Bestselling author Kaira Rouda joins Zibby to talk about her two novels, The Next Wife and Somebody's Home, both of which she wrote during the pandemic lockdown. Kaira shares how she took the advice she gave to other women in her career prior to writing and became the novelist she always wanted to be, what inspired her to make the shift to domestic thrillers, and what advice she gives to her children about their own writing.

Previous Episode
"We wanted to give you that final nudge and the permission to understand that you are not alone." Zibby is joined by Zelmira Crespi and Maria Montt, co-authors of Happy Mom, Happy Kid. The three talk about their experiences as working moms, the research Zelmira and Maria conducted for this book, and what they found to be the best solution for striking the healthiest work-life balance. Zelmira and Maria also share their most impactful finding: kids just want to be around happy parents, regardless of how that happiness is achieved.

Next Episode
Clinical psychologist Dr. Inger Burnett-Zeigler joins Zibby to discuss her new book, Nobody Knows the Trouble I've Seen, which grew from her 2018 New York Times article, "The Strong and Stressed Black Woman." Inger and Zibby talk about the different ways in which Black women are sharing their experiences through both fiction and non-fiction, the effects of intergenerational trauma, and how Inger's grandmother not only inspired her to write this book but to also claim all of the goodness the world has to offer.
