Best-selling author and beauty junkie Marian Keyes was the star guest in this week's Hey It's OK Podcast with GLAMOUR's Editor-in-Chief Jo Elvin and Executive Fashion and Beauty Director, Claudia Mahoney.
The ladies discuss everything from #shortgirlproblems to hating Christmas and why it's OK to be a make-up loving feminist (Yes, that's right - wearing make-up doesn't make you an anti-feminist).
Marian also chatted about her new book Making It Up As I Go Along, which is a collection of essays and journalism. Talking about how she found inspiration for it, Marian said "I'm proud to say that I come from the sickest family in Ireland, so I have an awful lot of good stuff to share about that."
The Irish author also revealed that she is indeed a self-proclaimed "white witch."
Referring to her plane journeys, she said "When they say the thing of 'if there is a doctor on board can she make herself available,' I am unclicking my seat belt and halfway out my seat before I realise that I'm not actually an actual doctor with a degree."
"I am a white witch, I can heal people," she continued.
However, on the topic of Christmas Marian didn't seem as keen. "I absolutely abhor Christmas and I refuse to have anything to do with it," she said. And that isn't the only thing she isn't a fan of…
"I can't bear motivational quotes," she admitted.
