#57: The Real Answer to These Problems is Very Boring
I think we can agree that 2020 has been a rough year, and we’re all looking for something to help us feel better. Unfortunately, not all treatments are created equal -some are straight-up quackery- and that’s why we’ve formulated a clinical-strength episode devoted to the problematic “lifestyle brand” Goop. We discuss the allure of “health and wellness” practitioners-for-profit, how we should react to their dubious claims, and decide at what point fun aspirational dreaming can become dangerous. Also, what should we actually be doing with those jade eggs (NOTHING NOTHING NOTHING)? Plus, early-adopter Hillary shares her post-birthday debrief, while both Meredith and Ann have tales of house trauma to share (any story that involves the phrase “floor muck” or a large tarp is not going to be a positive one!).
Here's the Bloomberg article we referenced
