Thao Thai Finds A New Calling
from Flipflops Podcast Hosted by Angelique Gay
Recording this episode was a pinch-me moment. I discovered writer Thao Thai through one of my favorite blogs called Cupcakes & Cashmere. Her writing is exquisite. Thao also works part-time for Cubby, a weekly newsletter for busy parents at home with their kids from the editors of Apartment Therapy & Kitchn. Thao shares her first memory, how she gets unstuck, and her biggest takeaways from her MFA. We talk about how motherhood changed her relationship to writing, and how she discovered a new calling to help other moms. We talk about navigating big career changes and parting ways with other people's expectations in order to honor our true self. Thao generously agrees to read to us from some of her essays on keeping her name, her coffee ritual and what microaggressions feel like.
