No one does great things alone. We need friends, spouses, siblings, colleagues, and others we can turn to for support. So on today’s episode, we’re celebrating partnerships. Hillary speaks with Call Your Girlfriend podcast co-hosts Aminatou Sow and Ann Friedman, best friends whose bestselling book, Big Friendship: How We Keep Each Other Close, offers an honest and insightful examination of how to make and maintain friendships meant to last. Hillary also talks with Pennsylvania Lieutenant Governor and Second Lady John and Gisele Fetterman, whose shared commitment to civil service—and good humor—have kept their partnership strong. And she meets brother-sister computer programming duo Ileana and Jorge Valdez, the creators of OKZoomer, a dating site for college students stuck at home. Aminatou Sow is a digital strategist, writer, influencer, and co-founder of Tech LadyMafia, an organization of women in the tech industry.  Ann Friedman is a journalist and contributor to New York magazine, The Los Angeles Times, and The Gentlewoman.  John Fetterman is the 24th Lieutenant Governor of Pennsylvania and currently running for U.S. Senate representing his home state.  Gisele Barreto Fetterman contributes to her community through nonprofit service, founding Freestore 15104 and co-founding For Good Pgh and 412 Food Rescue.

Aminatou Sow is the co-host of Call Your Girlfriend, the “podcast for long-distance besties everywhere,” alongside her Big Friend and collaborator, Ann Friedman. On July 14th, the pair released their first book together, Big Friendship: How We Keep Each Other Close, which has already amassed praise by everyone from Hillary Clinton to Roxane Gay to Vogue. But before Aminatou was a literary thought leader and media legend, she had a previous life in tech where she worked for Google and co-founded the Tech LadyMafia, a network for women who work “in and around tech.” And before that? She worked at a social media agency as an analyst and at a think tank in DC. Hear how all her experience has converged into one impressive and admirable career path on this episode of Second Life.

Aminatou Sow is the smart-as-hell, wildly successful multi-hyphenate super-person we all dream of being—she's a strategist, a podcast host ("Call Your Girlfriend"), a soon-to-be-published author, a network-builder (Tech LadyMafia), and, yes, an influencer.  But she's one who uses her clout for good. (“I am definitely a capitalist sellout,” she says. “But also, I’m doing it with a purpose.”) In this episode, she explains how to build a personal brand without sacrificing your soul, how to effectively say no to people, and why you should never email someone to ask, “Can I pick your brain?” Plus, as always, our guest's Favorite F**k-Up.

Thrilled to bring you today's guest, one of my favourite New York-based podcasters, Aminatou Sow! She is a true multi-hyphenate: a digital strategist, writer, influencer, co-host of wildly popular podcast 'Call Your Girlfriend' and co-founder of Tech LadyMafia. She was recently named one of Forbes’ 30 Under 30 in tech. This episode was recorded live at WNYC's The Greenespace in New York City! Huge thank you to the team at WNYC for making this happen: Clemency Burton-Hill, Cameron Thompkins, Chase Culpon and Jennifer Sendrow and everyone at New York Public Radio. I had such a brilliant evening! Part two will be uploaded soon, which includes the audience Q&A. What a special evening. We discuss tech, mental health, imposter syndrome and how we all need to get better at rooting for ourselves (and we should trust nobody.)Quotes from this episode that I love:- "The truth is, no one knows anything."- "Patriarchy is a scam. Whiteness is a scam."- "Everybody lies about being an expert."- "You should trust yourself more, and other people less."- "Your podcast doesn't need to be perfect."- "Young people are idiots. We live in a culture of 30 under 30, or 5 under 5 or whatever."- ​"​There is no shame, there is truly no shame in needing help.​"​​- "We've never at a president who's been open about mental health. you have the worst job in the world and you're telling me you don't get a little bit depressed?"- "I hope we can get to a point where the people who represent us in politics actually understand how technology works. They're still figuring out how to attach pictures to email, and the rest of us are getting eaten by robots."- "Instead of saying 'why does that person have that??' think 'how do I get that for myself?"
