Fresh Reads: Famished: On Food, Sex, and Growing Up as a Good Girl by Anna Rollins

Saison 11 · Épisode 24

lundi 28 juillet 2025 • Durée 15:20

When the world shut down, Anna Rollins opened a door she had kept locked for over a decade. A longtime teacher and private writer, Anna found herself postpartum, isolated during the pandemic, and struck by a single, urgent question: Would she go her whole life without telling the truth about what had shaped her? What followed was a furious commitment to finally write the book she’d always feared—and needed—to write. In this intimate episode, Olivia Howell sits down with Anna to discuss her forthcoming memoir, Famished: On Food, Sex, and Growing Up as a Good Girl, and the winding, courageous path to saying the unsayable.

Anna’s memoir dives deep into the tangled roots of evangelical purity culture and diet culture, unearthing the ways these ideologies collude to separate women from their own bodies, appetites, and desires. Structured in three acts—girlhood, marriage, and motherhood—the book blends personal narrative with reportage, including interviews with nearly 50 women who have lived under these same scripts. Anna shares how writing this story helped her reclaim her body, her voice, and her authority after years of self-erasure, and why she believes telling the truth about our most tender experiences is an act of rebellion and liberation.

This conversation is not just for those who grew up in religious communities—it’s for anyone who was ever taught to shrink themselves. With vulnerability and clarity, Anna reminds us that writing for yourself first is sacred, and that the courage to share your story doesn’t have to arrive all at once—it can come quietly, in the margins of your life, and grow louder with time. Whether you're an aspiring memoirist, a woman untangling herself from cultural expectations, or simply someone in search of a fresh story, this episode offers hope, resonance, and a powerful invitation to reclaim the narrative.

Fresh Reads: Clementine Crane Prefers Not To by Kristin Bair

Saison 11 · Épisode 23

lundi 28 juillet 2025 • Durée 12:38

It starts with a hot flash. That moment—unexpected, uninvited, and disorienting—becomes the spark that ignites Clementine Crane’s quiet rebellion. In this moving and laugh-out-loud episode of A Fresh Story: Book Talk, Olivia sits down with novelist and writing teacher Kristin Bair to discuss her forthcoming novel Clementine Crane Prefers Not To, a fierce and funny feminist tale of a woman who wakes up, drenched in sweat, and realizes she’s been sleepwalking through a life of over-functioning, over-giving, and never asking herself what she wants. What follows is Clementine’s unraveling—and remaking—of her life, one “I prefer not to” at a time.

Kristin brings her sharp wit and deeply lived insight to a conversation about writing, rage, midlife, and the radical awakening that can occur in the most mundane moments of motherhood. Inspired by both her own perimenopausal experience and the literary ghosts of Melville and Ibsen, Clementine Crane Prefers Not To is part love letter to women who are done saying yes to everything—and part battle cry for those still trying to find the language for their no. Clementine is a mother, a wife, a library worker, and a woman who has spent decades appeasing the world around her. But in the quiet heat of hormonal upheaval, something cracks open, and she begins to reclaim the person she’s long buried beneath obligation.

For anyone moving through a major life transition—whether it's divorce, menopause, career change, or simply waking up to the ache of self-neglect—this novel is an anthem of autonomy. Kristin shares her writing journey with warmth and vulnerability, reminding us that transformation rarely looks glamorous, but it often begins with the smallest refusal. Clementine’s story is not just fiction—it’s a mirror, a permission slip, and a hopeful blueprint for choosing yourself, over and over again.

Weekly Wrap-Up with Olivia and Jenny: Olivia's shocking surprise, Jenny's washing machine woes+ our award-winning week

Saison 11 · Épisode 14

vendredi 30 mai 2025 • Durée 44:03

Olivia had a secret—and not the bad kind. This week on A Fresh Story, she shares a joyful surprise: after quietly enrolling in and completing a certification, she’s now a certified divorce coach. For someone who’s spent years writing about divorce, supporting others through it, and building an entire support ecosystem, it wasn’t about adding another title. It was about taking responsibility for her words and the people who read them. What started as a quiet spark during meditation became a proud milestone, made even sweeter by the sisterly reveal.

Meanwhile, Genevieve battles a broken washing machine in a rental that seems to fight back at every turn, shedding light on the invisible emotional labor of tenants everywhere. Her story isn’t just about appliances or landlords—it’s about boundaries, burnout, and the frustrating gray area between dependence and control. But even amid chaos, she finds joy in small rituals: a new bathing suit, the return of lap swimming, the soft power of reclaiming personal style.

This week’s episode is a celebration of progress—messy, nonlinear, but beautiful. Olivia and Genevieve share music, routines, and reflections on the sacred act of feeling good in your skin. With honest laughter, a few “I told you so”s, and a new podcast award under their belt, the sisters remind us that wisdom lives in the little things—and that you’re never too busy (or too tired) to grow.
