    Description

    On this episode of Complicated Conversations, we welcome back Emily Henry to discuss her new novel, HAPPY PLACE. 
    In this unforgettable conversation, we ask Emily how it felt to hit multiple NYT bestseller lists; we get “on the couch” with Emily (which may be our “happy place”!) and analyze what parts of herself she is exploring through her heroine, Harriet; the ways love and relationships can transcend time and universes; how our parents’ marriages affect our views on conflict and care; and what happens when new doors open in our hearts
    Happy Place is out now! Buy it, read it, share it and listen to our spoiler-free interview wherever you get your podcasts.  See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

    In Pop Fiction Women we deep-dive into the complicated women of books, movies and TV shows, along with the women that bring them to life behind the scenes. Think Fleabag and Phoebe Waller Bridge, Normal People and Sally Rooney, and so much more. In each episode you can expect us to: * Break down the protagonist as we ask what makes her complicated? * Identify the best scenes, which can mean sweetest, funniest, or most badass. Anything we love. * Recount the cringiest scenes. The ones that make you squirm. Sometimes it’s self-sabotage, sometimes it’s growth, but it’s always part of the process of becoming our complicated selves. * Play arm-chair therapist in What’s Your Damage, Heather? An homage to the iconic line in Winona Rider’s Heathers, we discuss how these characters got to be the way they are. * “What She Said” - the segment where we scour every essay and interview with the women behind the scenes and share some of our favorite first person quotes. Real life is as interesting as fiction here. * Look into our crystal ball and ponder where these characters are six months later and five years later. Typically, Kate gets very real and Carinn gets buck wild. * Provide a takeaway, aka that part in the podcast where we try to sound deep. We leave you with some parting wisdom, challenge each other with thought-provoking questions inspired by the work, and urge you to “stay complicated.”
