Trusting What Comes Next: A Conversation with Iz Harris
Welcome to Zimmerman Podcast Episode 83!
Today I’m sitting down with Iz Harris, who is basically my most favorite person on the internet. Iz is a filmmaker, writer, and mom who documents her life as she travels and eats her way through the world with (and sometimes without!) her family.
I found Iz and her husband Johnny through their youtube channel years ago, and I’m just so grateful that I get to talk to her and share our conversation with you guys!

Her journey from a young, married Mormon mom to becoming one of DC’s most highly sought-after wedding videographers
Her ever-changing creative process
How to travel with young kids
How to know it’s time to take the next step in your creative career

My favorite product pairings for this episode...
Beekeeper’s Naturals
In October 2019, I decided to write the entire first draft of my book in like... five days. It was intense. I knew I needed to be laser focused for those four days, so you better believe I loaded up on my Beekeeper’s Naturals goodies every day that week!
I took the B. Powered superfood honey to improve my focus and keep me alert. I also took a BLIXR vial each morning to clear out that brain fog.
Truthfully, two years ago I never could have written this book in four days. I didn’t have the mental clarity or the energy to do it. But my Beekeeper’s honey keeps me fueled and fog-free, and I can definitely notice a difference on the days I forget to take it.

Sleeping with a Stranger
Sleeping with a Stranger is officially available everywhere books are sold in hardcover, paperback, ebook, and audiobook. Since the book’s launch, I’ve been amazed by how it has been received. From being named a best seller by USA Today, the Wall Street Journal, Amazon and Barnes & Noble to incredibly personal and touching reviews from my amazing readers, it’s been such a wild journey!
Here’s one of my favorite reviews…
“I love the honesty of this book. It is real and raw and doesn't hold back; and that is why it is so mesmerizing. I could relate on so many levels and I know it must've been so hard to write about many of these very personal and taboo topics. I couldn't put the book down, it was such an easy and enlightening read. I highly recommend this to anyone who is soul searching or just looking for some perspective. Truth is better than fiction!”
