Older. Madder. Wiser?

Pioneering author, podcaster and activist Bryony Gordon has long been open about her mental health, lifting the lid on a subject that was taboo for many years. Mad Woman is her phenomenal follow up - a decade later - to the brilliant number one bestseller Mad Girl. Join her as she talks to writer Marisa Bate about how our attitudes and understanding of mental illness is changing. Expect a candid and intimate chat covering everything from burnout and binge eating, living with fluctuating hormones, and whether mental illness is simply a chemical imbalance, or rather a normal response from your brain telling you that something isn't right?

'Bryony Gordon is a terrific, compassionate writer' Elizabeth Day
