Writers and couple Priya Parker and Anand Giridharadas join Monica this week on Reclaiming for an energized conversation about intentional gathering, healthy conflict, and building a shared intellectual life within their marriage. Priya explains how her new book, The Art of Fighting, explores the ways disagreement can deepen—rather than destroy—our sense of belonging.

Together, they reflect on how their ideas challenge and sharpen each other, how they sustain two ambitious careers while raising a family, and how to distinguish a fight that creates change from one that merely causes harm.

Sara Hirsh Bordo
This week Monica sits down with award-winning filmmaker, Women Rising founder, and author Sara Hirsh Bordo for a deeply personal conversation about chronic illness, self-silencing, and the hidden cost of being the “good girl.” Sara shares how her autoimmune diagnoses transformed her from documentarian into subject—and led her to write Autoimmunity and the Good Girls: How Permission to Put Ourselves First Has the Power to Keep Us Well. Drawing on her personal experience, original research conducted across 22 countries, and more than 50 hours of interviews, Sara explores how conditioning women to be agreeable, useful, and endlessly giving can shape their relationships with stress, identity, and their own bodies. Together, Monica and Sara unpack the difference between kindness and self-abandonment, why setting a boundary can feel like betrayal, and what it means to treat the body as a witness rather than an enemy.

Chang-rae Lee
Celebrated novelist Chang-rae Lee joins Monica this week on Reclaiming for an insightful conversation about immigration, identity, and the stories we construct to make sense of our lives. Chang-rae opens up about coming to the United States from Seoul at age three and how the loss of his mother at the beginning of his writing career shook his sense of self. He and Monica examine his belief that all immigrant novels are dystopian novels and their shared fascination with the stories that live in the aftermath of life altering events. Together, they move between displacement and belonging, fear and creative freedom, the gravity of history and the reclamation of play—and consider whether taking back your story might also mean refusing to be confined by a single one. Plus, Chang-rae reveals how his new novel, A Tender Age may be his most autobiographical yet. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
