How To Fail At Money And Dancing

•

In a cruel twist of fate, this week Grace is in London - to attend an event with Kate and Wills - and Izzy is in LA - eating tacos. This week comes complete with an unexpected erotica recommendation (guess who from), the latest of Izzy's LA escapades (Pamela Anderson makes an appearance) and why you should never watch Fleabag with your Dad. Plus, we do a deep dive on failure: In an era where women's successes are more celebrated than ever, have we lost reverence for the importance of failure? And do we have an obligation to be more open about our own failures?
