Smells & Family Dinners

What a Gift Podcast

This week, Jule and Sarra talking about the gifts that make us human. They start by unwrapping the gift of family dinners — from crowded tables and saint trivia to hidden vegetables, corner punishments, and the traditions that shape who we become. Gathering around the table with your family means a lot more than you may think! And then they'll dive into the gift of smells. Scents that transport us back in time, from roast dinners and rain-soaked pavement to old basements, softball gear, coffee, candles, and Christmas mornings. Then it's time for some White Elephant gifts! Boy humor, Stanley Cups, 23&Me, and secret languages we'll decide if we keep, regift, or return! You're not going to want to miss this episode, so pull up to the dinner table and take a deep breath!

About Podcast

Two friends unwrap ordinary life — the chaos, disappointments, spirals, fresh starts, and weird little joys — and practice receiving it as something that might actually be a gift.

We’re not, by nature, the kind of people who look at life’s chaos and chirp, “What a gift!” But maybe we should be. So we’re practicing — one conversation at a time — laughing (and sometimes complaining) our way through the little treats, let-downs, and weird in-between moments that make up life, slowly figuring out how to mean it when we say, “What a gift.”
