Every Rom Com 54: Eat Pray Love

This week on Every Rom Com we’re continuing our Self-Help Series with perhaps the ultimate story of healing through travel - “Eat Pray Love.” We’ll talk about how the best-selling book became a hit film; discuss author Elizabeth Gilbert, director Ryan Murphy, and more; and co-hosts Serena and Asa will inspire you with their thoughts about traveling solo as women. As always, stick around for our double feature recommendations, where we’ll recommend more women-led films to inspire your future adventures!
