Abby: I'm just deeply impacted by very like ordinary things. Things that normal people are supposed to adapt to and adjust to bring on this monumental wave of feeling for me as I navigate them. Like the other day I watched an interview with Kate Blanchett where she talked about when she got her Oscar nomination, the news of her Oscar nomination. They celebrated her with sheet cake and how that's a very American thing. And just like the word sheet cake was so evocative that I just had to write it down because I was just like that's such a moving image That conjures so many different things or like Winnebago.
Michelle Zauner on how to begin healing our mother wounds, using her sensitivity to deepen her relationships and be a rockstar, why she’s obsessed with sheetcake and winnebagos, and why she is still “afraid of her mental health.”
