The two discuss Cindy's literary journey and the impact her 2004 essay collection, T<em>HE BETWEEN BOYFRIENDS BOOK</em>, had on readers, including Zibby herself. Cindy also reflects on her divorce, the challenges of infertility, and the emotional journey of adopting her daughter. She even describes a recent painful breakup, which she humorously considers as material for future writing. The conversation touches on themes of love, resilience, and the therapeutic power of storytelling.</p><p><br></p><p>Purchase on Bookshop: <a href=\"https://bit.ly/47xYKKF\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">https://bit.ly/47xYKKF</a></p><p><br></p><p>Share, rate, &amp; review the podcast, and follow Zibby on Instagram <a href=\"https://www.instagram.com/zibbyowens/\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">@zibbyowens</a>!</p>","author_name":"Zibby Owens"}
