OurTeenage Nation Needs Us

Recently, people like Senator Elissa Slotkin (on The View) are suggesting that we are a nation of "angry teens" trying not to destroy ourselves. Lisa's 2021 book America Becoming was a deep dive into that idea – the notion that our country, at 250 years old, is just getting through its teenage period and ready to grow up.

In this episode, Lisa begins to explore how our retail environments are more than just places to shop – they're helping us define who we are and who we want to be. They're helping us craft our identities, build connections, and navigate these transformative years together.
