goop - the thursday newsletter

I’ve always believed that the most interesting women are the ones who refuse to make themselves small. The ones who don’t tidy away their contradictions to make other people comfortable. The ones for whom ambition, vulnerability, rage, tenderness, and pleasure coexist in one body—without apology, without explanation. When I sat down with Charli xcx for this week’s episode of the goop podcast, I felt that kind of energy. She talks about mess the way some people talk about discipline—as a source of power, creativity, and truth. Her new era isn’t polished or performative; it’s a declaration of selfhood in all its volatility and brilliance. We talked about the pressure to present neatly, the liberation in letting go of other people’s ideas of you, and the strange intimacy of becoming the woman you’re here to be—even when the world prefers a slogan. There’s something exhilarating about a young artist who isn’t interested in being digestible. Who opts out of palatability and chooses honesty instead. It made me think about how rare that actually is—and how much we need more of it.
