October is World Mental Health month and I’m talking with Sagit Schwartz on the power books have to shine a light on mental health.

She’s here to talk about her debut novel: Since She’s Been Gone. 

Sagit Schwartz is a writer, producer, and licensed psychotherapist. Her work has been featured in Medium, Slate, The Atlantic, Reddit NoSleep, and Lifetime Television. She resides with her husband, daughter, and rescue dog in a Southern California beach town….and her novel is incredible for so many reasons. 

It’s the first book I’ve read (if not ever!) with a main character grappling with an eating disorder in the midst of a gripping storyline that kept me turning the pages compulsively. 

You’ll find the show notes for the episode with links to all of the books and resources mentioned right here.
