Julie Vick, BABIES DON'T MAKE SMALL TALK (SO WHY SHOULD I?): The Introvert's Guide to Surviving Parenthood

Zibby is joined by Julie Vick to talk about her latest book, a parenting guide for introverts titled Babies Don't Make Small Talk (So Why Should I?). The two discuss what makes someone an introvert, an extrovert, or an ambivert (and why they're both introverts), as well as how the pressures of parenthood could feel even heavier with the added weight of social anxiety or shyness. Julie also shares she found her way back to writing after having her second child and how she cultivated a platform for herself on Twitter.
