Her most recent article is\\xa0\\u201dThe Ones We Sent Away.\\u201d\\n\\u201cI\'m at the point where I\'m only thinking about the big questions and the difficulty of being a human as what matter most. That\'s what I want to keep focusing on. Our common frailties, our common bonds, our common difficulties. Because clearly we are not going to bond politically as a nation, right? \\u2026 But we can bond over our kids with disabilities. About the fact that we grieve, that we love, that we lose people. That we have friends that we love, friends that we hate. We have friendships that we miss, we have friendships that we can\'t live without.\\u201d\\nShow notes:\\n\\njennifersenior.net\\n\\nJennifer Senior on Longform\\n\\nJennifer Senior on Longform Podcast\\n\\n00:00\\xa0"What Bobby McIlvaine Left Behind"\\xa0(Atlantic \\u2022 Aug 2021)\\n\\n01:00\\xa0On Grief\\xa0(Atlantic Editions \\u2022 2023)\\n\\n01:00\\xa0"The Ones We Sent Away"\\xa0(Atlantic \\u2022 Aug 2023)\\n\\n02:00\\xa0All Joy and No Fun: The Paradox of Modern Parenthood\\xa0(Ecco \\u2022 2014)\\n\\n03:00\\xa0The Body Keeps the Score: Brain, Mind, and Body in the Healing of Trauma\\xa0(Bessel Van Der Kolk \\u2022 Penguin \\u2022 2015)\\n\\n03:00\\xa0Senior\'s\\xa0New York Magazine\\xa0archive\\n\\n\\n04:00\\xa0Being Mortal: Medicine and What Matters in the End\\xa0(Atul Gawande \\u2022 Picador \\u2022 2017)\\n\\n05:00\\xa0Senior\'s\\xa0New York Times\\xa0archive\\n\\n\\n12:00\\xa0Unequal Childhoods: Class, Race, and Family Life\\xa0(Annette Lareau \\u2022 University of California Press \\u2022 2011)\\n\\n17:00\\xa0Heavyweight\\xa0(Jonathan Goldstein \\u2022 Gimlet)\\n\\n18:00\\xa0"#25 Becky and Jo"\\xa0(Jonathan Goldstein \\u2022 Gimlet \\u2022 Oct 2019)\\n\\n18:00\\xa0"#2 Gregor"\\xa0(Jonathan Goldstein \\u2022 Gimlet \\u2022 Sep 2016)\\n\\n28:00\\xa0"It\\u2019s Your Friends Who Break Your Heart"\\xa0(Atlantic \\u2022 Feb 2022)\\n\\n42:00\\xa0Patient H.M.\\xa0(Luke Dittrich \\u2022 Random House \\u2022 2017)\\n\\n47:00\\xa0"What Not to Ask Me About My Long COVID"\\xa0(Atlantic \\u2022 Feb 2023)\\n\\n\\nLearn more about your ad choices.
