This week, we chatted with Melinda Strauss, an amazing Modern Orthodox health coach, podcaster, influencer, and business coach who turned her passion for food blogging into a thriving career. She grew up in Seattle and currently lives in New York with her husband and family. We kick off the episode chatting about what being modern Orthodox even means, a topic that Melinda regularly explains to her audience on Tik Tok. Like Jori and Abby, Melinda also attended Yeshiva University's Stern College, and told us all her NYC college experience. She went on to tell us about how she got into food blogging and health coaching in the first place. As a current health coach at OPTAVIA, she explains how the program works for participants. She's all about planning in advance when it comes to your health journey. She shares her favorite Shabbat food and guilty pleasure snacks, which obviously had us drooling. She gave us more insight into her Tik Tok account, where she educates her followers about antisemitism and modern Orrhodox Judaism. Both Jews and non-Jews alike have a whole lot of questions, and Melinda is thrilled to answer them. Finally, she explains how she balances everything along with being a mom. She claims that she's not always the perfect mom, but she regularly works on communication and compromise with her children.

Devo and I met for the first time #IRL at Melinda Strauss's Jewish Food Media Expo; a byproduct of the Kosherfest week of kosher. Since its inauguration in 1989, (32nd year) Kosherfest has shaped not just the Kosher food marketing scene, but the food scene as a whole. From a business perspective, brands realize the buying power and safety that a kosher certification status represents. This is all spearheaded by the founder, Mr. Menachem Lubinsky, with who we are fortunate to be joined tonight. -Bit about your background in marketing -What you would tell your younger self/what hold true in the industry now versus what you were schooled -What made you found Kosherfest -Lessons along the way, can be "learned the hard way/hindsight is 20/20 -Projections for the future business/Kosher One of your biggest business struggles and how overcoming it shaped your business acumen/Emunah and of course, we end off with some golden tea light nuggets. #Tealights #Kosherfest #season2
