About the Substack
A companion piece to my memoir Unshaming, here I talk about shame one post at a time. I cover addiction, relationships, sex, recovery, arts and culture. Sometimes when I feel particularly weak, I post work-in-progress.

Unshaming's recommended Substacks
I Gotta Story For You
I don't give advice or take it. I write 5-minute essays about love, death, grief, sleep, dating and Lisbon. I'm a journalist, copywriter, big fan of regrets and starting over. I include one photo each post of me actually writing for you.
