There’s a version of womanhood that looks good on paper. The right partner. The right timing. The right balance. The right plan. And then there’s real life.In this episode I sit down with Margherita to talk about what happens when everything you carefully built gets taken away and what grows in its place. We talk about motherhood guilt that doesn’t make sense but won’t leave about raising boys without suffocating them about being let go before you’re ready and about the quiet power of letting go

Taste, Chaos & Building a business with Laurel Pantin

ZILLION TRILLION ·

2025/11/26

Today I’m chatting with Laurel Pantin — writer, editor, curator of Earl Earl by Laurel Pantin , and one of the rare people whose taste isn’t just good, it’s grounded. Laurel has lived entire lifetimes inside the fashion world: from the magazine trenches to the front-row circus to building a space online that actually reflects who she is, not what the industry expects. Her shift from the safety of a masthead to the uncertainty of freelancing wasn’t just a career pivot — it was an identity rewire, a

How to Talk to Your Boys (Before the Internet Does)

ZILLION TRILLION ·

2025/10/27

This week I’m talking with Joanna Schroeder Christopher Pepper — the duo behind Talk to Your Boys, a book that every parent (or honestly, human) needs right now. Joanna’s essays on masculinity and media have appeared in The New York Times, Esquire, and The Atlantic. Christopher’s spent decades teaching sex ed and health to teenagers — which basically makes him an anthropologist of modern boyhood.We get into all of it: why boys are shutting down, how to get them to actually talk, what porn and social

I swore I’d never fangirl on my own podcast… then I sat down with Tish Weinstock (aka one of my style icons)Tish is one of those rare women who can move seamlessly between the worlds of fashion, beauty, and culture without losing an ounce of herself in the process. A London-based writer, consultant, and editor, she’s currently a beauty editor at British Vogue, but her career reads like a roll call of fashion legends: working alongside Paolo Roversi and John Galliano on a Luncheon Magazine cover

BIOHACKING FOR DUMMIES

ZILLION TRILLION ·

2025/07/20

Okay, real talk: I'm selfishly excited for this live.Not because I'm some enlightened wellness oracle—but because I’m a woman of a certain age who has recently started groaning every time I stand up. My muscles ache, my energy disappears at 3pm, and I’ve been having an existential reckoning about strength, aging, and (let’s be honest) my own mortality. Cute!The topic of biohacking has always felt... extra. Like unless you own a cryotherapy chamber and an Oura ring that matches your manicure, you’re

When the hospital sent her home just two hours after a stillbirth, Katrina thought the worst was behind her.It wasn’t.In Part 2 of our conversation, we pick up right where we left off—and it’s not a peaceful postpartum. It’s trauma, ignored symptoms, and a terrifying descent into septic shock while doctors told her she “looked fine.”We talk about how the system fails women in the moments that matter most, what it really means to advocate for yourself when you’re too broken to stand, and the hidden

THE UNSPOKEN COST OF IVF

The moment I read the first part of Katrina’s essay, I knew I needed to speak to her. There was something so profoundly raw, unflinching, and—somehow—still full of grace. What she’s been through is something no human should have to endure. And yet, the strength, clarity, and even flashes of humor she brings to her story left me floored.In this conversation, Katrina Symonds shares what most people never talk about: the gutting realities of IVF, the isolation of repeated loss, and the quiet strength

Rethinking Boyhood: The True Price of Male Privilege

America’s boys are not alright. We’re living in the middle of a full-blown boy crisis, and it’s not getting the attention it deserves. Let’s hit the grim stats: boys make up 60% of school suspensions and nearly 80% of all ADHD diagnoses (are they really hyper, or is school just not built for them?). The education gender gap is glaring—out of every 100 women earning a college degree, only 74 men cross the same stage. By eighth grade, 25% of boys score below basic reading proficiency, compared to just
