Vicki Lord on Hair, Identity & Coming Out at 50 | Sex, Self-Discovery & ADHD (Part 1)

In this episode, I talk with hair artist and author Vicki Lord about her brand-new memoir Let's talk... Sex, cuts and blow-dries: Choosing the chair instead of the closet (out in print October 22nd). A raw memoir about love, sexuality, ADHD, and self-discovery.

Vicki opens up about her journey from hairdresser to writer, from suppressing her sexuality for 30 years to living loudly and proudly as a lesbian at 50.

We talk about hair as a crown of identity, ADHD and relationships, the cycles of love, and the healing power of writing. Vicki shares how her book became therapy, and how talking about sex, confidence, and women’s pleasure can help others feel less alone.

Vicki’s openness and humour make this one of the most honest episodes yet.
