Ep. 467: Let’s Celebrate Mimsy May!

About this episode

Liz and Sarah celebrate friendship and whimsy while discussing the importance of separating the creator and the editor.

Every week on the podcast Liz and Sarah mention “how they balance a career and friendship.” They usually talk about the career part, but today they’re leaning into friendship. Find out what they’re doing just for fun and female bonding. In Take A Hike, the fun continues with the announcement of Mimsy May. Sarah and Liz are embracing whimsy in May, and they think you should too! Next, in The Craft (& Fain), they talk about the importance of separating the “creator” and the “editor.” This week’s Hollywood Hack is for the birds: the Mademax Solar Bird Bath Fountain. Finally, Liz recommends Famesick: A Memoir by Lena Dunham. Sign up for Liz & Sarah’s free weekly Substack newsletter at ⁠https://happierinhollywoodpod.substack.com⁠. It’ll come right to your inbox!
