Episode 54: Michelle Zauner’s ”Crying in H Mart: A Memoir”

On this week's episode we are discussing March's book "Crying in H Mart: A Memoir" by Michelle Zauner. Michelle guides us through a time in her life where she had to navigate restoring her relationship with her mother, while at the same time losing her mother to cancer. It is also a journey of self actualization for Michelle as she try's to unlock the skills she hopes her mother has passed down to her. The journey is also filled with beautiful moments between Michelle and her loved ones and we make sure to discuss our favorites. Michelle's connection to her mother through food is a major theme in her memoir, so in our discussion we try to look at our own lives and relationships with our loved ones and what connects and bonds us to and with them. We wrap up by round robining questions we would love to ask Michelle about her life and story. Mainly where we can get those youtube recipes! Michelle, thank you for sharing your journey with us all!
