Kerry Washington Shares the Story Behind her New Book, 'Thicker than Water'

Actress, producer, activist, and author Kerry Washington joins Jim this week on Celebrations Chatter to share the journey that led to her writing her new memoir, "Thicker Than Water," where she shares her parternity story.  Kerry and Jim discuss the power of rituals in giving us comfort and meaning, and share a few of their favorites (including one tradition that helped Kerry's family heal). Join us for a touching discussion on the true nature of family, the power of community, and how telling our stories empowers us to approach life on our own terms.   New podcast episodes released weekly on Thursday.
