Today on Underline That, Jessica Guerrieri rejoins Steph for a conversation about motherhood, sobriety, sisterhood, publishing, reviews, recovery, generational trauma—and the way women can hold two completely contradictory emotions at the same time.
We dive into Jessica’s brand-new novel, Both Can Be True, the emotional reality of debut year, audiobook obsession, unlikable female characters, and the complicated beauty of womanhood in your 30s and 40s.
The conversation is funny, vulnerable, honest, millennial, and packed with the kinds of truths that make you pause and think: Wow, me, too.
We discuss:
– Why “both can be true” resonates so deeply with women
– Motherhood, resentment, gratitude, and identity shifts
– Recovery, connection, and found sisterhood
– The reality of publishing after the debut dream comes true
– Goodreads, reviews, and protecting your mental health as a creative
…and so much more!
Jessica’s new novel, Both Can Be True, is available now wherever books are sold.
Thank you so much for listening!
