Introduction

Laura Dern and her mother, Diane Ladd, are two of the greatest living actors. Their new memoir Honey Baby Mine documents a series of honest, vulnerable conversations Laura and Diane had together after Diane was given a sudden, life-threatening medical diagnosis. They talk about why we tend to wear masks with the people closest to us,. How we heal from divorce and family ruptures; how we find a way to speak our truth even when it's incredibly hard.
