This week I spiraled out with writer & actor Mara Wilson! (Good Girls Don't, Matilda, Mrs. Doubtfire)  We talked growing up in Hollywood, being a chronic oversharer, the prison of being a "good girl," the drama of young adult relationships, anxiety & OCD,  My So-Called Life, and so much more! 
Plus, Mara shares a multi-layered shame upon shame upon SHAME story about embarrassing herself in front of multiple celebrities....and then sharing the story with a friend and feeling shame yet AGAIN by her response. 

Follow Mara on Instagram and Twitter @marawilson, check out her Substack, and listen to  her new audiobook "Good Girls Don't," available exclusively on Scribd!  It's A LOT about shame and she both wrote and narrates it, and it's amazing so GET AFTER IT! 

You can follow me on Twitter, Instagram, and TikTok @elykreimendahl, and the pod on Twitter and Instagram @podshamespiral, where I'm regularly posting fun video clips of especially juicy or hilarious moments from the episodes.
