Happy Half Hour (3/3/25)

Today, we’re chatting about a disgraced princess and a new student who must hide their forbidden love at their boarding school, a woman re-evaluating her sense of self in light of a late neurodiversity diagnosis while reuniting with her first love, and two Harvard students who are propelled into the intoxicating biotech startup world when they announce they’ve discovered the cure for aging.
