S110: Bonus: Summer Conferencing

Here's a quick-turnaround bonus episode of Whitney reflecting on her recent conference travel. It's uncut and hot off the presses. Our co-host, Whitney, reflects on what she wore, plus-sized shopping, the power of freshly braided hair, the mental and economic load of just getting to a conference, and why she even bothered. At the end of the episode, Whitney talks about the logistical challenges of conferencing when you’re exclusively breastfeeding an infant. Also Donald Rumsfeld makes an appearance. And finally, #blackgirlmagic!
