WELCOME TO THE LIFE OF YOU!
The bonus series where we tackle your dilemmas and share advice to navigate life’s trickier moments.
This week, I’m joined by bestselling author and former lawyer Abigail Dean—writer of the Sunday Times hit Girl A and the powerful new novel The Death of Us.
Today:
💼 Lily asks whether she’s wasting her ‘successful’ career—and how to start living a life that feels like hers.
📝 We discuss the myth of perfect creativity, and why done is always better than perfect.
👶 Katie wonders if she’s cut out for motherhood—can you ever really know before it happens?
