January was such an incredible month, and we're kicking off February with a solo episode that dives deep into self-discovery, personal growth, and a more focused mission for this show. I've been thinking a lot about what truly matters—not just for this podcast, but in my own life. Over the past year, I've navigated some big personal revelations, reevaluated what brings me joy, and made a conscious decision to create a space right here that fosters connection, healing, and authenticity. We don't always have to have everything figured out, and I'm working on giving myself permission to keep things messy and always evolving – with a mindset of “we'll see” – and I invite you to do the same. I played around with the show intro to make sure it really captured the essence of the show - and me, your host. I'm not totally there yet but will keep working on it! In this episode:• Reflections on our Five-Part January 2025 Glow-Up Series and how it's setting the tone for the year ahead.• A behind-the-scenes look at why I updated the show's teaser and trailer—what I've learned about myself and how I want this space to evolve.• Why I didn't turn this into a Greenwich gossip show (despite the temptation) and how my past as a celebrity reporter shaped that decision.• The personal struggles that redefined my perspective—from infertility and pregnancy loss to rebuilding a life that truly aligns with who I am.• The transformative power of the phrase “We'll see”—why it can change the way you approach life's challenges and uncertainties.• A beautiful quote from Yung Pueblo that perfectly captures the heart of this podcast and the kind of energy I want to cultivate. This episode is all about stepping into alignment, letting go of what no longer serves us, and embracing the journey—even when we don't have all the answers.

Now that the holidays are officially over, it's time to look back on the last few weeks and identify what worked well and what just didn't so next year we don't end up in the same unfulfilling patterns during the precious time of the holiday season. Too many of us KILLED ourselves to keep traditions alive that no longer serve us and our families, AND too many of us engaged in extreme people pleasing at a large cost to our own peace. This week I'm also sharing a listener's moving story about finding gratitude amidst unimaginable loss. It's a reminder that the holiday season is not just about perfection but about connection, healing, and joy in the small moments – and prioritizing your mental health.In this episode:• A sneak peek into my upcoming girls' getaway to the Mirabeau Inn & Spa in Rhinebeck, NY, with my best friend, Alison Seponara.• The joy of incorporating new traditions, like tinsel on the Christmas tree, and rethinking old ones that no longer serve us.• Why it's okay to say “no” to holiday obligations and prioritize your family's unique needs.• Reflections on past holidays, navigating childhood traditions with divorced parents, and how those experiences shape my current holiday approach.• The balance between people-pleasing and preserving your peace—and how to make self-care a priority.

In yet another follow-up to the past two episodes about body image, this week I'm joined by Dr. Shieva Ghofrany, an OB-GYN with 25 years of experience and the founder of Tribe Called V. She has shepherded me – and countless other women and families - through some pretty traumatic medical hurdles, and she is talking all things perimenopause with me this week in the studio. She's dishing about hormonal changes, misconceptions about treatments – especially hormone therapy - and how to manage symptoms like weight gain, hot flashes, low libido and mood shifts. You'll never believe how helpful something as simple as Vitamin D3 is – or watching your alcohol, sugar and caffeine intake! There's no one-size-fits-all approach but she definitely shares some action items. Most importantly, we talk about how self-compassion plays a role in these changes. We have to find a middle-ground between making positive changes and accepting the natural aging process.

In this conversation, Dr. Sandra Glahn, Dr. Matthew Milliner, and Christine Calareso Bleecker discuss the absence of depicting the body of the first person of the Trinity in Christian art and how it has shaped perceptions of women. Dr. Milliner explains that early Christian art depicted the Trinity through sarcophagi and male embodiments of Christ, but the depiction of the Father went underground due to the influence of pagan depictions of Zeus. The resurgence of depicting the Trinity in art in later centuries led to the physical depiction of God and the caricature of the bearded male figure. This had ramifications for women, as it emphasized one gender's resemblance to God and undermined the understanding that both men and women fully image God. The conversation also explores the visual literacy needed to identify Virgin stories in art, such as the depictions of Agnes, Dorothy, Catherine, and Agatha. The significance of depicting the Virgin Mary is discussed, highlighting her representation of the ecclesial nature of the formation of the body of Christ and the reflection on end-of-life issues. The conversation also emphasizes the beauty and redemptive power of these art depictions. It also explores the power of images in healing and restoration, the importance of lament and hope, and the role of Mary as a symbol of healing and response to violence. Plus, the conversation also touches on the Virgin of the Passion and Our Lady of Perpetual Help as icons of love in the face of violence while addressing the power of images in overcoming pornography and the historical tradition of Mary as a leader in the church.Key Takeaways: The absence of depicting the body of the first person of the Trinity in Christian art has shaped perceptions of women.The resurgence of depicting the Trinity in art led to the physical depiction of God and the caricature of the bearded male figure.Depicting the Father physically undermined the understanding that both men and women fully image God.Visual literacy is important for identifying Virgin stories in art and understanding their significance.

This Episode is a rebroadcast of Episode 030 with Tony Dunne and Fiona Raby, preceded and amended with various explications and questions posed to the Chesterbot container of the conversation's semantics. **Speculative Design Practice** Tony Dunne and Fiona Raby's design practice has evolved over time. Initially focused on conceptual models, they now also create prototypes. They find models give more creative freedom. Their work with complex technologies like biotech led them to embrace fiction and modeling. The term 'speculative design' emerged from their critical design work engaging science and tech. They value fiction for its own sake, not just for discussing the future or selling concepts. **Teaching Speculative Design** Dunne and Raby direct the Design Reality Studio at Parsons, teaching posthumanism, quantum theory and designed realities. They collaborate with faculty and choose their own research. They are writing a book on new ideas and approaches in design. **Interdisciplinarity and Collaboration** Dunne, Raby and Bleecker value letting disciplines interact in surprising ways while retaining disciplinary roots. Bleecker proposes a 'general seminar' where diverse people make sense of ideas together, as Dunne and Raby have long practiced. They hope design, science, tech and industry collaborate more, though science and tech currently do so more than design. **Representing Imagined Futures** They aim to represent imagined futures expanding beyond the typical narrow range. They explore 'impossible objects' and how constraints limit collective imagination. **Recognition and Validation** Dunne and Raby were delighted to receive the Royal Designers for Industry award, valuing its recognition of their trajectory, not just current work. They appreciate the range of practices recognized. Bleecker sees it as validating their creative practice.

Natalie Freihon is the founder of Strange Bird Hospitality who brings to life in New York City these great restaurants, Nat's On Bank, Nat's on Bleecker, and The Orchard Townhouse. Surprisedly I've eaten at The Orchard Townhouse when I used to work in Chelsea, oh my photo and video days, but definitely stopped by when I'm bopping around to galleries. Lo and behold I enjoy walking down Chelsea into the West Village, it's kind of one of my favorite things to do. Get my steps in. But yes I know I tell all my friends I never go above 14th street but this is an exception. Now I can add a favorite into my Google Maps for Nat's on Bank which was a great experience having friend, guest, and collaborator Christian Schwartz of Commercial Type to go to lunch with. Nat's Mountain House is about to drop and it's in the Catskills in which we go up every summer. Ever since I discovered glamping I can never go back.
