Summary

Zibby speaks to New York Times bestselling author and repeat MDHTTRB guest Katherine May about Enchantment: Awakening Wonder in an Anxious Age, a lyrical, profound, and warm guide to feeling less burnt out and disconnected and more in tune with our beautiful surroundings. Katherine describes how she came to be an author–it involves years of denying her calling and even once, as a teenager, throwing out all of her poems. She also talks about her own experience of being overwhelmed and stuck in a reading block and then shares some of the magical little memories and moments that brought her back to herself.
