5. Kate Millar | Poet + Journalist | Transition to the U.S. & Living Deeply in the Age of Instagram

Welcome to Tears and Joy in Your Twenties! Navigating your twenties comes with a lot of highs and lows, a lot of freedom, and a lot of uncertainty. This podcast exists to create a space for conversations about all of it. Each week, you’ll hear interviews of Gen Z creatives, entrepreneurs, and leaders telling their stories-- tears and joy and all. This is meant to be a reminder that you are not alone, there’s so much to look forward to, and you can savor this season-- right in the messy middle.
Today’s episode is an interview with Kate Millar, a poet and writer from Edinburgh, Scotland currently completing her MFA in poetry in at The New School in NYC. We talked about the challenges of navigating transition to a new country, realizing we’re more impressionable in our early twenties than we’d like to admit, looking poetically at life by “paying attention” to everything around us rather than looking too deeply inward, and thinking about what’s going on with Gen Z (namely ourselves).
