from Hard Knox with Amanda Knox · host Knox Robinson Productions

Zosia Mamet is best known for her starring role as Shoshanna Shapiro in the Emmy and Golden Globe Award-winning HBO series Girls. In this episode Zosia joins Amanda for a vulnerable and funny conversation about anxiety, imposter syndrome, and what it means to feel “too much” in a world that keeps asking for something else. They explore how control becomes a survival strategy, why writing a memoir can feel like publishing your diary, and how intuition might just be the most radical form of safety. Mamet released a collection of essays with Penguin Random House in November 2022, titled My First Popsicle: An Anthology of Food and Feelings. Her upcoming collection of essays about the challenge and magic of growing up in show business, titled Does This Make Me Funny?, will be released by Penguin Random House in September of 2025.
