Sari Botton is the author of memoir, And You May Find Yourself: Confessions of a Late-Blooming Gen X Weirdo. Sari is the editor-in-chief of the beloved publication, Oldster Magazine, which publishes such luminaries as Cheryl Strayed, Deesha Philyaw, Maggie Smith, and Lauri Stone.
Sari and Gabe compare Gen X notes about growing up as feral children in the 70’s. They discuss the challenges Sari overcame in writing her memoir. They chat about Sari’s lifelong sense of being a misfit and how through writing and telling the truth she found her people. They discuss her fascination with aging and and why she feels that who she is today is the realest version of herself. They also discuss her editorial vision and what the word “oldster” means to her.
