Jodie Sweetin Gets ‘Really Vulnerable’ Revisiting Her Life Story

Actress Jodie Sweetin is all about using her voice for good. In her latest project, the Hallmark star will lend her voice to her own life story.

Sweetin will narrate the new audiobook version of “unSweetined,” her 2009 memoir, People reported on June 17, 2025. The book details how, after skyrocketing to fame as a child star, playing Stephanie Tanner on “Full House” in the late 80s and early 90s, Sweetin spiraled into addiction but later rebuilt her life in recovery.

“I’m proud knowing that this audiobook is my voice, my emotions and my truth all wrapped together,” she told People in a statement. “I was really vulnerable in the process of recording and I hope listeners feel that connection with every word.”

Jodie Sweetin’s Audiobook Will Include New Introduction She Wrote

The audiobook version of “unSweetined” will be released on August 19 via Simon & Schuster Audio.

“I loved recording the audiobook,” she told People, adding, “It was such a personal experience to revisit these stories in my own voice all these years later.”

Sweetin wrote a new introduction for the audiobook, outlining the “significant growth and changes” she’s gone through since the original book was first released.

Her personal life has greatly changed since 2009. The “Jane Mysteries” star now has two daughters — Beatrix, 14, and Zoie, 17 — and she married her fourth husband, social worker Mescal Wasilewski, in July 2022.

Jodie Sweetin’s Work Has Shifted Since Her 2009 Book Release

Although Sweetin is still an entertainer, her professional life has changed quite a bit since her memoir was released, too. For starters, she didn’t begin appearing in Hallmark movies until eight years later, in 2017, with “Finding Santa.”

She also starred on Netflix’s “Full House” reboot, “Fuller House,” with most of the original cast from 2016 to 2020. She and the cast were gutted by unexpected death of Bob Saget, the show’s patriarch, in 2022.

After his death, Sweetin decided to finally try stand-up comedy — something Saget was a pro in and always though she’d be good at.

“Bob always believed in me,” she told Today.com in 2023. “He’d always say, ‘You’re so funny. Your timing’s so great.’ And after he passed … a couple opportunities came up and I started doing it. People were like, ‘Bob would be so proud of you. He would be so proud of you.'”

Sweetin continues to appear at comedy shows around Los Angeles, while also hosting her “How Rude, Tanneritos!” podcast with former castmate Andrea Barber and filming her TV movies. Her next project is a departure from her Hallmark rom-coms and cozy mysteries, though, as she stars in a “pretty intense” Lifetime drama about the radicalization of young men on June 21.
