I already follow one of the creators on Instagram, but I’m really loving the perspectives of both hosts. Also, their guests thus far have been incredibly interesting and inspiring (and I don’t say that flippantly—they are really thoughtful and interview worthy from my perspective. I totally see how they came up with ... more

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Ep. 35: Alicia Rose is giving menopause the punk rock treatment it needs
Q: What inspired the Menopunks documentary and why give menopause a punk voice?
Alicia explains that intersecting punk and science helps cut through stigma and misinformation, making menopause something relatable and empowering rather than something to be sold or hidden, especially for Gen X women who have faced marketing-driven narratives.
Ep. 31: From big tech and law to gold and clay: Two founders on creativity, identity, and the courage to pivot
Q: Subi, how did you find your way from big tech to jewelry design?
It was about feeling unfulfilled despite success in tech; I had an art background and realized I could tell stories through jewelry that resonate with personal connections.
Ep. 31: From big tech and law to gold and clay: Two founders on creativity, identity, and the courage to pivot
Q: Erin, how did you decide to focus on a creative career, and what kind of identity shift did that create, and did it feel vulnerable?
It felt incredibly vulnerable. I had invested a lot of time in my law career, letting go was hard, but it was about revisiting an authentic self, and it became transformative.
Ep. 33: Dress for the Life You're Actually Living
Q: How do you recommend people approach special events?
Jennine suggests having versatile pieces in your wardrobe that can be styled for events instead of buying something new each time, promoting a functional wardrobe.
