EXCLUSIVE'Life doesn't come with a handbook, but friends help': Dawn O'Porter on the power of female friendship on The Life of Bryony podcast

Welcome to Life of Bryony, where we explore life’s messier moments.

GUEST: DAWN O’PORTER

In this week’s episode, I’m joined by author Dawn O'Porter to discuss female friendship, navigating adulthood, and her latest novel, Honeybee.

Dawn shares insights from her own life, including the challenges of motherhood, the unexpected strength found in friendships, and how we sometimes need a varied selection of friends to get us through the toughest times.

Our conversation covers everything from the pressure to have it all together to the messy, real, and often humorous sides of growing up.

Dawn's candid reflections bring a refreshing perspective to the pressures we face in adulthood and how friendship can be a lifeline. Plus, we get into how her experiences inspired her to write Honeybee, a story about love, loyalty, and female solidarity.
