This week Mommash: The Oy & Joy of Family features twos mom devoted not only their own amazing families, but to enriching Jewish family life worldwide through their work for Jewish Federations of North America (JFNA). JFNA Board Chair Julie Platt shares stories of how she nurtured family bonds, personal passions, Jewish commitment, and philanthropic values in her two daughters and three sons (including your Broadway-obsessed kid's favorite star, Ben!), drawing on her Shabbat-observant upbringing as the only Jew in her 671` student class in Wichita, her star turns in the Camp Ramah shows (with Hebrew lyrics still memorized decades later), and putting her values into action through volunteer leadership across the Jewish world. Bonus guest, Broward Federation CEO Audra Berg, mom of two teen sons, shares her experiences working at Federation and bringing her kids along for the ride. Plus, cultivating close siblings, perfecting the brisket recipe (while abandoning the quest for the perfect challah), camp as a life changing endeavor, empowering our children through our communal work, moving from Chicago to Boca, handling rejection, rallying around the kid who needs it, and plenty of kvelling!
