I have a very, very special episode this week. I am sitting down to interview my 16-year-old daughter, Fable who I've known Fable. I've known Fable since she was born. She's a powerhouse, a hand raiser, a leader in the classic sense, the opposite of invisible, the antithesis of afraid standing tall with flags in her hands. I am so proud of her and she has taught me so much.

This week, it is my honor to host the incredible, Amy Pence Brown. Amy is a body image activist. She's a writer, an artist, a public speaker, an educator, and a radical Idahoan. I've been following her for years. She's been a body image activist for 15 years and became internationally known for her radical stand for self love at the capital city public market in Boise, Idaho in 2015, which you might remember because it was viral. What excites me most about her is that if you tell her to stop, she goes harder. So excited for you to hear my conversation with her today which is very timely for this week.
Follow Amy on instagram @idaho_amy and see what she is going at her website.

There are a handful of writers whose voices I believe are so central to where we are culturally, whose voices truly define a moment by validating not only what is happening politically but also what is happening within the interior lives of women. And Lyz Lenz is one of them. She is the author of the book This American Ex Wife and the substack Men Yell At Me.
Check out Lyz's book and her substack.

This week I am finishing my conversation with Laura Hoenack. Laura writes a substack called Lulubeans about her complicated grief as a widow of suicide. She also writes about sex and dating and her work as a camgirl on OnlyFans. And recently she wrote a guest post from my substack titled I Am a Beautiful Thing, or How I Learned to Love My 40 Something Body by Posting Nudes on the Internet. And fuck yes, she's a beautiful thing and every single sense of the word.
Subscribe to Laura's substack and read her piece on my substack!

This week I am thrilled to introduce you to my friend, writer, widow mother and camgirl, Laura Hoenack. I met Laura early last year when she was a participant in a grief writing workshop that I teach. Laura writes a substack called Lulubeans about her complicated grief as a widow of suicide. She also writes about sex and dating and her work as a camgirl on OnlyFans. And recently she wrote a guest post from my substack titled I Am a Beautiful Thing, or How I Learned to Love My 40 Something Body by Posting Nudes on the Internet. And fuck yes, she's a beautiful thing and every single sense of the word.

In today’s episode I am chatting with Melissa Petro author of the book Shame on You: How to be A Woman in the Age of Mortification which is essentially what this podcast is all about. I have spent the entirety of my life battling and overcoming my own shame, weighing the so called morals of the societal masses against my own truth and need to tell it and in her book, Melissa not only shares her story of public humiliation but gives women insight on how to combat their own shame.
Buy Melissa's book and follow her on instagram.

This week I’m talking to Bassey Ikpi. Bassey is a writer, a speaker, an emotional wellness advocate and the NYT bestselling author of the book I'm Telling the Truth But I'm Lying which is one of the most beautifully written memoirs I’ve read in recent years. In her book, she writes about emotional memory, distinguishing it from actual memory and she asks us to get curious when it comes to our remembrance of things and how we metabolize those memories. I'm so excited to have her here today.

This week I'm thrilled to be speaking to author, academic and friend Amanda Montei. Amanda is the author of the book, Touched Out: Misogyny, Consent and Control, and the substack, Mad Woman. This episode is a little different than other episodes in that it's a sort of response episode to the election, specifically how shame shaped it and what we can do to reverse its effects. I feel so fortunate to have friends like Amanda, with whom I can talk honestly and openly without judgment or shame, but also be challenged, enlightened, and provoked to recognize truths beyond my own. So today on the show we talk about shame, white women, the 4B movement and how we have all been doing since the election.
Buy Amanda's book and check out her substack!

This week I’m very excited to host someone I have had the great honor of knowing and loving my whole life – my great Aunt Dot Fisher-Smith. Since I was a little girl, I gravitated toward Dot. I always felt a kind of solidarity with her that defies age. She is a sister to me. She is a friend. A mentor. A confidante. And I think, specifically with death, a subject most people are not comfortable talking about, let alone planning for, she has been a touchstone for me. Beyond my relationship with Dot, she is an activist and agitator who led anti-war protests during Vietnam, chained herself to Redwood trees as an environmentalist with Greenpeace and has lived a loud and proud life of civil disobedience.
Google Dot Fisher-Smith!! Here is the incredible YouTube documentary about her.

Before this podcast found its voice and I decided I wanted specifically to feature women who have been stigmatized or shamed for being quote unquote bad girls (my favorite kind) I had the idea to feature people who were in transition. So. I put a call out on Instagram for stories. Hundreds responded. It was so overwhelming it took me weeks to go through every email. I ultimately decided to go in a slightly different direction but Shannon, who responded to my original call for stories of transition was ALSO VERY ALIGNED with what I wanted to explore here on NO SHAME and I am THRILLED that she agreed to talk to me today because she is one of the bravest women I have ever met and when you hear her tell her story today you are going to absolutely understand why.
If you have a story of No Shame, I want to hear it. Please email me at [email protected]

My guest today is Suzanne Scanlon. She's the author of the book Committed: Of Meaning and Mad Women, a book that details Suzanne's experience being institutionalized in New York City in the nineties. Her book explores the nature of madness with such elegance and precise insight, and it made me want to know her and love her. Today on the show we talk about mental health, the hysterical woman archetype, and what it's been like to be called crazy.
Buy Suzanne's book! It's incredible.
