Educator, journalist, and author of The Gift of Failure and The Addiction Inoculation Jessica Lahey joins Zibby to discuss her books and the parenting advice they provide. As someone who has recovered from a substance abuse disorder, Jessica shares how parents can change their attitude around drinking to help minimize the risk of addiction in their kid's future. She also tells Zibby about why research-based nonfiction is her favorite topic to both read and write, how the responses to The Gift of Failure helped her write The Addiction Inoculation, and what led her and her friend KJ Dell'Antonia to start their podcast #AmWriting.Purchase on Amazon or Bookshop.Amazon (The Gift of Failure): https://amzn.to/3LahG6UAmazon (The Addiction Inoculation): https://amzn.to/36rI4KQBookshop (The Gift of Failure): https://bit.ly/3JIODr0Bookshop (The Addiction Inoculation): https://bit.ly/3wJ14Q1Subscribe to Zibby's weekly newsletter here.
