In this week's episode, Utah's First Lady Abby Cox is joined by friends from the Emerald Hills Institute to talk about what Ramadan means to them, their experiences with honoring Ramadan during school, and various ways that Utah has been a welcoming place for Muslim traditions and a few ways that the state can be more inclusive.

We also talk about why it's so important to share our cultural and religous experiences to better understand all of Utah's amazing communities, as well as how some of the biggest struggles as a parent are universal.

Lastly, we dive into some of our favorite service projects that we've done throughout the state.
