Summary

Comedian, podcaster, novelist and mum-of-three, Sophie McCartney initially found fame with her hilarious online content, which she started posting when the Covid lockdown put her fledgling stand-up career on hold. Since then, she hasn’t looked back, publishing her Sunday Times-bestselling debut Mother Hens in 2023. And now she's about to embark on her biggest tour to date, One Foot in the Rave. Jen catches up with Sophie to talk about the ageing process, “having it all”, and why becoming a mum doesn’t have to mean the end of your ambitions. Tickets for One Foot in the Rave are on sale now.
