Manage episode 361831480 series 3471003
I had such a great discussion with Zibby Owens for this episode. Zibby has a delightful podcast all about books & authors, and a thoughtful new memoir, Bookends, which dives deep into grief.
Some topics Zibby and I discuss include:
- Zibby’s podcast, Moms Don’t Have Time to Read Books, and some of her favorite grief memoirs;
- Her own brand-new memoir, Bookends;
- Losing her best friend on 9/11, and the trauma and impact that had on her;
- The ‘grief brain’ and brain fog she experienced;
- Losing people close to her who left behind young kids;
- Her family’s experience with losing loved ones to covid;
- All about her grief platform & podcast, Moms Don’t Have Time to Grieve;
- Her thoughts on writing a memoir, including feeling vulnerable and having newfound compassion for memoir authors;
- Zibby’s tips for aspiring memoir writers; and
- Her summer reading pick in case you’d like to distract yourself with a good book.
I hope you enjoy my discussion with Zibby Owens.
