Send a textA Valentine's dinner became a live case study the moment the conversation turned into a monologue and the questions never came. We walked in soft and hopeful, walked out with notes on power, presence, and why clarity will always beat performed depth. From the first five minutes—where business, routines, and leadership philosophies took the spotlight—to the therapist voice cameo and the “Do you see a therapist?” probe, we unpack how subtle postures create big imbalances and how to reset the dynamic without losing your center.We explore a core mindset shift: life feels “confusing and complicated” when we dodge honesty and act out of alignment, but it becomes clear when we know who we are and what we're working toward. Not easy, but clear. That lens reframes dating decisions into simple gates: does this bring me peace, is this aligned, is this for me. Along the way, we examine the signals that matter—curiosity over competition, warmth over labels, coherence over performance—and how they show up in small moments, like a gentrified spin on a beloved dish or a gift that prioritizes optics over intimacy.The contradictions hit hardest when activism talk met an appetizer that erased its roots. We connect those dots to a bigger truth: values are verified by choices, not speeches. And yes, we tell the story of luxury and re-gifting meeting in one Montclair dust bag and what that reveals about impressiveness versus intimacy. The night wasn't a failure; it was data. We close with a clear set of takeaways: if someone debates your field, they're reaching for power; if they analyze instead of ask, they're not present; if they perform depth, insecurity is steering. This year, we're not dating potential or performances—we're dating peace.If this resonates, share it with a friend who's raising their standard, subscribe for more sharp, heart-forward stories, and leave a review with your top non-negotiable for dating with clarity.Support the show

Have you ever wondered if your love for music and voice could turn into a thriving private practice? Today's guest shows us it's possible—and how to do it while keeping flexibility and control over your life.Joining me is Rachel Goldenberg, a speech-language pathologist, clinical voice specialist, and singing teacher based in Montclair, New Jersey. Rachel's private practice, My Inspired Voice, combines her passion for singing with her expertise in voice therapy, helping clients with everything from vocal health to respiratory challenges.In this episode, Rachel shares her journey from opera-obsessed child to clinical voice expert, how she built a private practice that fits her family and lifestyle, and her tips for anyone ready to take the leap into private practice.Rachel's love for music started early. She began piano lessons at 7 and memorized operas like Carmen and Tosca by age 12, performing them dramatically in her living room. She went on to study at Westminster Choir College in Princeton, New Jersey, where she fell in love with the science of the voice, learning from pioneers in vocal pedagogy.Her career took her through teaching, research on singing and respiratory health, and work with clients with lung disease in Canada. Along the way, she realized that to help clients fully, she needed to expand her skills, which led her to pursue speech-language pathology. Now, her dissertation focused on the use of singing lessons as an adjunctive airway clearance technique for adult cystic fibrosis patients.Through all these experiences, Rachel's passion for voice never wavered—but she also learned the importance of adaptability, continuous learning, and following the right opportunities when they appear.In Today's Episode, We Discuss:How her passion for singing led her into voice therapyWhat it was like to return to grad school during COVIDHow she built her private practice and referral networkWhy flexibility has been essential for her familyWith her practice, Rachel has full control over her schedule, enabling her to see clients during traditional hours, early mornings, or late evenings, while still making time for her children and other priorities. Her story is a perfect example of how passion, expertise, and a willingness to take the leap can create a private practice that's both fulfilling and flexible. Whether you're interested in voice, pediatrics, or another specialty, her journey shows that with the right mindset, mentorship, and action, you can build a practice that fits your life and allows you to thrive both professionally and personally.Ready to take control of your career and start your own private practice—just like Rachel did? The Start Your Private Practice Program gives you the roadmap, resources, and support to get started.

Children wearing helmets and backpacks gathered with their parents in Montclair, New Jersey, for a group bicycle ride to two local elementary schools. Volunteers in orange safety vests made sure everyone assembled in a neighborhood shopping area was ready before the riders set off on their 5-mile “bike bus” route. Every few blocks, more adults and kids on bikes joined in. Eventually, the group grew to over 350 people. Older students chatted with friends, while younger ones focused on pedaling. Cars along the way stopped to let the long line of cyclists pass. Pupils and parents peeled off toward the first school before the remainder reached the group's final stop. It's a familiar scene in Montclair. For the past three years, what began as a handful of parents hoping to encourage their kids to bike to school has grown into a weekly ritual for both the township of about 40,000 residents and many of its families. “It was so fun,” second grader Gigi Drucker, 7, said upon arriving at Nishuane Elementary School. “The best way to get to school is by bike because it gives you more exercise. It's healthier for the Earth,” she added. But traveling to school on two wheels isn't just for fun, according to organizer Jessica Tillyer, whose children are 6 and 8 years old. She believes that biking together each week helps promote healthy habits for the children and strengthens the sense of community among parents. The bike bus movement isn't new. Hundreds of them exist throughout the U.S. and Europe, as well as in Australia, Brazil, India, Indonesia, and Israel, according to Bike Bus World, a nonprofit organization that promotes and provides information about bike buses. Co-founder Sam Balto, who established a bike bus in Portland, Oregon, more than three years ago, said interest has grown so much that he offers free coaching calls to help others launch their own. He estimates there are more than 400 routes worldwide, and the number continues to grow. “Children and families are craving community and physical activity and being outdoors,” Balto said.

New Jersey Governor-Elect Mikie Sherrill joins Farnoosh for a candid conversation about the rising cost of living, the future of public schools, health care, taxes, and why politics and personal finance are inseparable.Sherrill, a former Navy helicopter pilot, federal prosecutor, and three-term congresswoman, recently won the governor's race in a decisive victory that coincided with significant Democratic gains nationwide. In this episode, she breaks down what state leaders can actually do to make life more affordable for families, from freezing utility rates to improving school funding to modernizing energy infrastructure.Farnoosh also gives listeners a heads-up: the first part of this interview touches on a hyper-local school budget crisis in her hometown of Montclair, NJ. But this story isn't unique. Across America, school districts are confronting rising costs, shrinking state support, and — in some cases — financial mismanagement. The questions Montclair is wrestling with (“Raise taxes or accept restrictive state aid?”) are the same questions communities everywhere are facing.In this wide-ranging conversation, Sherrill discusses:Why public-school funding is cracking nationwideThe real barriers to affordable health care at the state levelHow utility-rate freezes would work — and what critics get wrongThe affordability crisis squeezing middle-class familiesWhat her election signals about the national political landscaOriginally recorded for Farnoosh's local podcast The Montclair Pod, this expanded So Money release provides a rare look at how a new governor thinks about money, power, and the policies that shape our financial lives.

I'll be on stage with her at The Rec Room at Lackawanna Plaza, and tickets are available at: SunlightTax.com/MontclairIn today's conversation, Hannah and I dig into so much helpful ground, including:The big goal behind Taxes for Humans and why she believes tax education is actually a form of empowerment.The limiting beliefs and shame traps so many freelancers carry around taxes — and how to break them.Her beautifully simple three-system approach to staying organized (receipts, tax docs, and bookkeeping — yes, they're different).What to do if you can't pay your tax bill, how audits actually work, and why the IRS is often far less scary than we've been taught.

Send us a textHere's a conversation with a lifelong civic servant whose roots run from Monterey Park to Pomona and the San Gabriel Valley. With decades in urban planning and community development, he brings a ground-level view of how cities actually work—housing, zoning, economic development, schools, and the partnerships that make neighborhoods thrive. He currently serves on the Pomona City Council and has spent years volunteering on youth, planning, and education boards that shape real outcomes for families.We trace his path from Cal Poly Pomona's urban and regional planning program to roles in Claremont and Montclair, including Director of Community Development. Along the way, he bridged policy and practice: general plans, code enforcement, downtown revitalization, and the day-to-day tradeoffs between growth, character, and affordability. His private-sector experience adds a practical lens on budgets, operations, and service that complements public service.Community impact sits at the heart of his story. From the Pomona Planning Commission and the Pomona Unified School District Board to Habitat for Humanity's design and construction work, he has focused on long-term value—safer streets, stronger schools, and projects that pencil out for residents and businesses. We talk about aligning city hall, neighborhoods, and nonprofits so progress sticks beyond any single term.If you care about how local government shapes quality of life—housing supply, small business corridors, parks, transportation, and civic engagement—this episode is a field guide. Keywords: Pomona City Council, Monterey Park, San Gabriel Valley, Cal Poly Pomona, urban planning, community development, affordable housing, code enforcement, economic development, downtown revitalization, Habitat for Humanity, local government leadership.__________Music CreditsIntroEuphoria in the San Gabriel Valley, Yone OGStingerScarlet Fire (Sting), Otis McDonald, YouTube Audio LibraryOutroEuphoria in the San Gabriel Valley, Yone OG__________________My SGV Podcast:Website: www.mysgv.netNewsletter: Beyond the MicPatreon: MySGV Podcastinfo@sgvmasterkey.com
