#83 Kernels of Trauma feat. Nikkole Anjuli

Content warning: this episode contains discussions about suicide/suicidal ideation

Alternate title: Christina learns about Judaism and gets real existential! Writer Nikkole Anjuli calls in to talk about chronic pain, the intersection between physical and mental disability, suicide, psychedelics, and becoming a Jew during COVID. Christina brings up the issue of stagnancy in self-improvement and why it’s not necessarily bad. Catch all this plus a Gandalf surprise in this extra spicy episode of Pickles and Vodka!
