK, the US, and Europe, and in 2026 she will return to Europe with a brand-new show promoted by Live Nation.

Tova also runs Female Empowerment Retreats in the Algarve - immersive experiences where women from around the world come together to reconnect, tackle shame, build confidence at any age or size, and form lasting friendships and is set to host her first all female festival in Portugal in May 2026.

Through her books, live performances, podcasting, and viral digital content, Tova uses comedy to talk about feminism, women’s rights, sex, ageing, and identity - championing gender equality while making people laugh (often uncomfortably).

Tova is continuing to write, perform, and slightly disturb the peace - professionally.
