General Information

We welcome new members! This is great group to meet new women and you only have to attend the meetings that interest you. We meet from September-May. Each month will feature a new podcast. We ask members to listen to the podcast selected prior to the meeting on your own time. Then sign on to Zoom for a lively discussion promptly at 1:00 PM on the third Monday of each month. Let us know if you have recommendations on a podcast for future meetings.

Event Information

On January 20, eleven Pod Squad members met via Zoom to discuss the Dec. 31 episode of The Happiness Lab” hosted by Dr. Laurie Santos. This episode features Oliver Brickman, author of “Meditations for Mortals, Four Weeks or Embrace Your Limitations and Make Time for What Counts”.

Jean Forrey led us through Brickman’s seven tips for building  “imperfectionism”. These emphasized taking action - even if imperfect or less than 100% - rather than endlessly gathering information, planning, or checking of items off the daily list. We shared lots of personal experiences supporting these ideas.  However, we felt the tip to avoid worry for the future shouldn’t apply to preventive health care or financial planning.

The Pod Squad meets on zoom on February 17 and Mary Howard will lead the discussion of The Mel Robbins Podcast No. 70; The “Let Them” Theory: A Life-Changing Mindset Hack That 15 Million People Can’t Stop Talking About”.  Everyone is welcome!


Members scheduled for future months:
March - Patty
April - Linda
May - Cyndy

We are keeping a list of podcasts we have listened to previously. The Chicago chapter is starting a podcast group in January 2025 and is adding their selections to our list. You can view the list at this link.

Please be thinking of interesting and/or informative podcasts to share with the group! 
Contact Jane Harens or Linda Grant with any questions.
