Nora Ephron Talks 'The Breakover', New HuffPost Video Series

HuffPost Editor-At-Large Nora Ephron and HuffPost Divorce Editor Sara Wilson recently sat down to talk about "The Breakover," a new video series from The Huffington Post.

The pair revealed how they came up with the idea for the series one day over tea, what a "Breakover" is, and why it celebrates a specifically female brand of personal reinvention following any of life's major seismic shifts, whether wanted or not--from getting fired from a job to going broke to ending a marriage and beyond.
