Kate Spencer: From The Dead Moms Club To Rom Coms

Author, podcaster, and UCB alum Kate Spencer joins me to talk about turning life’s toughest moments into art. We talk about her raw, funny memoir The Dead Moms Club, and how she pivoted from that to romance novels (that happen to be funny). Kate explains how long-form improv principles help her writing process. We get into the disgusting messiness of draft revisions, overcoming creative self-doubt, managing ADHD, and shifting your definition of success away from external metrics. Plus, Kate’s choicest red carpet celebrity encounters, morning creative routines, and why showing up for an audience of one matters just as much as an audience of thousands (which, if you get that, you’re doing great).
