I am a regular listener and love the show. I appreciate the intelligent, insightful and honest look at varied topics. This episode was an exception for me. In contrast to your other shows on capitalism and the patriarchy I felt both in this interview. I am an Indigenous/hispanic woman who has been fortunate to experience enoughness because of my parents, grandparents struggles. I consider myself middle class and very blessed to have enough food, shelter and necessities in life. I am not buying $30 bars of soap. I find it ironic to suggest we encourage our children to be farmers, work with their hands , certainly they would not be buying $30 bars of soap either. Small farmers in Colorado where I live, are leaving farming because they can no longer provide for their families and say they do not want that life for their children. I believe we’ve reached a time that instead of pursuing abundance and luxury we should be focusing on sustainability and how we lift up those we can help. I would spend $10-15 on soap if I knew the same amount was being donated to someone in need of hygiene items. This episode made me uncomfortable and the benefit of that is I am reminded to share in my purchases and my giving to lift others up. Thank you for your podcast.

More reviews of Pulling The Thread with Elise Loehnen
Loved her conversations on the Goop podcast and was so sorry to see her go, but wow! This first episode was so beautiful and moving. Elise has a gift for connecting - and her vocabulary and heart, both of which are expansive, are inspirational to me. I’m so looking forward to future episodes.

Elise does an incredible job of finding the most interesting guests, asking them thoughtful probing questions, and bringing her own perceptive thoughts to the discussion. Her podcasts are a master class in curiosity, grace, poise, and humor. More please!
