Meg Kissinger - WHILE YOU WERE OUT


Listen Later

In this interview, I chat with Meg Kissinger about While You Were Out, why she decided to write this book, how the health care system often fails those with mental illness, what surprised her the most when writing this memoir, living with parents who have mental illnesses, her title and its significance, and much more.

Meg's recommended reads are:

  1. Lost and Found by Kathryn Schulz
  2. Never Simple by Liz Scheier
  3. The Scar by Mary Cregan
