In this special episode of the podcast (in-person at the Whitby Hotel with a live audience!), Zibby interviews bestselling author Alisha Fernandez Miranda about her fun, witty new novel, SOMEONE’S GOTTA GIVE. Alisha shares the inspirations behind her story of Lucia, a Venezuelan American fundraiser-turned-expat navigating motherhood, marriage, and the high-stakes world of philanthropy in London. She also talks about her “What If Year” of internships (that led her to writing her memoir, MY WHAT IF YEAR); the paradoxes of wealth and giving; and the challenges of balancing ambition with parenthood.
