Friendship First with Miranda Kent & Danielle Weeks

We loved hearing about Miranda and Danielle’s creative project, but we gotta admit: it was their incredible relationship that really blew us away. They met when they were fourteen, y’all…and they’ve been BFFs and collaborators ever since.
We chat about:
- How to be successful in creative collaborations with a friend (we definitely took notes)
- Why getting through the difficult moments makes a creative partnership (and friendship!) better
- How fertility fears, a very British breakup, and true friendship led to Baby Love
- Our value as women — whether pursuing career, motherhood, both, or…neither
- Aging in Hollywood (and what happens when you decide you won’t just fade away)

- Trans women are women, TERFs are toxic, and why we need to keep unlearning gender binaries
- How we manage being besties who collaborate on projects — like this podcast and our new community — while also running other companies (whew)
- Phoebe Waller-Bridge is a genius, Fleabag is a work of art, and if it’s not clear already: we fucking love women creating, writing, starring, and generally owning shit onscreen
