She ALSO has a story of how she took back the narrative, changed her focus, and began an impromptu challot delivery service. I loved speaking with Farrah, and I think you will really enjoy this talk.
When life threw curveballs at Farrah Barow, she didn't just catch them; she turned them into challot. In this episode of 'The Lighter Side with Jay', host Jay Casale sits down with Farrah to explore her remarkable story of resilience and hope during an incredibly tough period.

As if that wasn't enough, her daughter had to spend her 17th birthday alone while Farrah stayed by her husband's side. It's a tale filled with heartbreak, anger, and ultimately, a shift towards something unexpectedly beautiful. Farrah's journey is not just about the struggles she faced but also about how she chose to rewrite her narrative.

Throughout the episode, Farrah candidly shares the emotional rollercoaster of hospital visits and the simple joys of delivering homemade challot to friends and strangers alike.

Farrah's story is a testament to the power of community and the importance of finding joy in small moments. As she puts it, 'We need to find ways to make our own light, because the world is a pretty dark place right now'. This episode is a must-listen for anyone seeking a bit of inspiration and a reminder that hope can be found in the most unexpected places.
