Thirty-five. Out of work. Coping with a recent miscarriage. Life feels like one big avalanche for comedy writer Jo McDowell. But when she lands a meeting that could turn her career around, she has to make a decision: Tell the truth about her loss, or go for the laugh? A poignant and comedic look at what women have to push down, push through, and put up with to get to the top. Based on a true story.
