Judy Woodruff: How Will We Live Our Beau...

Everything Happens Studios
About this episode

How do we navigate life within these beautiful, terrible days? In this special live episode of the Everything Happens podcast, Kate sits down with American broadcast journalist Judy Woodruff at the historic Sixth & I Synagogue in Washington, DC to discuss Kate’s latest book, Have a Beautiful, Terrible Day! Together, they explore what it means to live through the best of days, the worst of days, and all the in-betweens.

Together, they discuss:

  • The apology Kate wishes she would have gotten (and the moving story about when she did)
  • How fragility unites us
  • How can we be more empathetic towards people we disagree with
