Hello friends. I've written and re-written this post so many times I've lost count. I started by saying how this was a collective awakening for our country and then realized how rooted in white privilege that comment was and that Black people have been living this collective awakening for over 400 hundred years.

While I do love the final product of a house that smells like fresh baked bread and the joy I feel as I prepare to gift it to [...]

I like to call this the season of OY and JOY! It's a way to embrace my Jewish roots and acknowledge that the holidays are mix of all types of emotions, and all of it is welcome. As I shared in my 5 Tips to Mindfully Manage Holiday Stress, this is an exciting time of [...]
