  • Thoughtful conversations

    I really enjoy the thoughtful conversations Monica has with her guests. She is a compassionate listener and makes space for folks to tell their own story. One thing I’m still trying to figure out is if this podcast is supposed to be part of the press tour circuit or if Monica is just on an exploratory journey, picking up people along the way.

  • Amazing podcast

    I discovered Reclaiming sometime last year and it quickly became one of my favorite podcasts. I really enjoy the conversations Monica has with each guest. I’m slowly making my way through episodes I have not yet listened to. Conversations are always thoughtful, funny and a really great listen. Monica is a great interviewer. What makes this podcast special, IMHO, is how vulnerable and real Monica is. Makes my commute to work so much better every week.

    It’s terrible that the mistake you made was judged so harshly by society when all of us do things in our twenties that we would never want put out for all to see. Remember those who judged you are not worthy of your time.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Esther Perel
Q: Can you say a little bit more about attention infidelity?
Perel describes attention infidelity as one partner becoming absorbed in a digital world, disrupting the couple's connection. Distracted attention can leave the other person feeling unheard and disconnected.
Esther Perel
Q: What was kind of the question that you kept asking yourself as a result of what happened in 98 that led to all of that?
Perel was exploring sexuality in America and the contrast between the social acceptance of divorce and the condemnation of infidelity. She became interested in how love and desire relate and conflict, and why couples may love each other while having no sex.
Sharon McMahon
Q: How did your online community and charitable fundraising begin?
During the pandemic, McMahon shared an idea for pooling small contributions to help people. The first fundraiser quickly raised $14,000, then expanded into larger efforts, including fundraisers for Undo Medical Debt that have helped eliminate more than $300 million in medical debt.
Sharon McMahon
Q: How did you become known as America's Government Teacher?
During the 2020 election, McMahon saw misinformation online and began making short videos explaining how government and elections work. Her videos gained attention after January 6, 2021, and the label spread through news coverage and social media.
Dr. Elisa Port
Q: Is there one myth about breast cancer you would like to bust?
Port says mammograms save lives and remain the best general screening test, though some patients may need additional imaging. She also says needle biopsies do not spread cancer and can spare patients more invasive procedures.
