Her story collection, Heartbroke, won the California Book Award and was a New York Times “Best California Book of 2022.” Her writing has appeared in The Paris Review, Marie Claire UK, People, The Cut, Wall Street Journal, No Tokens, and others.

“One of the things that I really wanted to focus on, and I felt it immediately after meeting Lina the housewife in Indiana [played by Betty Gilpin in the show], whose husband no longer wanted to kiss her on the mouth, I felt like this woman was as important as the Queen of England, as important as Napoleon. I felt her dreams and fears are just as universal as someone who has defeated an army and the only reason we're not hearing about her is because we have these sorts of rules in place for what possesses historical significance. And I don't really think that that's necessarily true,” says Lisa Taddeo, author of the book Three Women, on which her new TV show is based.  In today's episode, we speak to Lisa Taddeo, creator of the show Three Women that stars Shailene Woodley, Betty Gilpin, DeWanda Wise and Gabrielle Creevy as “ordinary” women searching for their sexual identity and fulfillment in disparate and surprising ways. The show is an intimate, often stark portrayal of forbidden female desire and the consequences of that desire – both good and bad.  We also talk about writing the “female gaze” into the scripts, filming with prosthetic penises, the power the book Twilight has on teenage girls, and the uncanny way our mothers influence our own sexuality.  “My mother made up her face every morning, even when she wasn't going to leave the house. Who is she? My father sees her before she puts on her face as they say, so it's not for him. Nobody is coming to the door today, so it's not for them. It's certainly not for me, because I see her without makeup when she washes it off at night. So, who is it for, you know? And that was a question I had but didn't really know how to frame,” Taddeo says.  To hear more about the groundbreaking show Three Women that's airing on Starz, listen to the podcast. Trigger warning: contains mentions of sexual explicit material, sexual assault and trauma.

I wasn't expecting, through Jennifer Romolini's memoir Ambition Monster, to feel as seen as I was. About workaholism. Ambition addiction. Achievement addiction. Why I am that way. Why I experienced debilitating burnout, which, if you've ever experienced true burnout, you know what I mean when I say it is truly debilitating. And then, from the book to this conversation—I don't like to play favorites, but this conversation has to rank up there with my absolute favorite episodes of this show's 215 or so episodes. It felt more like a therapy session than an interview. Whatever you want to call it—hustle culture, Girl Boss-ing it, I heard a new term this week actually called “grindset” instead of “mindset”—whatever you want to call it, I know I'm not the only one influenced and affected by it. Jennifer's book is about what happens when ambition—which certainly is a good thing—turns bad. What happens when workaholism sneaks in, and how this actually relates to childhood trauma. What happens when you get everything you've ever dreamed of, and then realize that it's not enough to fill that hole inside you. And, at last, filling that hole with what is really sustaining, and it's not work. Achievement addiction and ambition addiction and constantly trying to prove yourself, that addiction—it may not be drugs or booze or gambling or shopping, but it's an addiction, nonetheless, and nothing done to excess like that is good for you. Jennifer raced up the professional ladder and reached the apex of success: she had a high-profile, C-suite dream job, and even traveled around the country giving speeches on how to make it and what it feels like to have made it. Beyond that, she had a handsome husband, a beautiful child, but, as the book puts it, “beneath this polished surface was a powder keg of unresolved trauma and chronic overwork. It was all about to blow.” This book will make you rethink the way we work, and rethink ambition on the whole. Jennifer co-hosts the podcast “Everything Is Fine,” which examines life for women over 40, with Lucky magazine founding editor Kim France (the show is one of my all-time favorites, though I'm not quite 40); she's also the author of Weird in a World That's Not: A Career Guide for Misfits, Fuckups, and Failures, and her work has appeared in outlets like The New York Times, Elle, Fast Company, Vogue, and more. She was a magazine editor in the 2000s, won awards for websites she edited in the 2010s, was a former deputy editor at Lucky alongside Kim, and was also the former Chief Content Officer of ShondaLand.com (as in, yes, the one and only Shonda Rhimes), Vice President of Content for Zooey Deschanel's HelloGiggles, a writer, speaker, and digital media consultant who likes talking and thinking about women and work. In 2019, Jennifer was asked to be one of 10 authors tasked with creating The New York Times' “Working Women's Handbook,” so, yeah, she knows a little bit about women and work. Ambition Monster examines the lies women were and are sold about work and one of my least favorite three-word combination ever, “having it all,” and before we get into it, I should warn you that there is some ample cursing in this episode, as there tends to be when a subject resonates so close to home.   Ambition Monster: A Memoir by Jennifer Romolini “Society's Twisted Pleasure in Seeing Strong Women Fail” in Variety True Love by Jennifer Lopez Three Women by Lisa Taddeo

My guest today is Oonagh McDonnell, the founder of It's Her, a social enterprise based in Manchester that researches, develops and delivers collaborative and engaging activities, courses and workshops that support women and help them change their narrative.Oonagh's story is rooted in adapting to adversity and overcoming loss, beginning with her mother's death when she was eight years old, which left her feeling responsible for three younger siblings.  After studying at Manchester University, she developed a love for the city and the diverse voices of the women who call Manchester home. The devastating loss of her sister necessitated Oonagh to completely change her career,  shifting her focus and seeking opportunities in the Middle East that would not have been available in the UK.  Her experience observing women in Saudi Arabia who forged their life, despite their obstacles sharpened her focus on the still considerable barriers to equity in the UK. Oonagh founded It's Her, a social enterprise aiming to enable all women to achieve equity.  Oonagh believes that when women put themself in a position to thrive, the whole family and society, in general, reap the benefit. Reference You can find out more about Oonagh's enterprise It'sHer: www.itsher.ukThe Book I chose for Oonagh is Three Women by Lisa Taddeo.

My guest this week is never happier than when she's making her readers feel uncomfortable. Lisa Taddeo was a skint journalist when she wrote the groundbreaking book, Three Women - the true story of the intimate desires of three American women. A bestseller on both sides of the atlantic, it is now being made into a TV series starring Shailene Woodley as the author. But more than that, Three Women made millions of women take a long hard look at their own wants, needs and desires and the many ways they'd sublimated them.Lisa followed that up with her first novel, Animal, and has now published a collection of short stories, Ghost Lover, in which she analyses, love, grief, obsession, ageing, body image, and, of course, sex.I've interviewed Lisa before, so I thought I knew what to expect: sex, rage, more sex, more rage. But this was not the chat I expected to have. Lisa was in a contemplative mood and we found ourselves dissecting women and power - or the lack of it (and this was before the supreme court overturned Roe v Wade); the way power is given with one hand and taken with the other and how success stitches up women or families. Lisa also opened up about how her mother's fear of ageing affected her and learning not to be afraid to put a value on herself.You can buy all the books mentioned in this podcast at Bookshop.org, including GHOST LOVER by Lisa Taddeo, and the book that inspired this podcast, The Shift: how I lost and found myself after 40 - and you can too, by me!And if you'd like to support the work that goes into making this podcast and get a weekly newsletter plus loads more content including transcripts of the podcast, please join The Shift community.

The New York Times bestselling author of Three Women and Animal Lisa Taddeo returns to talk with Zibby about her latest book, Ghost Lover, a collection of short stories. The two discuss how they both use language to describe their grief to those who may have not experienced as much loss as they have, why Lisa wanted these stories to all focus on women and love without a male perspective, and what she does to make her writing literary but accessible.

Bestselling author Lisa Taddeo has put women's stories front and center in all of her books. Her work explores how women navigate sexual desire, sexual trauma, and sexual double standards--and it is utterly fascinating and captivating. For today's episode, I sat down with Lisa to talk about these prominent themes in her writings and what they tell us about women's sexuality. Lisa's first nonfiction book, Three Women, was an instant #1 New York Times bestseller and is currently in production as a series at Showtime with Shailene Woodley set to star. This book takes a deep dive into the sex lives and relationships of three American women who live in different parts of the country. Following Three Women, Lisa published her debut fiction novel Animal, which tells the story of Joan, a woman who has endured a lifetime of cruelty from men—and eventually forges the power to strike back. Lisa's latest book, Ghost Lover, is a collection of short stories that feature a series of women who are searching for—and frequently struggling to find—fulfillment in their lives. We discuss all three of Lisa's books, including where she drew her inspiration, the major themes (including why sex and death run through all of them), and some of the sexist criticism her work has evoked.

In conversation with Hayden Dunbar, assistant editor, The Sewanee Review Lisa Taddeo is the author of the No. 1 New York Times bestseller Three Women, the ''staggeringly intimate'' (Entertainment Weekly) and extensively researched true story of the sex lives of three unconnected women in the U.S. Winner of the best narrative nonfiction book of the year at the British Book Awards, it was chosen as the best book of the year by numerous media outlets and was adapted into a television series by Showtime. Taddeo is also the author of the acclaimed novel Animal, worked as an associate editor at Golf Magazine, and has contributed work to The New York Times, Esquire, Elle, and Glamour, among several other publications. A collection of nine stories-two of which were awarded Pushcart Prizes-Ghost Lover is about the obsessions, manias, and fevered desires inherent to love and sex in the digital age.

Let's start with a simple truth: Lisa Taddeo's work is anything but slow. Time and time again, her readers are pulled into honest—devastating—examinations of rage, grief, and what it means to be a person in the world. From her acclaimed work of nonfiction, Three Women, to her unforgettable debut novel Animal, Lisa's writing is not merely an invitation into a story but a rallying cry to recognize the full scope of the human experience. The same can be said for her latest book, Ghost Lover, a collection of stories that "brings to life the fever of obsession, the blindness of love, and the mania of grief." For Lisa, life moves quickly, especially now. But her enduring exploration of grief creates space to talk about the (often) slow process of overcoming heartbreak or pain. And because of this, her stories stay with you long after the last page. In this interview, Lisa shared more about the pace that drives her practice, why she's drawn to short stories, and what she's learned from writing about people. This episode also opens with a reading by Francesca Giacco. A transcript of this episode is also available on our website: https://www.slowstoriespodcast.com/community/slow-stories-podcast-show-notes-lisa-taddeo

On this episode of Complicated Conversations, we are thrilled to welcome back Lisa Taddeo, the author of the #1 New York Times bestseller Three Women, which she is adapting as a dramatic series at Showtime, and the novel Animal. Her short stories have not only been nominated for, but won the Pushcart Prize -- twice. Both of those stories are included in her new collection, GHOST LOVER, which is out now! ** We discuss the complicated relationships that complicated women have with one another, and why Lisa continues to explore and expose the darker side of how women treat other women. Listen to hear why Lisa feels a kinship with Taylor Swift! (01:24) ** But if there's a ray of hope in the darkness that sometimes shrouds relationships between women, this collection shows that women can be both the greatest source of our pain but also be our deepest source of healing. (05:38) ** Continuing with the dynamics among women, we praise Lisa for nailing the scathing internal self-criticism and loathing that often consume women. Lisa gives us advice on how to embrace the things that make us feel good and to change the narrative around youth, thinness and the ideal of physical perfection. (13:18) ** We get the scoop on the upcoming Showtime adaptation of Three Women. (25:00) ** Lisa explains how focusing on the female gaze was a priority for her in the adaptation, showcasing how the sex feels for the woman. (27:26) ** We find out what's next for Lisa…there are lots of projects in the works! (29:42) ** In our final minutes, we turn back to Ghost Lover to discuss the armor women build around grief and pain (for which we are harshly judged), and the vulnerability infused in Lisa's writing. She says we SEE her and GET her, but the feeling is completely mutual. (31:21)

Back in the before times, I had an idea to launch a podcast that celebrated the achievements and lives of women over 40. With a couple of friends and an idiot-proof microphone I recorded the first series of what was to become The Shift. This is a replay of one of the first episodes I ever recorded - with my friend Jojo Moyes. Little did we know that two and a half years later we would only have seen each other a handful of times and EVERYTHING would have changed irrevocably. It's a real blast from the past in so many ways.Here are the original show notes:How does it feel to suddenly become ultra-visible just as the world is trying to invisible you? That's what happened to this week's guest, mega-selling novelist Jojo Moyes, when the book her old publishers didn't want to publish - Me Before You - became a global bestseller and smash-hit movie in her mid-40s. Since then every book Jojo has written has been a bestseller and she's sold the movie rights to pretty much everything she's ever written. (Not remotely jealous.) Her latest, The Giver Of Stars, the transporting story of a group of women setting up a horseback library in the Appalachians is currently at the top of the bestseller lists and a movie is underway. But life wasn't always like that. Far from it. Jojo is funny and frank about the impact of stratospheric success on her professional and personal life. How it felt to be suddenly visible in her late forties. Health, fitness, freedom, a new found love of clothes and why she feels better than ever at 50. She also reveals how she finally overcame Imposter Syndrome, why she no longer suffers fools and how making new friends at 50 has been a revelation. The Shift (on life after 40) with Sam Baker is created and hosted by Sam Baker, edited by Emily Sandford. I'd love to hear what you think - please let me know on twitter @sambaker or instagram @theothersambakerThe Shift: How I (lost and) found myself after 40 - and you can too by Sam Baker is out now in hardback and available to buy here.The Giver Of Stars by Jojo Moyes is out now in paperback and available to buy here.Jojo's book recommendation: Three Women by Lisa Taddeo, out now in paperback and available to buy here.

Another heavy one, y'all. My guest this week is Chelsea Bieker, author of the new collection HEARTBROKE. Here we are thrust into the world of California's Central Valley, its landscapes, textures, history, and people. Bieker highlights the fraught relationships between parents and children and shows us the very limits of human endurance. From wandering artists selling more than dreamcatchers on a toxic beach to delusional cowboy fantasies to the dreams and regrets of raisin farmers, the collection is layered, witty, and never ceases to surprise. For this episode, Chelsea chose a recent novel and a polarizing one, Lisa Taddeo's ANIMAL. We discuss the nature of an unlikeable protagonist, the difference between trauma sharing and dumping, the relatability of power imbalanced relationships, and so much more. As always, no spoilers for any of the books discussed. Buy Chelsea's book: https://bookshop.org/books/heartbroke/9781646221271 Follow the podcast on instagram and twitter @yfbpodcast

As part of the Rendez-vous littéraires rue Cambon [Literary Rendez-vous at Rue Cambon], the podcast "les Rencontres" highlights the birth of a writer.Listen to author and critic Erica Wagner in conversation with Lisa Taddeo, writer of “Animal”, her first novel published by Simon & Schuster in 2021. Together, they mention her strong connection with fiction, her interest in questioning what society expects from women and the importance of self-criticism in the writing process.Lisa Taddeo, Animal, Bloomsbury Publishing, 2022.The New York Times Company.

In today's episode of Dua Lipa: At Your Service, Dua welcomes Lisa Taddeo, journalist and bestselling author of books like 2019's Three Women and 2021's Animal, to the podcast for a conversation about writing about women – their strengths, their weaknesses, and the care and attention it takes to tell women's stories authentically. From her origins covering the Rachel Uchitel and Tiger Woods tabloid scandal, to becoming one of the literary world's most in-demand voices – and the inside scoop at her upcoming short story collection, Ghost Lover, and the soon-to-be-released TV adaptation of Three Women (“it's been a humbling, humiliating, and really beautiful experience”) – Lisa opens up about her journey, one of pursuing life's passions to their fullest.
