On this episode, Britt Brewer welcomes to the pod popular BookTok influencer Samantha Dockser to discuss trending titles grappling with the big, hot-button issues facing a thoroughly modern economy.

How do you avoid burnout? Can certain brands of feminism be downright toxic to your fellow fem-aligned colleagues? What do halos have to do with Taylor Swift? And is the U.S. government covering up undeniable proof of alien life? Okay…So…. Britt and Samantha do NOT turn into UFO truthers on this episode.

BUT, they do break down what it means to be a Samantha, a multi-hyphenate Gen Z’er navigating an ever-shifting professional landscape, or a Britt, an extremely, EXTREMELY elder millennial just trying to stay relevant, and not accidentally offend the new hire. Tune in for a lively, cross-generational gabfest around women holding space in today’s modern workforce.
