Between Parenthood, Activism, and Identity: We're Back.

Ever been caught in the crossfires of a heated conflict, feeling lost, alone, and overwhelmed? Join us, Lynn and Tony, as we share our personal journey through the recent Israeli-Hamas conflict, an intense period that led us to a necessary digital detox. Let us take you through the emotional rollercoaster we rode, and how we found solace and support in unexpected places - our local community.

Strap in as we deep-dive into compelling discussions on Jewish identity, trauma, and the power of empathy in a conflict-ridden world. We share a poignant journey of a Jewish woman who found her way back to her roots after being raised in a secular home. Discover how she navigates the turbulent waters of social media, the barrage of anti-Semitic messages, and the importance of knowing and sharing her history. Also, as content creators, we tackle our struggles head-on, confronting the backlash for advocating for Jewish people and Israel, highlighting the resilience needed in these challenging times.

But it's not all serious. We promise laughter, love, and a healthy dose of reality as we recount our first year of parenthood, the joy, the sleepless nights, and the indescribable love that a child brings. We also recap our recent trip to London, filled with football, food, and activism - a noteworthy blend of fun, adventure, and advocacy. Prepare to experience life through our lens!
