I agree, Zibby. Too often authors only hear the bad or focus on the bad. Why not spread the love for someone’s writing instead? Most people don’t realize how much authors live to hear these four words: I loved your book!
I love this! Always speak up - it feels so good to hear, and even better to share. I write a Founders Friday post on IG for this very reason. I am privileged to interview so many incredible women breaking barriers (and with only 2% of VC funding going to women it's no joke to start a business) which spotlights not only their achievements but their bravery, vulnerability, creativity and more. Whether they are just starting out or are well established, women lifting up women is the best. Happy weekend! xx
You’ve got this Zibby!!! Sending you strength and calm to manage this super exciting, hectic and amazing time in your life. I can’t wait to meet you in Austin next weekend!! 💗
Oh my gosh Zibby. First of all, thank you so much for the shout-out. The good vibes from New Year, New Chapter have carried me through this entire rainy week! Second, the last scene of this piece gave me actual goosebumps. So good. And finally, thank you for keeping it real. Just because your decades of hard work are paying off and your professional dreams are coming true doesn’t mean that life is perfect! It’s so important for moms to hear that we all drop a ball or two (or several) sometimes (or often). Thank you as always for your inspiring words! 🩵
Love this. And sending you energy to manage your mountainous load! And, yes, Julie's book is wonderful and so relatable! Thanks for doing all you do for so many, and for being such a force of positivity!
YES!! So many folks rev up the energy to complain or gripe but seem enervated when it's time to lift someone up -- to take a few minutes to write a review, to say "thank you," to show gratitude -- and yet it means so very much to the person out there trying, sweating in the arena, creating. I accept the challenge to do even more! Have a great weekend everyone!
Love this Zibby! You’re the one I’m telling today. I love your book! Excited for Blank. Thank you for being you and playing big and beautiful. I truly am grateful for you and the Zibby-verse, the nicest people I’ve met and continue to meet, your books, podcast, retreats, events, book club and more and your realness. Saturday’s event was The Best!! Oh and you’re so fun! This gave me the chills, too, with awe and gratitude thinking about the little things we do that positively affect others and our kids growing up being kind. Thanks for the daily dose of Zibby and hope your support grows as your newness, light, and impact you make in the world continues to grow🩵💫💫
Pre-ordering The Cemetery of Untold Stories (loved How the Garcia Girls Lost Their Accents) and The Wedding People! Of course, I have pre-ordered Blank 💖

Thank you for the Zibby Retreats. I enjoyed being at Hampton Bays. I felt like I belonged.
Totally relate to managing stress and my many moods poorly. But, you've got this. And glad you got that zing! :) Shabbat shalom!

GREAT post. You’re doing amazing things! So impressed.
Congrats! I follow many authors on IG and tell them how much I enjoyed their book.
It makes my day when people tell me I made them laugh. 🥰
