Episode Details

Author and journalist Lindsay Crouse joins Sarah to talk about her new book “The Case for Quitting: The Surprising Benefits of Opting Out.” They discuss why women tend to absorb far more than their share of unproductive suffering without ever considering quitting as an option, which questions to ask when deciding whether something is worth continuing, and what everyone can learn from zebrafish. Crouse also reflects on her role bringing to light the stories of brave women like Kara Goucher and Allyson Felix when she was a journalist at the New York Times. Plus, another record bites the dust, tonight’s the night, and no skis, no problem.
