About this episode

Spring 2020 is shaping up to be far different than anything anyone could have expected. We are, as a global community, just beginning to feel the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic. At Sorta Awesome, we know it's a struggle to find anything to be joyful about right now. But we believe that humankind can survive in the darkest of moments when we are able to find something we can look forward to.

In light of this, we do have an awesome list for Spring 2020, but Meg and her sister Emily adapted it to make sure each item on the list represents something that can be enjoyed even if many of us are living in isolation for the time being. Tune in to hear them talk beauty products, Eastertide, sunscreen, an oral history of The Office, and more.

Plus a shared YouTube favorite and free fashion inspiration for all in Awesome of the Week!
