Lyndsay shares how her Instagram poetry took off during COVID, leading to viral posts, a growing following, and eventually a book deal—all while pregnant! She and Zibby discuss some of their favorite poems, unpacking deeper themes of body image, self-acceptance, and societal pressures. Finally, Lyndsay talks about the humor in her poetry, her advocacy for body neutrality, and her ideas for future projects!Purchase on Bookshop: https://bit.ly/47qxwH3Share, rate, & review the podcast, and follow Zibby on Instagram @zibbyowens!** Follow @totallybookedwithzibby on Instagram for listening guides and more. **(Music by Morning Moon Music.
