#16 Anne T Donahue - On Being A Writer & Not Caring What People Think

Anne T Donahue is one of my favourite funny writers. She is also my email pen pal after becoming pals on Twitter. She is a columnist for MTV, writes for Buzzfeed, The Guardian, Canadian Living, Hello Giggles, Refinery29, Thought Catalog and so many more - and her newsletter "That's What She Said" is my one of my all-time favourite weekly reads. We talk about our Ghosts Of Our Teenage Past, how to become a writer and build a contact list and that moment Anne learned she No Longer Gave A Fuck when an old high school friend tried to give her some "advice".

Ctrl Alt Delete subverts the traditional career show. Instead, it's for people who are more interested in shaping their work rather than letting their work shape them. The main focus is work, wellbeing and creativity. Hosted by bestselling author Emma Gannon, she has a gentle line of questioning that starts with work, and ends up wherever the conversations lead. Named Best Business podcast by Vuelio, Webby award nominee and named 50 Best Podcasts by Sunday Times, Ctrl Alt Delete is a gateway into new ideas – with past guests varying far and wide including Elizabeth Gilbert, Reni Eddo-Lodge, Jacqueline Wilson, Lena Dunham, Julia Cameron, Priyanka Chopra-Jonas, Ava DuVernay, Gillian Anderson and Mrs Hinch.
