I had a great talk with the brave,brilliant,hilarious and iconic Author of the already NY Times Bestselling Book "Not My Type"Today I had the great honor of interviewing E. Jean Carroll about her life and new book and I think it was one of the best conversations I’ve had in a long time. She makes it very easy with her humor and brilliance.
I was very inspired by her story and the way she has handled it all with elegance and humor and she could not have been kinder to me. I hope we will get to talk again and I hope you will subscribe to her substack and get her book
