Get to know Nora McInerny Purmort, author of "It's Okay to Laugh (Crying is Cool Too), a memoir written after Nora's husband, Aaron, died from brain cancer. Nora, Erin, & Rita talk about Nora's experiences writing the book, navigating social media – from hate follows to finding support through people you'd have never found otherwise, and Nora's perspective on "things" – the reminders and memories she has of Aaron, why they matter, and, also, why they don't.
