Hannah Brown & 'Mistakes We Never Made': Complicated Conversations Series

Pop Fiction Women

On this episode of Complicated Conversations, we welcome Hannah Brown. You might know Hannah as the star of ABC’s The Bachelorette, or from her Mirrorball trophy win on Dancing With The Stars, or most recently her domination on Fox’s Special Forces: World’s Toughest Test, where she ended up being one of two women who completed the course and outlasted the other sixteen contestants, most of whom were professional athletes. She is also the New York Times bestselling author of the memoir, God Bless This Mess. We chat with Hannah about her debut novel, Mistakes We Never Made, a story about an epic coastal road-trip that gives two lifelong rivals a second chance at love. There's amazing friendship, a road trip to save a wedding with the guy you hate to love, and a woman really working through the non-relationship she has with her father.

We chat with Hannah about her lifelong love of reading and how it influenced her writing journey; the personal inspiration behind the book; her exploration of anxiety, trauma and the journey towards self-discovery and healing; the importance of relatability and her hope that readers can find a piece of themselves in the characters; our shared love of second chance love stories and rivals to lovers; and the importance of strong female friendship.
