Larry King looked me in my face and asked who runs my business “for” me. What happened next changed everything.

I spent close to 40 years trying to prove my worth to people who were never going to see it anyway. This week, I finally quit. But the reason I quit isn’t what you think. It started at a party in the Hollywood Hills and ended with a question on a Zoom call that I couldn’t stop thinking about.

• What Larry King said to me at a Hollywood Hills party that made me want to commit a small, tasteful crime
• The pattern I didn’t see playing out for my entire adult life (and why it was never once a woman)
• The one question my massage therapist asked that I still can’t answer
• What happened when someone unmuted on a Zoom call to ask about my lipstick while I was teaching business strategy
• Why perimenopause made me put my phone in the fridge and my entire career into perspective
• The moment I realized the thing I was most offended by for 20 years was actually the answer
• What I’m doing now instead of teaching business and why I’ve never been more sure of anything

If you’re a woman over 40 who’s exhausted from proving yourself and wondering whether the thing you keep resisting is actually the thing… this one’s for you.
