42: Rebecca Lucy Taylor aka SELF ESTEEM on Aging, Ambition and the Pressure to Perform
The brilliant Rebecca Lucy Taylor joins Jo and Zoe for a wide-open conversation about aging, ambition, burnout and the pressure to perform a version of yourself that isn’t always true. They chat about her new book A Complicated Woman, the wobble around turning 40, egg freezing, misogyny in music, and learning to slow down after years on the road.
