Forever35

Kate and Doree give advice to a caller who’s 40 and still trying to figure out how to feel comfortable in her own skin, and help a listener navigate self-care while facing obstacles with her husband. Plus, they give some tips to a very honest caller who was sent $500 worth of La Mer products and doesn’t know whether to keep them.

Hi friends! We are off this week and will be replaying some of our favorite Forever35 episodes. Next up: Samantha Irby, from August, 2018!

This week, Kate discusses her years-long love of Phish while Doree’s digs deep into Poldark and starting a new gym routine. Then they reveal their favorite skincare and makeup products of the moment, including a facial sponge that's changing Kate's life and Doree's new brow pencil obsession.

Later, Kate and Doree talk to the hilarious Samantha Irby, NY Times bestselling author of We Are Never Meeting In Real Life and Meaty, and creator of the blog Bitches Gotta Eat.

Kate and Doree have the pleasure of chatting with Niharika Desai (Principles of Pleasure) about her long friendship with Doree dating back to 1995, how she overcame a feeling of shame around a (well-deserved) daily nap, directing the new Netflix doc series Principles of Pleasure,  and all the ways she’s learned to own her personal narrative from being an MTV World VJ to her long-distance marriage. Plus, Kate makes peace with another surgery for her hand and Doree loves recommending prods to people.

This week Doree and Kate dig into their current pop culture faves, from BTS and Ariana Grande, to a new Netflix show and some must-listen podcast episodes. (And yes, Kate mentions Schitt’s Creek. Again.)

Then they welcome stylist and lifestyle blogger, LaTonya Yvette, author of the new book Woman of Color. She talks about therapy as self-care, finding joy in fashion, seeking out and creating communities as a young mother, why it’s okay not to be “over” things, and her current skincare oil obsession.

*In June 2020 Jen Gotch resigned from her position as Chief Creative Officer at Ban.do after allegations came to light of racism within the company and by Jen herself. When this episode aired, we were unaware of the climate at Ban.do, and hope that the company and Jen will follow through on their promises to create a more respectful and inclusive workplace. We’ve left this episode up to maintain transparency with listeners.

Kate starts playing Animal Crossing to relax and struggles with diet culture messaging during social distancing, and Doree begins to plan for Henry’s first birthday, quarantine-style. Then they're joined by Jen Gotch, co-founder of ban.do and author of The Upside of Being Down, who discusses her mental health and therapy journey, why she schedules fun on her calendar, how she's embraced aging, and why “Desert Jen” is an entirely different person than “LA Jen.”
