This juicy tell-all will be intimate, honest, meaty, and chock-full of spoilers so that we don’t have to skirt around a single topic. You can help direct the conversation with the questions you bring, but we’ll likely rove across everything from maternal ambivalence (or straight-up rage) to feminist awakening; artmaking and the creative drive; who has the right to tell whose story; and maybe how the heck you create equal empathy for two characters in complete opposition to each other. Held virtually on May 22 at 1pm ET, roughly 3 weeks after the book arrives in your hands.

AVAILABLE AS A PREORDER BONUS ONLY.

As two women who’ve navigated their journeys through working motherhood together, they look forward to diving into these themes with you!
