That’s Enough with Heather Havrilesky

Welcome to our 2019 premiere — where we dig deep on all the ways our culture tells us we’re not “enough,” and get some help figuring out what to do about it.

We’re joined by writer and cultural critic Heather Havrilesky, author of the new book, What If This Were Enough. We talk about writing NY Mag’s “Ask Polly” advice column, facing our emotions and sad moments head-on, and how we can all make 2019 the year we stop beating ourselves up and learn to enjoy ourselves a little more.

Heather Havrilesky, “Ask Polly” columnist & author of What If This Were Enough?

We live in a world that tells us that we don’t have enough, that we need more, and that…the feeling of wanting more is somehow a moral failure on a personal level.

Plus: Katel shares her gratitude journal, Sara unpacks her judgey feels, and we talk through all the ways we’ve both felt inadequate or unproductive at work — and how we’re moving past it.
