Busy Philipps On Feminism & Finding Your Voice

What this episode covers

Trinny is joined by actress Busy Philipps to discuss feminism, finding your voice and that dreaded word, ”authenticity.” Welcome to Fearless, the empowering podcast that tells the stories of inspirational people who have overcome challenges and fears in their lives in order to thrive. In this candid conversation, Busy and Trinny discuss their experience of feminism as Gen X women, how Busy has used her platform to fight for reproductive rights in the US, and the no-holds-barred approach she took to telling her own story in her 2018 memoir, This Will Only Hurt a Little. Plus, they talk rejoining the dating pool after a long-term relationship, learning to live in the present and navigating that tricky mother-daughter relationship. Trigger warning: Contains discussion about sexual abuse.
