In the very first episode of Mighty Forces, I sit down with two of my closest friends, Dr. Neda Frayha and Mollie Erickson. We talk about decades-long friendship, memory, anthropology, wellness, apricot jam, and what it really means to give a damn.

Topics:

  • How friendship can sustain itself across decades and distance
  • The quirks of memory — from motherhood brain to COVID brain
  • Motivations, enneagrams, and why we all see the world through different lenses
  • Bringing wellness to unexpected places: from nonprofits to hospitals
  • The anthropology roots that still shape our work and purpose today
  • Ritual, connection, and why beverages matter more than you think
  • Parenting teens, protecting kids’ connection to self, and resisting “shoulds”
  • Quiet vs. loud ways of giving a damn in the world

Resources:

Mighty Forces is produced by Amanda Hirsch and Haley Hatcher. The music of Mighty Forces was written and performed by Jordan Hirsch, aka my wonderful husband.
