Get ready for an amazing conversation with someone you love to hate!

Ann Dowd (aka Aunt Lydia) joins us for a candid conversation about building a career on her own terms and why her most powerful roles came later in life. Best known for her chilling portrayal of Aunt Lydia in The Handmaid’s Tale, Dowd reflects on the faith and resilience it took to become one of the today's most compelling actors.

We dive into her journey as an actress, the realities of longevity in Hollywood, and how she approaches complex, morally ambiguous characters. Dowd also shares insights into the evolution of Aunt Lydia and what fans can expect from The Testaments, the highly anticipated continuation of the story.

Gracious and refreshingly honest, this episode is a conversation in patience and redefining success—on screen and off.
