In this very not topical episode (like always) of Not Your Typical Podcast, Charlene sits down with two people who have been such a positive force for good in the world. They have an honest conversation about motherhood, connecting to Hashem, being in the spotlight and the challenges they go through.   Alexandra Fleksher is an educator, a published writer on Jewish contemporary issues, and an active member of her community in Cleveland, Ohio.
