Today on the podcast, I'm reflecting on the last four episodes of the podcast, where I've talked at great length about screens. It's a conversation that isn't going anywhere anytime soon, so it's important that we keep talking about it. But if this conversation a...
Today on the podcast, I'm excited to introduce you to my niece, Sophia and my sister, Molly.Â
In less than a week, Sophia will turn 13 and I wanted to bring her on the podcast so that - for this last episode of the February series on screens - I could stop talking about teenagers in ...
A few weeks ago, Thekla Brumder Ross and I hosted a live panel with last week's guest, Kat Zilka, Founder and Executive Director of Dis/Connect, and two of the high schoolers who are a part of the Dis/Connect movement.Â
It was eye-opening, to say the very least!Â
Today on the podcast,...
Today's guest is the founder and Executive Director of Dis/Connect, a local non-profit attempting to create screen-free spaces for teens and young adults in our community. But let this conversation inspire you, wherever you live, to look for those spaces in your neighborhood.

I love this story of my friend Dorthy and her family, who share a meal, week after week, with the same family. They rotate houses, they cook the food, they share the meal, they put away the dishes and then they go home. It's simple. It's no fuss. No cleaning beforehand. NO gues...
It's been over seven months since I've been on the socials! And it feels GREAT.Â
AND ... also slightly disconnected from reality, from my community and from my creativity. So I'm back in a new way. Or, really, an old-school way. A blog!Â
Sharing this experience and a few oth...
Today I am SO excited to introduce you to the woman who has inspired me for the last two decades (at LEAST). I've been following Andrea Scher from her earliest blogs back in the early 2000s and have learned so much about creativity, wonder, attention and delight by absorbing her tea...
Happy ALL THE Holidays today. A short and sweet episode about a book I recently read with my daughter. Ordinary Mary's Extraordinary Deed, by Emily Pearson. A beautiful book with an extraordinary message about the power of kindness.Â
AND an invitation to join me for a year end reflec...
Today on the show, how can we gather, connect and CREATE through music? With voice, with song and with breath, we are ALL musicians and creators. Today's guest Holly Haebig is Milwaukee's musical maven and talks with me about the power of music to bring us together, into belong...
If you have been longing for connection in a safe and - dare I say - sacred space, filled with people who are authentic, and who bring their full selves, look no further than a circle. And if you've not experience the magic of a good circle, let this episode be your guide on how to ...
What does it mean when you invite dozens of people but only three show? Is bigger always better? Is more really merrier? This week I dive into how we define successful gatherings and whether we should be looking at numbers as the holy grail of a well planned event.Â
Today on the show: a gathering of words.
I'm talking with Milwaukee Poet and interdisciplinary artist, Angela Voras-Hills. She and her co-host Danielle Harms have organized a semi-regular book reading they call Book Drop MKE, inviting local and national authors and poets to read thei...
Today a tiny tip for getting people to share when it's their turn at the table. Use this at the Thanksgiving table, or any table where there's a go-around that requires a creative answer. It's my new favorite trick at any gathering where I'm hoping to spark conversati...
Today, meet my friend Lizzie. Lizzie is super cool. Earlier this year, Lizzie was angry, overwhelmed, disheartened and ________ with the state of the world (fill-in-the-blank with any/all the exhausted words). So Lizzie decided to do something. Lizzie boiled a pot of spaghetti noodles, ...
Call me crazy, but I love name tags. So much, that I've got an entire episode devoted to the art of the name tag: why to use them, when to use them, how to use them, and why I think they are so special.Â
If you are gathering people together this holiday season, even if it's fami...
On today's episode, I'm wondering why we aren't gathering as much these days? I have some ideas, maybe you do too? I also share a simple practice of noticing the ways in which we gather, connect and create on the daily. (and psst: we do it more than we realize, and the sim...

Saskia Inwood woke up one morning, knowing her life would never be the same. The night before, she learned the unimaginable – that the husband she knew in the light of day was a different person after dark. This season unpacks Saskia’s discovery of her husband’s secret life and her fight to bring him to justice. Along the way, we expose a crime that is just coming to light. This is also a story about the myth of the “perfect victim:” who gets believed, who gets doubted, and why. We follow Saskia as she works to reclaim her body, her voice, and her life.
