When You Don’t Feel Like It Anymore

The World We Need with Michelle Malanca Frey ·

2025/11/03

We all go through times we don't feel like doing things anymore. The hard part is knowing when it’s time to quit and when it’s just hard, or inconvenient, or takes more effort than we feel that we can give. When do we just not feel like it versus when we need to quit? How do we keep going when things take work?

They Called Me The Frog Lady

The 6-story jail had a rundown, Art Deco façade. On the inside, in addition to massive overcrowding, sewage leaked, drinking water was unsafe, and air vents were full of asbestos. The heaters and radiators were broken, as were most of the dozens of windows facing the cold air coming off the Pacific. Inmates used to stuff toilet paper into the gaps in the windows to block the wind. The jail was rife with violence, with petty thieves housed in the same areas as violent offenders and gang members

There are bills to pay. People want things from you, need them from you. But you can’t be there for them, you can’t be there for yourself,

Love Calls Us to Action

The World We Need with Michelle Malanca Frey ·

2025/08/19

Why we love reunions

The World We Need with Michelle Malanca Frey ·

2025/08/18

I crashed a high school reunion last weekend. I not only didn’t go to that school, I’ve never even been to that town.For background, I have not been and would not go to my own high school reunion.

I became good friends with a few of them and hung
