Today we're talking all things memoirs!
First, hear our checklist of what gives you the right to write a memoir in the first place (looking at you Bachelor Nation). Then we're discussing who hasn't written a memoir yet that we absolutely need to spill all their dirty secrets in the pages of a best-seller. Somehow we get on a tangent about Bobby Flay that we promise is relevant.
Finally, we're sharing our favorite memoirs including the one that inspired this podcast.
Memoirs we love:
- Wild by Cheryl Strayed
- Educated by Tara Westover
- Maid by Stephanie Land
- The Foundling by Paul Joseph Fronczak
- Spare by Prince Harry
- Living Brave by Shannon Dingle
Books we've read recently:
Abigail: The Wellness trap by Christy Harrison
Emily: 11/22/63 by Stephen King
