In May 2022 when John Fetterman was campaigning to be Pennsylvania’s Democratic nominee for the U.S. Senate, his wife, Gisele Barreto Fetterman, noticed a slight droop in his mouth and sensed that something was terribly wrong. She demanded they go to the hospital over her husband’s objections and it’s lucky they did. He was having a stroke. After he won the seat, she noticed how sad he was. He was later hospitalized for depression. This week, our guest is Gisele Barreto Fetterman, who was once an undocumented immigrant and is now an activist, philanthropist and author. Her new book is titled Radical Tenderness. We’ll talk about why vulnerability is a source of strength, why crying doesn’t make you weak, and her transition from invisibility to the public eye.

Author Oliver Burkeman on why it’s time to settle for your imperfections and ditch the relentless self-help messaging of productivity and control.

Psychologist John Kounios on our creative brain and those “eureka moments.” Plus, how composer Jennifer Higdon channels her creativity into her music.

Is caregiving a public or private responsibility?

Brothers Howard and Bryan Stevenson reflect on their Delaware childhood, their social justice work and how to make sense of these troubled times.
