Hi, I'm Zivie Owens, and you're listening to Moms Don't Have Time to Read Books.

I interviewed today's guest, Christina Geist, a while back, her new book, which just came out,

is called Sorry Grown Ups, You Can't Go to School, and her first book was Buddy's Bedtime Battery,

which was fantastic and essential if you're trying to get your kids to

sleep. I originally interviewed Christina thinking it would go on my kids' podcast, which I've put on

hold for the time being. It was called Kids Do Have Time to Read Books, and it's now on hold

because I just don't have time to do everything. So I'm bringing Christina's episode onto Mom's don't have time to read books. Pick up, sorry grown-ups, you can't go to school. It's a perfect back-to-school type book. So definitely check that out. And I hope you enjoy this episode. Thanks so much to my sponsor, LibroFM. LibroFM audiobooks lets you purchase audiobooks directly from your favorite local bookstore.

You can pick for more than 125,000 audiobooks, including many New York Times bestsellers,

and recommendations from booksellers around the country.

With Libro FM, you get the same audiobooks at the same price as other audiobook companies,

but you're going to be part of a much different story, one that supports the community. You can even choose which local bookstore you'd like to support,

which is so cool. Listeners of my podcast can get a three-month audiobook membership for the price

of one month. Just go to Libro.fm-L-I-B-R-O dot F-M and enter code Zibbi, Z-I-B-Y.

With every time you listen to an audiobook, now you can be proud that you're supporting a local

bookstore.

And the best part is that I have my own playlist on Libro FM, which is so cool.

So the books that have been on my podcast and that I'm recommending are now in my own

playlist. If you go to Libro FM slash playlist, you can find it, which is so great. So welcome, Christina. Thanks for coming on. Moms don't have time to read books. Thank you. Thanks for having me. We've been chatting for like half an hour, and I feel like I could talk to Christina all day. So we're going to structure this now for the podcast. Yes, we have to actually turn the microphone on at some point. So I've just read

your bio. You do a million things, two big jobs, boombox gifts, company branding, two kids. How do

you manage your time and when do you accomplish everything?

And I know it's not all at once and things happen, but I need some secrets.

Okay.
