Kelsey Chittick, SECOND HALF: Surviving Loss and Finding Magic in the Missing

Comedian, inspirational speaker, and author of The Second Half Kelsey Chittick joins Zibby to discuss her book and how she has rediscovered joy in life following the immense grief of losing her husband. Kelsey recounts the heartbreaking story of how she learned her husband had passed, why she decided to include a section discussing the hopelessness she felt in the immediate aftermath of her loss, and what conversations she wants this book to help start. The two also talk about the importance of staying healthy and why it might be smart to prevent kids from playing collision-based sports too soon. Purchase on Amazon or Bookshop.Amazon: https://amzn.to/3OAUi50Bookshop: https://bit.ly/3vGaZ6zSubscribe to Zibby's weekly newsletter here.** Check out the Z.I.P. membership program—Zibby’s Important People!
