Looking to pass some time this holiday weekend? American Symphony on @netflix is a must-watch. It follows musician @JonBatiste and wife @suleikajaouad (listen carefully for the @SkidmoreCollege shout-out), as the #Saratoga native battles cancer. Like her memoir, it’s powerful.
Our film “American Symphony” is out at midnight on @netflix worldwide 🙏🏾 and you can listen to “It Never Went Away” everywhere now. Thank you @MattHeineman for telling our story. And grateful to team up with @BarackObama and @MichelleObama’s @HGMedia #AmericanSymphonyNetflix
American Symphony, a film from @HGMedia, is directed by the talented Matthew Heineman and follows the journey of @JonBatiste and @suleikajaouad. It’s an intimate portrait of the healing power of art and love through personal success and private struggles. I hope you’ll check it…

@JonBatiste @JonBatiste please come see us in #KansasCity & bring @suleikajaouad ! There is so much music history/art here!! 💕💛🎗️
Wrote about my fraught, beautiful, painful, celebratory, and ever-changing relationship to my body—and how it affects my work. Thanks to my beautiful friend @suleikajaouad for the opportunity.
In this week's newsletter, I wrote about the body and the conflicted relationship I have with mine—how I viewed it as a burden, how all that has changed. You'll also find an essay + writing prompt from my sweet friend @TashaYglesias. theisolationjournals.substack.com/p/body-lovebod…
@JonBatiste @suleikajaouad Susu! You look amazing!! I miss Jon on Colbert but try to catch any videos that show up. Long may you love.
My focus word for this year is "reflect" and I have been dragging my heels while wanting to start a journaling habit. So thankful to @suleikajaouad and #Isolationjournals for offering a 30 day journaling project nestled in a supportive community. Just journaled day 1!
@susancain @suleikajaouad I feel the identical aura when reading your and Suleika's writings. Everything goes quiet & it wipes out anxiety for me.
@Verdun_Gal @suleikajaouad I love @suleikajaouad and that is a brilliant idea
Maybe one day @susancain and @suleikajaouad will have a conversation that the rest of us can listen in on. It just struck me that this pairing would be sheer perfection.
