Before we get into today's episode, we have an important announcement: after 4 years and 200 episodes, we are bringing The Suburban Women Problem to a close and starting something new.
If you’ve been a loyal listener of the show for years, we know that might be hard. It’s hard for us too. But this show was created in 2021 and the political world is so different now - we want to meet the moment and create new kinds of content that support meaningful action in this difficult time.
We’ve been hearing from our community that so many of you are overwhelmed. Many of us are struggling with grief, fear, and burn-out, unable to engage with the news. So we’re planning some podcast content that helps our community stay informed and inspired without getting overwhelmed by the daily news cycle.
We’ll continue to post nearly every day here on Substack — we love sharing our thoughts and videos with you on this platform and we’re not going anywhere! And brand-new podcasts are in the works too, starting with a series of short shareable episodes called “Okay But Why.” (Like “okay but why is the Department of Education important?” or “okay but why does the Constitution include separation of powers?”) If you have a question you’d like to see answered, please leave a comment here!
We’ll have a regular episode next week, followed by a week of celebration with all of our favorite past conversations. Our last episode of The Suburban Women Problem will air on March 5th, and after that, we’ll have all kinds of exciting new content. We are so grateful for everyone who’s become part of the SWP community and we can’t wait to start a new adventure with you.
With that said, this week our hosts had a great conversation with Red Wine & Blue COO (and yoga teacher!) LaFonda Cousin about self-care and why so many things we're fighting for right now should never have become "political" in the first place. We hope you enjoy it!
