[Sarah Montana, Part 2]: The good and the bad of sharing your traumatic stories + the mindbending messages in Britney Spears’s memoir Ep 1048
Heads up: In this second part of my interview with screenwriter Sarah Montana, we discuss trauma and suicide, so please take care while listening.
Even without those discussions, in this episode Sarah goes deep into some major truths about life and you probably don’t want to be listening while you’re doing chores or around other people so you can let it all in. (I’m still processing it all! In the very very best way.)
Sarah talks about her own traumatic stories (without going into detail) and how there is incredible fulfillment that comes from helping others by sharing your story, AND there’s a shit sandwich that comes along with it
Fictionalizing your traumatic experiences to express the feelings while also creating boundaries (it also lets you say and do the things you wish you’d said and done in real life)
How Brittany Spears’s memoir got Sarah thinking deeply about success and freedom
Thoughts on how having power can trigger you to express it in very-no-good ways, just because you can, or what Sarah calls “the intoxication of power”
How having money does not equal safety
The writer’s strike as an opportunity to be a citizen, not just a worker
