Kerry Docherty on Reclaiming "Selfish"


Listen Later

Today, Sali sits down with Kerry Docherty. With a background in law and as a mindfulness coach, Kerry is a cofounder of Faherty Brand, where she works alongside her husband and her brother-in-law, pushing for progress in the fashion industry. Kerry is also the author of the upcoming memoir, Selfish, debuting April 21. In it, she shares an intimate look at her relationship to her career, her marriage, and herself—an account that’s honest, vulnerable, messy at times, and reclaims what it means to be called “selfish.”

Selfish: Unlearning, Reclaiming, and Telling the Truth, by Kerry Docherty, releases April 21 and is available for preorder now!
