Talking to Woman’s Day, 34-year-old mum-of-four Teresa Palmer – who has penned her first book, Zen Mamas, with actress and best friend Sarah Wright Olsen – explains why it was important for her to write a book that she wished she had when she was pregnant.

Why did you feel compelled to write about pregnancy?

When I was first pregnant I felt like I had to read six different books to get everything that I needed. It was hard to find a book that showed all the sides of the pregnancy journey. So for Sarah and I, it was integral that we open up ourselves in a vulnerable way and share lots of intimate details on our struggles and share our journeys with miscarriages, too.
