Drawing from her own journey in the public eye, Monica's unique ability to understand both vulnerability and resilience creates a rare sanctuary where cultural figures, experts and friends feel safe to truly open up. Each week, these intimate conversations go deep but not heavy and invite listeners to find their own connection to the stories of how we get back what was once lost or taken from us. Monica guides conversations into self-exploration with warmth, humor and the kind of unexpected insights that can only reveal themselves when one has navigated the complexity of life.","last_synced_at":"2026-06-16T14:19:06.997700+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/reclaiming-with-monica-lewinsky-7190769"},"episode":{"title":"Lena Waithe","slug":"lena-waithe","published_at":"2026-06-16T04:00:00+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/reclaiming-with-monica-lewinsky-7190769/lena-waithe","show_page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/reclaiming-with-monica-lewinsky-7190769","url":"https://clrtpod.com/m/pscrb.fm/rss/p/traffic.megaphone.fm/ADL5780412694.mp3","audio_url":"https://clrtpod.com/m/pscrb.fm/rss/p/traffic.megaphone.fm/ADL5780412694.mp3","summary":"Emmy-winning actor, writer, and creator Lena Waithe joins Monica on Reclaiming this week for a philosophical conversation about storytelling as a path to empathy and social change.
