Emily Nagoski is a best-selling author, researcher, and sex educator. Emily studied psychology in college, and a fateful job as a peer health educator drew her immediately to the field of sex education and violence prevention. She went on to receive a master’s degree in counseling psychology and a PhD in health behavior. After working as a researcher at the famed Kinsey Institute for Research in Sex, Gender, and Reproduction, she took a job at Smith College, where she lectured and was the director of wellness education. After teaching a class on women’s sexuality, the thing her students said they took away most from the class was that their bodies were normal. She knew that she was onto something powerful and wrote Come as You Are: The Surprising New Science That Will Transform Your Sex Life to help women understand their own sexuality. The book was a huge hit, and eventually, Emily left her job to write and speak full-time. Over the last five years, Emily has written two more books, including this year’s Come Together: The Science (and Art!) of Creating Lasting Sexual Connections.

Molly Sims is an actor, podcaster, entrepreneur, and the founder of YSE Beauty. Molly studied political science at Vanderbilt University and was pre-law when the modeling bug bit her. She signed with Next Management and spent the next 10 years climbing the ranks of the modeling world, appearing on the covers of French Vogue and Sports Illustrated. Soon after, she transitioned to the world of film and TV, appearing in over 100 episodes on the hit NBC drama Las Vegas. In 2021, Molly started a podcast, Lipstick on the Rim, with her best friend Emese Gormely. It’s a space to have the conversations that Molly’s always wanted to hear women talk about—menopause, motherhood, beauty standards, and everything in between. In 2023, she founded YSE Beauty to help people build their self-confidence and improve their skin.

Maris Jones is an artist, filmmaker, and content creator, best known for her high-production TikTok videos and her set-design work for artists like Chappell Roan. She spent years honing her own retro, “distorted nostalgia” aesthetic, and now with her new book, Unlock Your Aesthetic: A Visual Guide to Find Your Vibe, she’s hoping to do the same for you. Jones joins us this week to talk about the fickle nature of making content for the algorithm, the time she got to play with a closet full of vintage Valentino, and of course, what it was like to make Chappell Roan’s giant apple bong for her epic Governors Ball performance this summer.

Sarah Fennel is an author, content creator, and founder of the popular food blog Broma Bakery. Sarah studied anthropology at New York University, and after having a hard time adjusting to college in a big city, she started a food blog to re-create her favorite recipes as a source of comfort and creativity. She eventually transferred to the University of Michigan, and after graduating, followed her love for food and baking by taking a job as a catering director at a local restaurant. But the job wasn’t the right fit, and in a moment of inspiration, she decided to go all in on Broma Bakery, googling “How to make money off of a food blog.” She gave herself two months to make the blog profitable, and it worked. Over the last 10 years, Broma Bakery has become an immensely popular and trusted source for delicious baked goods recipes. Sarah also expanded her business by creating a food photography course and building large followings on TikTok and Instagram. This October, she’s releasing her first cookbook, Sweet Tooth: 100 Recipes to Save Room For. Preorder the book now: https://bromabakery.com/cookbook/
