Did Privilege Make Shonda Rhimes' Year of Yes Easier? | Book Review

Does saying "yes" to everything actually change your life, or is it just easier when you have the resources of a Hollywood TV producer? 🤔In this book club collaboration between SITM Podcast and Palm Wine Central, Barbara, Maneh, Nora, Terez, and Unkle AK dive deep into Shonda Rhimes' bestselling book, Year of Yes. We unpack Shonda's struggles with intense social anxiety and panic attacks, and debate whether her story is relatable to the everyday woman. From her controversial choice to say "no" to marriage to protect her creative peace, to our critique on whether this book is a true memoir or just a behind-the-scenes look at Grey's Anatomy and Scandal, we hold nothing back!Timestamps: - Intro & Icebreaker: Our most dramatic "No" & funniest "Yes" - What is Year of Yes actually about? - Public Power vs. Private Anxiety - Did privilege & money make Shonda's "Year of Yes" possible? - Saying NO to marriage: Empowering or out of touch? - Is it a real memoir or just a TV show documentary?- Final Ratings & Next Month's Book Reveal!What did you think of Year of Yes?
