Mary Pipher, A LIGHT IN LIFE: Meditations on Impermanence

Zibby is joined by renowned psychologist and New York Times bestselling author Mary Pipher to discuss her radiant memoir in essays A Life in Light: Meditations on Impermanence, which focuses on resilience and finding light in dark times. Mary Pipher shares details of her lonely childhood (and the library books that saved her), what it means to feel “squishy” in times of sadness, and her thoughts on the pandemic-related loss of personal connection. She also touches on each of her previous books and expresses how wonderful it has been to be an “activist on paper”.
