Hey Day in the Life listeners! We're taking the rest of 2018 off from releasing new episodes but we wanted to share a few fan-favorite episodes in case you missed them the first time around.

Grateful for your support!   On today's show, I have Rachel Wilkerson Miller who is a Senior Lifestyle Editor at BuzzFeed.   I've followed Rachel's blog for years. I'm talkin' at least 8 years, which is a long time in blog days. While her blog has changed over time (it used to be healthy living focused, now it mostly shares what she's reading and writing), I've always loved following along her life.   I think I'm not alone when it comes to curiosity about what it's like to work at BuzzFeed. Is it really as fun as it seems? Are the people actually cool or are they stuck up? How do they get work done while working in a chaotic environment?!   We chat about all of this more. Rachel shares how she got the job at BuzzFeed, advice she'd give to anyone who wants to work in journalism, the most challenging and rewarding aspects about working at BuzzFeed, where she finds inspiration on the stories she writers, and a heck of a lot more.   Excited for you to tune in and hope you enjoy!   In today's episode, you'll find out:   How Rachel got started at BuzzFeed. Advice she would give to someone who wants to work in journalism or at BuzzFeed specifically. The most challenging aspects and proudest moments during her career at BuzzFeed. One thing that surprised her about working at BuzzFeed. Where she finds inspiration for the articles she writes and what she likes most about working at BuzzFeed. How the political climate has changed the content that's shared on BuzzFeed.
