Housewives is can be a balm for the soul, a stop gap from the world outside, bad marriage contraception, and more. And the greater Bravo community is so often a connective thread. After sharing resources in the show notes from Mutual Aid LA, and a creator fundraiser on IG to support firefighter heroes, Sarah takes a moment to escape to Salt Lake. A land of not so secret recording, after show followups that make everything even more complicated, and continued fascination about Britani and Bronwyn. Sarah mentions it all (ok, 60%). Sending love to all those impacted in the LA wildfires, a time to come together, listen, and grieve, and also say Britani is a documentary filmmaker awaiting a "what on earth will she did next" EGOT - it's Andy's Girls, Episode 628!

SUPPORT THOSE IMPACTED BY THE LA WILDFIRES. The Mutual Aid Los Angeles Network (MALAN) has also compiled a spreadsheet of businesses and community organizations that are providing and/or requesting assistance, whether you’re looking to help or need it yourself: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1KMk34XY5dsvVJjAoD2mQUVHYU_Ib6COz6jcGH5uJWDY/htmlview?gid=0#gid=0

Highlighted Organizations Supporting Civilians in Israel and Gaza:

Women Wage Peace: Women Wage Peace is the largest grassroots peace movement in Israel whose purpose is to promote a political agreement, involving women in the process. Today the movement has more than 44,000 members. https://www.womenwagepeace.org.il/en/

NewGround: a Muslim-Jewish Partnership for Change: NewGround envisions an America where Muslims and Jews and others, both secular and religious, model lasting partnerships and engagement in authentic communication and mutual cooperation.

Standing Together: Standing Together  is a progressive grassroots movement mobilizing Jewish and Palestinian citizens of Israel against the occupation and for peace, equality, and social justice. We know that the majority have far more in common than that which sets us apart and only a tiny minority benefits from the status quo. The future that we want — peace and independence for Israelis and Palestinians, full equality for everyone in this land, and true social, economic, and environmental justice — is possible. To achieve this future, we must stand together as a united front: Jewish and Palestinian, secular and religious, Mizrahi and Ashkenazi, rural and urban, and people of all genders and sexual orientations. As the largest Jewish-Arab grassroots movement in Israel, we are committed to creating an alternative to our existing reality and building the political strength to make this transformation possible. https://www.standing-together.org/en

Israel Trauma Coalition: The Israel Trauma Coalition provides a holistic-collaborative approach that includes knowledge, tools and resources for optimal emergency preparedness, professional support, focused on the rapid recovery of the individual, community and strengthening national resilience. https://israeltraumacoalition.org/en/

Palestine Children's Relief Fund (PCRF): PCRF is the primary humanitarian organization in Palestine, delivering crucial and life-saving medical relief and humanitarian aid where it is needed most. Access to essential resources like food, clean water, and healthcare is severely limited. Urgent action is needed.
