  • Are Gen X Women Having the Best Sex?

    Are Gen X Women Having the Best Sex?
    2025/02/20
    Are Gen X women having the best sex of anyone? Let's talk about this week's viral New York Times article about women in their 40s and 50s experiencing an unprecedented sexual renaissance. This is a generation that is rewriting the rules about pleasure, power, and partnership. Perhaps Gen X hit the perfect timing: mature enough to know their worth, young enough to embrace change, and shaped by an analog childhood that fostered authentic connections. From the impact of social media on modern dating to problematic portrayals of middle-aged women's sexuality in media we're diving into how cultural narratives fail to capture the reality and joy of real women's experiences.

  • Going Full Crone With Jessica Grose

    Going Full Crone With Jessica Grose
    2025/02/18
    What if we just stopped accepting the absurd beauty standards that society has created for women? What if we actually aged gracefully instead of just talking about it? That's what New York Times columnist Jessica Grose has decided to do. We chat about her viral article about choosing to "go full crone" in 2025, rejecting cosmetic procedures like Botox in favor of letting her face just do what a face is supposed to do. We explore how social media has intensified beauty pressures, the astronomical costs of "maintenance" treatments, and our attempts to model self-acceptance for our girls in this image-obsessed world.

    2025/02/04
    The world is not fair. But it feels even less so these days. Today's we're diving headfirst into the pressing issue of gender equity in the workplace with special guest and senior researcher, Siri Chilazi from Harvard's Kennedy School. Siri is much more optimistic than I am about the future for women and I wanted to know why. We're chatting about practical strategies for hiring, performance evaluation, and breaking down norms that hold us back. How do we operate in a workplace and world where DEI is becoming a dirty word? She's got great advice about how we can shift norms in our day to day even if we aren't the CEO and she did manage to fill my cold dark heart with a little bit of optimism.
