In this episode, we sit down with internationally bestselling British author Alexandra Potter. Known for her brilliantly humorous and deeply heartfelt romantic comedies, Alexandra has made a career out of celebrating the messy, hilarious, and ultimately beautiful realities of starting over.

We dive deep into the themes that have made her books beloved by millions around the world—from the fierce power of female friendship to finding love and purpose when life goes completely off-script. Alexandra shares the inspiration behind her smash-hit novel Confessions of a Forty-Something F##k Up the basis for the hit TV comedy Not Dead Yet, and her brand new 2026 release, So, I Met This Guy . . .

In this episode, we discuss:

The Myth of Having It All Figured Out: Why it's perfectly okay (and completely normal) to feel like a "f##k up" or a work-in-progress at any age
Friendship: How platonic soulmates, road trips, and intergenerational friendships often save the day when your romantic life goes sideways.
Finding the Funny in the Fails: Alexandra's advice on using humor and wit to cope with life's unexpected detours, breakups, and major pivots.

Whether you are starting a brand new chapter, leaning on your best friends to get through a tough week, or just in need of a good laugh and a reminder that you aren't alone, this conversation is a warm hug in podcast form.
