I really love Chelsea, including Chelsea’s story about a pivotal moment when Jane Fonda intervened on her, and why she gave up being defensive after working with her therapist—which she’ll share more about.

Today, we also talk about how Chelsea’s learned to be honest with herself, and how she still had some secrets to reveal in her new book I’ll Have What She’s Having.

We talk a bit about jealousy and competition, and how Chelsea has big-sistered so many women, including me. We get into our Enneagrams as well, and something we’ve both observed about men while skiing.

Of course, I love how funny Chelsea is today, and always. I also think there is a powerful lesson for all of us in how comfortable she is with her own shadow and humanity—and how she does not project onto others. Once again, I’ve learned a lot from her.
