In the season premiere, Chauncey Zalkin reflects on her solo summer trip to New Zealand while her kids were with their father. Navigating the emotions of sudden solitude, she finds herself reacquainting with her pre-motherhood identity amid stunning landscapes and cultural explorations—from the geothermal wonders of Waimangu Volcanic Valley and fjords of Milford Sound to a quiet week of self-discovery in Auckland. Chauncey discusses the unexpected mix of grief, longing, and desire for more—a push for change, new adventures, and deeper connection.
She also shares her take on last night’s debate between Kamala Harris and Donald Trump, celebrating Harris’ undeniable skill and intelligence and reflecting on what it means for women and for our country. This episode combines introspection, adventure, and sharp political commentary, offering a fresh perspective on personal growth and the desire for more from life.
