In her debut memoir Selfish: Unlearning, Reclaiming, and Telling the Truth, Kerry holds nothing back — from skipping maternity leave and building a brand that consumed her, to an affair that shook her marriage and the reckoning that changed everything. She joins Liz to talk about what it really takes to live an authentic life and why it is the ultimate form of resistance for women, especially moms, to say "no."
