Ep 41: Express Yourself with Jessica Hopper

[Please note: This episode includes a discussion of sexual assault that begins at 49:00]

This week Kate and Doree follow up on their own personal Gratitude Challenge, and share what’s bringing them joy in their own lives. Plus Kate commits to a month-long meal plan and reconnects with an old serum favorite, while Doree reveals what pregnancy-safe product she’s now using on her face at night.

Then they welcome Jessica Hopper, music critic and author of the new book Night Moves. She talks about the power of falling in love with a city, the nostalgia she feels for a pre-social media time, dealing with perimenopause, her love of Mad Hippie Vitamin C Serum, and how speaking out helped her heal after an assault.
