"No one tells you how scary it is to become a mom. You're responsible for a whole other life." Amy Koppelman joined Zibby for an IG Live to talk about her book, A Mouthful of Air, which is being re-released to celebrate the premiere of its film adaptation, which Amy wrote the screenplay for and directed. They talk about why so many women suffer during the postpartum period in silence, how Amy wanted the book to help start a conversation about maternal mental health eighteen years ago, and the experience of adapting a very personal book for the screen with Amanda Seyfried.Purchase on Amazon or Bookshop.Amazon: amzn.to/3xUiEy9Bookshop: bit.ly/3xVHe1p** Follow @totallybookedwithzibby on Instagram for listening guides and more. **(Music by Morning Moon Music.
