Reflecting with Gratitude on a Year of Jewish Conversations and Community

By

As we enter 5785 and prepare for Sukkot, I reflect on a year of meaningful conversations sharing my memoir, Brave-ish: One Breakup, Six Continents, and Feeling Fearless After Fifty.

These experiences reinforce the importance of connection within the Jewish community as we celebrate this season of harvest and new beginnings.
