Ep 16: Editor, Author and Producer Joanna Coles on Living Life On Her Terms

"The Story Teller."  

Joanna Coles has been finding and telling stories since she was a young girl. She has been a writer, a publisher, a salesperson, a journalist, a reporter, an editor, an author and on-camera talent in a reality-tv show.  

She’s an original thinker, a ground breaker, a glass ceiling raiser, a mentor, and a reference point. She’s also the inspiration for a new tv show based largely on her life.  

She has worked for some of the world’s most iconic publications. The Spectator, The Guardian, The Times of London, and she has been the editor of Marie Claire and of Cosmo. And a year ago she was named Chief Content officer for Hearst Magazines. 

I talked to Joanna about her early lessons as a very young writer, about how a double murder changed the course of her career, and about her correspondence with the Queen.
