Jessica Lahey, THE GIFT OF FAILURE: How the Best Parents Learn to Let Go So Their Children Can Succeed + THE ADDICTION INOCULATION: Raising Healthy Kids in a Culture of Dependence - a podcast by Zibby Owens

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.
