Vanessa Zoltan, podcast host, atheist chaplain, and author of Praying with Jane Eyre joins Zibby to talk about her book and the path that led her to write it. After not feeling connected to prayer while enrolled in divinity school, Vanessa tried to approach Charlotte Brontë's Jane Eyre as a sacred text. Vanessa and Zibby talk about how what it means to connect on a spiritual level with a secular book, what she loves most about the popularity of Vanessa's podcast, Harry Potter and the Sacred Text, and the influence her family's history with the Holocaust has had on her life and her work.Purchase on Amazon or Bookshop.Amazon: https://amzn.to/31cM6EfBookshop: https://bit.ly/3pdvaW9** Follow @totallybookedwithzibby on Instagram for listening guides and more. **(Music by Morning Moon Music.
