Salt, kava, and a 1-minute war… yep, that happened 😄🌴
|
Hey Reader, We covered a lot this week — and honestly, had some really great conversations. Let me catch you up… 🧂 Monday — A Little Salty HistoryI went down a bit of a history rabbit hole and talked all about the impact salt had on the Key West economy. It’s one of those things you don’t really think about… but it played a huge role in the early days of the island. 👉 🧂 Watch the video here 🌿 Then… I Learned All About KavaI had a great chat with Morgan Smith from Kalm With Kava — and I’ll be honest, I went in knowing very little. We talked about what kava is, what it isn’t, and why so many people are curious about it right now. 👉 🌿 Watch the interview here Want to dive deeper? 📚 And Then… Back to 1970’s Key WestI also sat down with William McKeen, author of Mile Marker Zero — our April book club pick. Such a fun conversation about what Key West was really like in the 1970s — a little wild, a little weird, and completely fascinating. 👉 📺 Watch the interview here Want to check out the book? 💬 Quick Question for You…Have you been checking out the daily questions on my Facebook page?
