The Guilt Algorithm: Why We Feel Bad About Everything
We're back and doing what we do best: talking honestly about guilt.
Not the tidy "here's how you can fix it" version, but the real thing: the guilt of dropping your daughter at camp while she clutches her stuffed hedgehog, the guilt of taking a vacation you've worked two years to earn, the guilt of being a working mother (or not being one), and the exhaustion we all seem to currrently embody.
Georgette on leaving for Scotland and Northern Ireland mid-launch of Vivace Media; Valentina on why "lucky you" is the worst thing you can say to a freelancer taking three well-earned weeks off. Plus: the relocation-influencer trope of Italians "embracing summer," guilt vs. selfishness, why apologizing less changed how Valentina works, and chasing serenity instead of happiness.
In Cose a Caso: we both share two things we refuse to feel guilty about.
