Power, celebrity and the aftermath of abuse with Olivia Petter, journalist and author of Gold Rush

In this episode, Emma-Louise sits down with journalist and author, Olivia Petter, to discuss Petter's debut book of fiction, Gold Rush.

The book covers so many vital and indeed urgent themes surrounding sexual abuse, trauma and the toxicity of celebrity culture, all of which they delve into during what is a totally fascinating interview.

“We give celebrities a power they don’t deserve," Petter writes, "a Power they haven’t earned. What happens when they exploit it?”
