Daria Burke, OF MY OWN MAKING: A Memoir

Award-winning business leader, investor, and speaker Daria Burke joins Zibby to discuss OF MY OWN MAKING, a lyrical, fearless memoir about facing the stark reality of your past and reclaiming the life you deserve. Daria opens up about her childhood with an absent father and a mother battling addiction, and then shares what it was like to discover a decades-old news photo of the car crash that killed her grandmother, reopening wounds she didn’t know were still raw. She also talks about her career in beauty and tech, the long journey to writing this memoir, the role of memory, and the radical act of telling your story on your own terms.
