Fishing Brings Families Together

  Photo by Olof Nyman Some of my favorite memories from my youth, are times I spent with my family at the shore.  Every year, I looked forward to our annual two week trip.  One of the activities that I most looked forward to, was fishing.  There was always something special about fishing.  I remember going to the fishing store   to pick out our bait, and walking down to the bay with my siblings, and standing on the shore line for hours, trying to catch the big one.  We often would snag up something unusual, like an eel or stingray.  I once even caught a snapping turtle.  Thank goodness there were adults around to help. I laugh and smile when I think of all of the good times we had. When I became a mom, one of the things that was important to me, was sharing some of my favorite activities with my son.  One day I decided to take him fishing at our local brook.  I took him to pick out a child fishing rod, some worms, a net and a b...

A Different Narrative Around Healthy Habits and Body Image in the Household

  If you keep falling off the wagon, it’s time to find a different mode of transportation! Growing up as a South Asian teen in the 90s, Sonia Jhas  felt immense pressure to look and act a certain way in order to exceed her family’s expectations. Insidious trends like “Heroin Chic” pushed her into dangerous levels of deprivation and exercise to the point where she says she would “whittle myself down to a size triple-zero to look like the ultra-thin models.” Now as an award winning mindset and wellness expert, certified physical trainer, nutrition specialist, and author of the new book, I’ll Start Again Tomorrow (And Other Lies I’ve Told Myself) , Sonia Jhas is breaking the cycle of unrealistic expectations and family pressures to have healthy discussions in the home around weight loss and mindset that sets children up for success. She was recently seen on Fox32 Chicago talking to viewers about “ How to instill healthy eating habits in your children .” Unpacking raw pers...

His Only Son: Coming to Select Theaters 3.31.23

 Disclosure: Many thanks to Angel Studios for providing a sample of the product for this review. Opinions are 100% my own. Angel Studios, who brought you THE CHOSEN, is releasing a new film, HIS ONLY SON, which is a film about Abraham and Isaac! His Only Son recounts one of the most controversial moments in the Old Testament—when Abraham was commanded by God to sacrifice his son Isaac on the mountain of Moriah. While traveling to the place of the sacrifice, alongside Isaac and two servants, Abraham is flooded with vivid memories from the years he and Sarah spent longing for the son they were promised—the son he must now lay upon the altar. This is such a powerful in depth reenactment of the story of Abraham and Sara, and Abraham’s strong faith.  It is very moving.  This is a beautiful story for the Easter season. I was so overcome with emotion while watching this movie and seeing the deep love Abraham had for God. Buy tickets today to see HIS ONLY SON in theaters March 31...
