In Her Words

Writing from the Heart with NYT Bestselling Author Jennifer Weiner


Listen Later

New York Times bestselling author Jennifer Weiner joins In Her Words to talk about her latest novel, The Griffin Sisters’ Greatest Hits, and the inspiration behind its music-infused world. We dive into how motherhood, guilt, and the many shapes of family fuel her storytelling, why she writes complex female characters, and what she’s learned from decades in publishing — from writing Good in Bed while working full-time to seeing In Her Shoes adapted for film. Weiner also shares advice for women pursuing creative careers, the evolving dynamics of mother–daughter relationships, and what’s next on her literary horizon.



In Her Words presents thoughtful conversations with leaders across entertainment from film and television, to media and gaming, and everything in between; as we talk about what it takes to make your mark in the industry, lessons these incredible people have learned along the way, and how they have found their way in an ever-changing environment.


With in-depth conversations and pre-submitted listener questions, each episode provides candid advice for navigating today’s entertainment industry, giving listeners an inside look at how key players got their start, and guidance for building the necessary toolkit to bring careers to life in film, TV, music, theater, graphics, writing, animation, and beyond.
