Last night I had a dream that I was speaking in front of a large crowd of people and no one was listening. Everyone was shmoozing with their friends and I had zero control of the room. I asked people to quiet down to no avail. Finally, frustrated and embarrassed, I left. The host was really upset that she had organized this whole event and I didn’t even speak.

Last week I flew out to Las Vegas, Nevada to speak for a Jewish group of women on the topic of Jewish unity.

Dear Yarden,

We all watched
We all heard
We all read
We all cried with you, for you, for us
We all know you
We all love you

Last week I went to a play – a very rare occurrence.

Dear Rachel
Like you, my Hebrew name is Rachel.
Like you, I have cried for my children.

Today was my 50th birthday party which I celebrated at JFX with over 250 people. I am so so grateful to have my beloved family surrounding me and my community whom I love so much.

This week I went on a helicopter ride over Lake Erie with my daughter Nomi.
