PULL UP A CHAIR, has anybody else thought this?! Intuitive eating has seemingly *vanished* overnight. Nobody is talking about it anymore. Why? What happened? Let's unpack!!

This week's episode is a chill, at-home catch-up - the kind where I'm processing life out loud and letting the conversation go where it wants to go. I share about my quick overnight trip to D.C. to join a lobbying mission, what it feels like to join these inspiring groups and go to the White House, and why asking ourselves "ok, what can I do?" has become a helpful antidote to all the overwhelm that comes with watching the news lately. I'm catching you guys up on what Sonny's been up to, including a dramatic moment where he made a sign that said "only Dad is allowed in", and talking about weekend plans that include line dancing. Plus a "Lately I've Been.." check-in: the cravings, the things I'm rethinking, what's making me laugh, and some products I've been loving lately. No big agenda, just day to day things and some honest reflections! This episode is brought to you by Amazon Pharmacy.

Everything will work out in the end"; Truth: The world is imploding because evil has remained unchallenged and evil-doers coddled; Choice: Teaching, living, giving goodness, speaking up against the miscreants who spit in the face of God and God's Torah. Deepening one's learning and exercising 'faith-muscles' until mitzvot and engagement become, respectively, a second skin. Pull Up a Chair 15JAN2025 - PODCAST
