"Discovering Truth after Getting Fired & Losing Love" with Journalist Amie Parnes

Amie Parnes

is a senior political correspondent for The Hill, a #1 NYT bestselling author, a TV analyst (it’s how we first met on my show on CNN) and most importantly, a mom. Amie is an avid reader of my Substack and reached out to tell me her own personal journey of Unraveling. I immediately invited her to join me to talk about the time she was suddenly fired as a single mom (welcome to life without a net) and also she told the heartbreaking story of how she lost her 7th grade crush-turned-adult boyfriend. Talk about catalysts for real life change, grief — and, ultimately, hidden gifts. Amie brought it all to this conversation — truth, vulnerability — and gave us the “real real.” She and I dropped some gems along the way on what we’ve both learned when the proverbial frying pan to the forehead first smacked us. Enjoy.
