Today, Valeria is joined by none other than the iconic Mandy Moore. From 2000s pop Idol and teen movie star to the blockbuster successes of Tangled and This is Us: Mandy Moore has already led an illustrious 20-year career and left her mark on the world. But she’s not done yet! There is so much more that Mandy has to explore and offer, and she and Valeria chat all about it. Together they explore what it was like to rise to fame without the influence of social media, reflect on motherhood, how to balance family life with a demanding career, and the importance of community. Plus, they take a behind-the-scenes look into the iconic It’s Totally Raining Teens Vanity Fair cover, and how Mandy is, now more than ever, leaning into her friendship with Hilary Duff.
Mandy Moore’s Audible Original Series “The Boar’s Nest” is now available to stream, exclusively on Audible: http://audible.com/TheBoarsNest
