Published: March 31, 2021, 3:43 p.m.

b'Bonnie Tsui is a journalist and the author of Why We Swim.\\u201cI am a self-motivated person. I really don\\u2019t like being told what to do. I\\u2019ve thought about this many times over the last 16 years that I\\u2019ve been a full-time freelancer... even though I thought my dream was to always and forever be living in New York, working in publishing, working at a magazine, being an editor, writing. When I was an editor, I kind of hated it. I just didn\\u2019t like being chained to a desk.\\u201d\\n\\nThanks to\\xa0Mailchimp for sponsoring this week\'s episode.\\n\\nShow notes:\\n@bonnietsui\\nbonnietsui.com\\n02:00 Why We Swim\\xa0(Algonquin \\u2022 2020)\\n03:30 American Chinatown: A People\'s History of Five Neighborhoods\\xa0(Tsui \\u2022 Free Press \\u2022 2009)\\n10:30 The Deep\\xa0(2012)\\n28:00 "With His Absence, My Artist Father Taught Me the Art of Vanishing"\\xa0(Catapult \\u2022 Feb 2019)\\n41:30 "After Fires, Napa and Sonoma Tourism Industry Is Getting Back on Its Feet"\\xa0(New York Times \\u2022 Oct 2017)\\n44:30 "Child Care: What\\u2005\\u2014\\u2005and Who\\u2005\\u2014\\u2005It Takes to Raise a Family"\\xa0(California Sunday \\u2022 July 2019)\\n49:00 "The Break: Female Big-Wave Surfers Prepare to Compete on Mavericks\\u2019s 50-Foot Waves for the First Time"\\xa0(California Sunday \\u2022 Aug 2018)\\n50:00 "Meet the Women Who Are Changing What it Means to be a Mom and a Professional Athlete"\\xa0(Sports Illustrated \\u2022 Dec 2019)\\n53:30 "You Are Doing Something Important When You Aren\\u2019t Doing Anything"\\xa0(New York Times \\u2022 June 2019)\\nLearn more about your ad choices.
