If you’re interested in unexpected conversations that go uncharted places, are remotely self-aware and like to laugh, then please join me as I continue to find my public voice on Reclaiming with Monica Lewinsky. (That’s me.) I will have honest, wide-ranging interviews with all kinds of people – recognizable names, regular folks, experts and friends – about what it means to reclaim what’s been lost or taken in the broadest sense. Every week, I’ll draw from my own unique experiences (like say, surviving a global scandal at 24 years old), and delve into the personal and often messy ways people find their way back to themselves. And because I love a good tangent, we’ll probably also touch on other stuff, too.

  • Tig Notaro
    May 6 2025

    This week on Reclaiming, we sit down with the unflinching and fiercely funny Tig Notaro, a comedian whose honesty and humor have redefined the boundaries of stand-up. In this raw and revelatory conversation, Tig opens up about the life-threatening battle with C. diff that left her physically depleted, and the surreal moment that followed just months after —when she stepped on stage just days after being diagnosed with cancer to deliver what would become one of the most iconic comedy sets of our time. She also speaks candidly about the devastating loss of her mother, who passed away while Tig was still in the hospital herself, and how that grief compounded an already unimaginable chapter of her life.

    With her signature deadpan delivery, Tig reflects on how facing mortality reshaped her approach to comedy, creativity, and connection. She shares her thoughts on emotional growth, vulnerability, and what it means to truly reclaim your life in the aftermath of trauma.

Think about sitting down to catch up with your most interesting, inspiring, and badass friend, and leaving the conversation feeling emboldened to approach your life from a more powerful and generous place, every time you talk to them. That's what listening to the Reclaiming podcast is like.

I admittedly checked out the first episode because I'm a fan of Monica Lewinsky for her activism and candid humor, and wanted to hear her tell her own story, in her own words. That episode was absolutely brilliant. The following two episodes have revealed that Monica is a very talented interviewer who creates a welcoming space for both her guests and her listeners. The guests so far have been authentic and fascinating, and speak of some of the most difficult things someone can go through, and show, in very real ways, what reclamation is all about. I'm so excited for the next episode.

As I write this as a queer person in the US in February 2025, I have to say that I've spent too much time lately dissocdissociating into comfort shows and mindless entertainment, scared and overwhelmed about these very frightening days we're in. I recently made a decision to not only revive my awareness about what is happening in the country around me, but to actively work on finding what makes me more empowered for the long fight ahead. Reclaiming is bringing me one step closer.

Powerful and Timely
