It’s a privilege to be able to share these stories of resilience and compassion, to get closer to lived experiences that are so different from our own and yet, in many ways, can feel so similar.
When I started this podcast in October 2019, I had no idea Iโd have the good fortune to meet dozens and dozens of reflective and courageous people and that today And Then Everything Changed would be nearing its hundredth episode.
Here are a few of my upcoming episodes featuring some pretty incredible public figures! Be sure to subscribe to my Podcast on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and Google Podcasts!
Iโm pleased to bring you episode 91 Weed Mom featuring Danielle Simone Brand, author of Weed Mom: The Canna-Curious Woman’s Guide to Healthier Relaxation, Happier Parenting, and Chilling TF Out. Danielle will help shatter any stereotypes you might have about cannabis with her wit, accessibility, and warmth.

Episode 93 will be out on 8/17 and is a 2-part episode featuring Joanna Rakoff, author ofย My Salinger Yearย andย A Fortunate Age! Would you please join me for this deep dive into Joannaโs life, her experience as an author, and how fate brought her and her second husband together?
I will write again next month. Until then, thank you so much for being here, and if you have episode ideas or feedback, please get in touch!

My passion is learning how someone else has lived or survived or has come to understand something about themselves. I love the way storiesโwhether fiction or nonfiction or interviewsโbridge vastly different lived experiences and help connect those who might not otherwise have found each other. Listening to someone tell you their truth and being able to share your own can be the glue that keeps us together and seen and supported.
