This special pilot episode of “613 Books” podcast features host Heather Dean’s interview with Jodi Samuels, the author of the memoir “Chutzpah, Wisdom, and Wine: The Journey of an Unstoppable Woman.”
Jodi talks about why and how she wrote this book, her unique Jewish journey, and her experiences as a mother of a child with Down syndrome. She shares her struggles to find acceptance in the Jewish community and how she became an unstoppable advocate for inclusion and acceptance of children with disabilities. Jodi also shares her advice for aspiring memoir writers in three legendary words.
As the precursor to Season 1 of “613 Books” weekly podcast, this pilot offers up a sneak peek to the podcast that will feature a variety of authors who have published books geared to readers who appreciate authentic Jewish values. And just for fun, Season 1 will also include a weekly visit from a different Jewish “star” who will tell us what book is on their reading table!
