This week! Kimberly's hungover, Jenn's feeling uncharacteristically optimistic. Plus: White lady yoga chat, learning and re-learning how to swim in midlife, corporate retreats, the hell of icebreakers, decoupling health insurance from our jobs, and are we seeing lights at the end of the 2026 garbage tunnel?
