My guest this week is Kimberly Harrington. Kimberly is the author of BUT YOU SEEMED SO HAPPY, about her separation and subsequent divorce, and AMATEUR HOUR about parenting. Her work is also included in the collection KEEP SCROLLING TILL YOU FEEL SOMETHING: TWENTY-ONE YEARS OF HUMOR FROM MCSWEENEY’S INTERNET TENDENCY. Kimberly's a long-time copywriter and creative director whose clients have included Apple, Nike, and Netflix. We’re talking about unconventional life choices, fear vs. boredom, choosing curiosity and adventure over safety and security and where that’s led us now that we’re in our 50s and closer to retirement than we once were.
