The Future of Family (with Sophie Lucido Johnson)

Welcome to season 3! On this episode of We Can't Do It Alone, Nōn sits down with Sophie Lucido Johnson, author and New Yorker cartoonist, to explore why vulnerability is both essential and precious, why we perform when we first meet someone, honoring friend chapters with love and grief, saying "I love you" to strangers (especially Trader Joe's clerks), the difference between hosting and integrating, and Sophie's new book, Kin: The Future of Family.

Helpful things mentioned during this episode:
