they'd read the contract small print before their poo became household viewing. Until Gillian McKeith came along, poo was a subject as taboo as sex, especially in the UK. And just as sex is certainly a never easy subject to discuss, your bowels and their regularity take on much of the same awkward tone.
and then we'll go into some questions. So Gillian Anderson is an award-winning film, television and theater actor and producer, writer, and activist. She currently lives in London with her daughter and two sons.
No one cares. No one cares. And Gillian just had-- I think because, well, for many reasons, but that meditation. You know, when you meditate regularly, you-- anyway, you intuit.

Flashback to the Gillian McKeith days when she was scraping around in plastic boxes full of poo, shouting at overweight mortified souls who probably wished they'd read the contract small print before their poo became household viewing.
It gives you a peek inside her brain. But what Gillian Tett says is that can produce a bad outcome of too much specialization, and then also a kind of culture developing
I think that any time you experience traumatic loss early on, it changes who you are and drastically affects your view of the world. Thank you so much Gillian .
They apply to everyone. But for the reasons that Gillian said, we need to start with women. Women do 75% of the work across the globe, earn 10% of the wages, and own 1% of the property.
point in her life, she actually wanted to start weight training. So she bought herself a Gillian Michaels DVD and two pink, 5-pound dumbbells. And could not actually physically lift them up to do a chest press because she was so weak. So from that point on, this is the point when she discovers Nerd Fitness, hops on the message boards and starts speaking with all the other folks on there that are doing strength training.
And there was this moment when the game is a couple of years late. It's like we're going to get Gillian Anderson and Mark Hamill to record the voices of these characters.
It just isn't necessary to live with. And if we look at rates of self-harm-- Gillian 's got a good figure on that. And addiction and eating disorders and depression amongst women in particular, you know, we have an epidemic.
And we've done about 12 of them in the UK. And we've had people like Benedict Cumberbatch and Gillian Anderson, Nick Cave, just these incredible people just bringing these letters to life.

Weird things we've done-- what was it? So that was kind of a cool-- I think it was cool-- weird thing you did as a fan of Gillian 's. Oh, sure, sure. So what has been a weird thing a fan has done for you guys?
A few? Just a few. So for those that have not heard of the Scully Effect, it's believed that Gillian 's character, Scully, who was a medical doctor, an FBI specialist, inspired many young women to pursue careers in science, medicine, and law enforcement, bringing an actual perceptible
Hi, everyone. I'm Laura Slabin, and I'm very excited to have with us today Gillian Anderson and Jennifer Nadel, who wrote the book, "We-- a Manifesto for Women Everywhere." I will start with their bios and a little bit about the book,
And I'm wondering what your hopes are for the women's movement, and in writing this manifesto, and et cetera. Well, it's interesting. You talked about the timing, because two years ago, when we started writing it, Gillian had this very strong sense that it should be called a manifesto.
It gives you a peek inside her brain. By the way, there's another interesting book, which just came out by Gillian Tett called "The Silo Effect," which argues this more generally for corporations.
Ever seen "The Lion King?" How do they do it? Find out, and learn their secrets in "Getting There, A Book of Mentors," by Gillian Zoe Segal. So why did I write this book?
