I’m so excited to be part of the launch team for @jenhatmaker’s newest gift to readers everywhere! #FeedThesePeople is educational AND hilarious. Made the most absurdly delicious grilled cheese sandwiches for lunch today. Joy in our kitchens, courtesy of Jen. Preorder now!

For this new Fierce series, we dreamed up the fiercest, freest, most full of fire cast of guests we could imagine. We said: “Who embodies this? Who has taught us this?” What follows the next 6 weeks are truly some of the greats, starting w/ @GlennonDoyle
