Summary

Jane Fonda joins Call Her Daddy to offer her invaluable advice and wisdom. Jane talks about the importance of female friendship and reflects on the difficult times in her life that friendship helped her overcome. She speaks candidly about the pressure of being cast as the “girl next door" and the objectification that led to a 20-year battle with bulimia. Jane was married and divorced three times and now recognizes a pattern within those relationships. She worked hard to please her husbands and always prioritized their needs above her own. Jane admits she didn’t figure life out until she reached her 60’s, when her understanding of love, relationships, and feminism began to shift. This episode includes discussion of eating disorders. Please keep this in mind when deciding if, how, and when you’ll listen. For resources on these topics, visit spotify.com/resources.
