Ep. 30: "Remember that you're never stuck"

​A year ago today... Jill moved from NYC to Nairobi, embarking on a new adventure with a new boyfriend.

In this week's episode, we dive into:

• the "un-feminist" reason Jill moved,
• what life is like in Nairobi (do they have gluten-free pasta?),
• the importance of small pleasures in new places or situations,
• the experience of being so clearly "other," and so much more.

Mentioned in this episode...

Tyla may or may not have been talking about Sonia Sotomayor on Death, Sex & Money, but Sally does love that episode, so take a listen anyway.

Jill mentions All the Single Ladies by Rebecca Traister, which Sally has just started reading.

The book Tyla reads from is Kurt Vonnegut's A Man Without a Country. “A husband, a wife, and some kids is not a family; it’s a terribly vulnerable survival unit.”​

Tyla briefly mentions the terrific podcast, Call Your Girlfriend.

The New Better Off is Courtney Martin's latest book, which delves into the importance of community.

And, of course, there's Jill's book! The H Spot: The Feminist Pursuit of Happiness is due out May 2nd, and you can pre-order it now.
