Is this episode a PJ party or just good old fashioned girl talk?  What’s for sure is that the ladies of the podcast (Chris was traveling) chat openly and honestly about feminism & what it’s like to be a GenX woman. Between growing up with Gloria Steinam's influence on our mothers, watching Katie in The Way We Were, "Leaning In" w/Sheryl Sandberg at work and stressing out with Ada Calhoun at midlife, we share our expectations,  experiences and how we're feeling about everything right now.  If you (or a beloved woman in your life) have also been thinking about evolving through it all, this ep is for you. Pinky promise.
