At my wedding in 2009, my sister was going on about this #selfhelp book she'd seen on @Oprah. 3 months later, she was dead, killed at one of #TheSecret author's retreats.

If you enjoy my content, you should know that I've now created a Threads account. I am cross posting for now but over time I will spend less and less time here. I cannot tolerate the Anti-Semitism on this app. If you want to stay connected you need to create a Threads account. – at Vaughan, Ontario

So @JeanCBrown & I just recorded a new @SEEKSafely Podcast about THE MASCULINITY BROS, in which we also touch on mouth taping, #Barbie , @yourewrongabout (my current podcast crush/obsession), bro-everything, & I get Jean on the record promising to try veggie bacon. Dropping soon.
Ooh wow, @mssakshinarula makes a beautiful cover! 🤩
