Amelia Zachry, author of Enough: A Memoir of Mistakes, Mania, and Motherhood, didn't think anyone would want to read about her trauma. But being vulnerable about her experiences "invited people to be vulnerable" in return.

On this episode, Amelia discusses several writing prompts that will help you tap into your emotions and "share your truth."
