Letters to Women - Exploring the Feminine Genius

A Letter to the Woman Making Friends on the Internet // Elizabeth Vargas


Listen Later

This summer, I’m focusing in on the topic of friendship with other women, and in this third episode of the series, I’m sitting down with Elizabeth Vargas.

Elizabeth is the recipe developer and photographer behind the blog “Elizabeth’s Table”. She was born and raised in Cincinnati, Ohio, studied Economic Consulting and Business Analytics at India University, and currently lives in Ohio. In her free time, when she’s not cooking for her blog, Elizabeth enjoys drinking coffee, eating bananas, working out, listening to podcasts, and attending Mass.

You’ll recognize Elizabeth’s voice from a past episode of this podcast, “A Letter to the Woman Struggling With Body Image,” which I’ll link in today’s show notes so you can get to know Elizabeth’s story as a Catholic woman and hear her reflections on the feminine genius.

When you open the new Sisterhood book, you’ll find Elizabeth’s reflection on friendships that grow online, which kicks off the chapter on navigating the digital world when it comes to our friendships with other women.

If you have a desire not only to take your digital friendships to the next level, sister, this letter is for you!

Topics we talked about in this episode:

  • How a podcast that never came to be was the start of a friendship between Elizabeth and her friend, Lauren
  • How to take the next steps in friendship with the women you know online
  • Elizabeth’s advice for being authentic when you share things online
  • The unhealthy pressure to post your opinions about current events online and what to do before you make that post
  • Whether or not friendships that start online are especially prone to comparison and competition
