Have you ever felt like everyone else got "the memo" but you? Well, that's precisely how 35-year-old Jenny Green feels, and as a result, she's not looking forward to her upcoming college reunion. She reluctantly attends, and while there, she sees an old career counselor who provides her with a magical memo. This memo offers Jenny the chance to travel back to crucial moments in her life, allowing her to alter her past decisions and potentially change her future.
In this episode, I chat with authors Lauren Mechling and Rachel Dodes about their novel The Memo and its themes of ambition, regret, pressures on women, and what it means to live a fulfilling life. The authors also share personal anecdotes about time travel and their creative process and reflect on life choices they'd alter with a magic memo.
