This week on Reclaiming, we sit down with journalist, attorney, and Today Show anchor Savannah Guthrie for a candid and heartfelt conversation about ambition, loss, faith and trusting the unexpected. Savannah reflects on her early days as a young intern in Washington, D.C., when dreams of law and journalism collided, and the serendipitous turns that shaped her path forward. She opens up about the profound grief of losing her father at sixteen—and how that loss carved out a sense of resilience and clarity that still guides her today. We explore the power of intuition, the courage it takes to say yes to uncertain opportunities, and the grace found in honoring both ambition and surrender.

Reclaiming with Monica Lewinsky

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.
