Sobre este episódio
<p>Stereotypes – the cat lady, the mother, the wife – can make us feel we need to play a part to fit the role others have cast us as. Broadcaster and author Dawn O’Porter wonders whether, far from being an entirely negative thing, sometimes that’s a necessary survival method.</p><br><p>In this chat, Fearne and Dawn share their experiences of grief after losing their cats, as well as their thoughts on making a point of crying when they’re alone. Dawn says she has a bit of a rebellious spirit, and explores how she’s very much a product of her early years.</p><br><p>Dawn’s novel, Cat Lady, is available now.</p><hr><p style='color:grey; font-size:0.75em;'> Hosted on Acast.
