Heidi and Ellen were thrilled to talk to Zibby Owens about her path to becoming one of the most powerful and respected voices in the book publishing world. Zibby is an author, award-winning podcaster, entrepreneur, and CEO. She founded Zibby Media, a privately-held media company, in 2018, with her award-winning podcast Moms Don’t Have Time to Read Books. The company has since grown to include the publishing house Zibby Books, the magazine Zibby Mag, the podcast network Zibby Audio, the education platform Zibby Classes, and community events like retreats, a book club, and a writing community. This past month her publishing house released its first book, My What If Year by Alisha Fernandez Miranda. And this past weekend her first brick-and-mortar bookstore, Zibby’s Bookstore, opened in Santa Monica. She was celebrated as “New York’s Most Powerful Book-fluencer” by New York Magazine. Owens is a regular contributor to "Good Morning America" and other broadcast outlets. She is the author of the memoir Bookends: A Memoir of Love, Loss, and Literature, the children’s book, Princess Charming, and the editor of two anthologies. She lives in New York with her husband and her four children. Follow her on Instagram @zibbyowens.
