Every week, Busy and Caissie ask their guests about a major pivot they’ve faced in their lives. Whenever anyone chooses to generously share something that is so deeply personal while also being incredibly relatable, their stories are unforgettable. This week, author and queer activist Glennon Doyle, journalist Lisa Ling, actor and director Natalie Morales, actor Julia Duffy, comedian Nikki Glaser, winner of RuPaul’s Drag Race All-Stars Season 5 Shea Couleé and actor, comedian, writer and director Ike Barinholtz are all talking about events, sometimes joyful, sometimes incredibly painful, that wound up changing the direction of their lives. TRIGGER WARNING: Discussion of suicide, rape and eating disorders and death.
