Tell Me How You’re Mighty Podcast

Welcome to Tell Me How You’re Mighty — the podcast about surviving infidelity and other hard stuff.

Your hosts are Tracy Schorn (aka “Chump Lady”) and Sarah Gorrell — a radio presenter with the BBC. A pairing that’s akin to inviting a junkyard dog to your tea party. Sarah brings the dulcet tones. Tracy brings the snark.

We talk about infidelity, relationships, parenting, and, of course, mightiness.

More about Sarah Gorrell

More about Tracy Schorn

Tracy is a journalist and cartoonist who runs the popular advice site ChumpLady.com. She’s also the author of “Leave a Cheater, Gain a Life: The Chump Lady’s Survival Guide” (Hachette, 2016).

A liberal arts major with a peripatetic career, her most recent straight job was state news editor at the AARP Bulletin. Covering voter suppression guides during the Trump years broke her brain and she returned to freelancing, which gives her more time to tell people to leave jerks.

A most recent accolade: her protest sign — a drawing of herself screaming into the void — now resides at the Smithsonian.
