UPDATE: I'll be running LOTS of extra podcasts for you in the upcoming weeks, because human connection and entertainment are as vital as ever. Subscribe to both the podcast + my YouTube channel, starting now.

Comedian, actress and motivational speaker Kim Coles is famous for the comedy sketch show In Living Color and the TV series Living Single. She played Synclaire James, remember?

Kim and I first met a few months ago, when we were both invited to sit on a panel about women in media at the Digital Hollywood conference. When we met, I knew instantly I liked her and wanted to get to know her better, so I invited her on the show.

Fast forward a few months. Kim comes to New York and we record this episode -- at Sardi's, the iconic Broadway restaurant. (Shoutout to Sardi's and my friend Beth.)

Kim and I talk about:

  • Bill Cosby stories (but not the kind you're expecting)
  • Self-doubt
  • Projecting
  • Becoming a comedian
  • Hollywood
  • Expectations
  • Coincidences and synchronicities and opportunitites
  • Style
  • In Living Color

An Unfiltered Talk with Elle Macpherson: Life, Love, and Lessons from Rockbottom to Success

Today’s episode features an intimate and inspiring conversation with supermodel, entrepreneur and business powerhouse Elle Macpherson. She shares her incredible journey beyond the spotlight.

We dive into everything—her book, her wellness journey, her thoughts on confidence, sobriety, aging, breast cancer and lessons she’s learned about love and life. It’s raw, real, and filled with wisdom. Plus, if you think hitting your 60s means slowing down, Elle will prove you wrong! Trust me, it's a good one.

Topics we cover:

· Reflecting on pivotal life moments and their interconnected lessons.

· Embracing self-awareness before reaching rock bottom.

· Navigating family dynamics after divorce and learning from her children.

· Stepping out of comfort zones to build meaningful businesses like WelleCo.

· Overcoming health challenges, including breast cancer and menopause.

· Cultivating self-trust, inner peace, and a connection to nature.

· Finding joy, freedom, and purpose in your 60s.

· Lessons on love, resilience, and leading with the heart.

Resources we mention:

· WelleCo | www.welleco.com

· Instagram | @ellemacpherson

· Elle’s Book | Elle - Life, Lessons, and Learning to Trust Yourself

· AA (Alcoholics Anonymous): A community that helped Elle in her sobriety journey.

Really Famous with Kara Mayer Robinson - Uma Thurman + Elisabeth Moss + Kristin Chenoweth

Uma Thurman + Elisabeth Moss + Kristin Chenoweth

Really Famous with Kara Mayer Robinson

04/03/24 • 68 min

Twist! I reached into my archives for this, friends. Back in the day, I interviewed these three iconic women: Uma Thurman (Pulp Fiction, Kill Bill), Elisabeth Moss (The Handmaid's Tale, Mad Men) and Kristin Chenoweth (Glee, Pushing Daisies). These were VERY DIFFERENT interviews from my podcast talks because (a) back then, I was primarily a writer and a therapist, (b) I was only beginning to develop my interviewing style, (c) they were for written articles, or profiles, for magazines, so the purpose was different, and (d) I didn't have actual podcasting equipment yet; just a tiny microrecorder (which wasn't a match for the loud restaurant where I met Elisabeth Moss, unfortunately).

Anyway, I think you'll enjoy these. They have a rough, behind-the-scenes quality. And these women, wow. Icons. Layered. Real. Women.
