I was the counterfeit and she was the authentic one, and that was my interpretation of that and I began to write that and as I began, that was my first experience with putting something that was meaningful to me down like that.
Have you ever wondered how someone navigates the glitz of Hollywood while carrying the weight of personal struggles? In this episode of 'Affliction & Resilience', Judy Mandel sits down with Patti Hawn, an entertainment publicist and author, who opens up about her journey through the changing social tides of the sixties. Patti, sister to actress Goldie Hawn, shares her experiences from working on blockbuster films like 'Ghost' and 'Bride Wars' to penning her memoir, 'GOOD GIRLS DON’T'.
Her story is a tapestry of resilience, weaving through her role as a replacement child, the trauma of disease, and the liberation brought by the sexual revolution. Patti dives into her complex relationship with her mother and how writing became her sanctuary. She also touches on her humanitarian work in India, Nepal, and Thailand. This episode isn't just about overcoming affliction; it's about finding meaning and purpose through life's challenges.
Whether you're grappling with your own struggles or looking for inspiration, Patti's story offers a beacon of hope.
