Ever since Rosemary criticised Glennon Doyle on Instagram – and possibly thanks to the many mentions of her “bestselling” book, Untamed, we have been asked, several times, to discuss her on the podcast. Sadly, Beatrice is still refusing to read said book, so we broadened our horizons and decided to talk self help and self improvement more generally.
Things we mention include:
- Glennon Doyle, whose book, Untamed, Rosemary read for a book club Beatrice was meant to be a part of, too – and which Beatrice, upon listening to Rosemary’s incessant commentary, decided to skip
- The Rules
- The Game
- He’s Just Not That Into You
- You Lost Him at Hello: A Saleswoman’s Guide to Sealing the Deal
- How to Win Friends and Influence People
- Dr Tomas Chamorro-Premuzic
- Margaret Heffernan, Beatrice’s #1 crush
- Ellevest, investing for women
- Margaret Atwood, who Beatrice liked before she was cool
- Theory of Bastards by Audrey Shulman
- A book about how medical research and scientific information is all based on men’s bodies – Unwell Women by Elinor Cleghorn
- Devolution by Max Brooks
- Hamnet by Margaret Heffernan
- What We Don’t Talk About When We Talk About Fat by Aubrey Gordon
- The Nothing Man by Catherine Ryan Howard
