From Pathology to Pages: My Inspiring Author Adventure
Recently, I had the wonderful opportunity to be a guest on Rebecca Paciorek's Authors' Allies Podcast, and I wanted to share a bit about my author experience.
As many of you know, my journey has been quite diverse, spanning medical pathology, mental health, and now, the exciting world of authorship.
In this episode about author life
I shared my story of transitioning from a fulfilling career in clinical social work to pursuing my passion for writing children's books. It's been an incredible adventure, and I'm so grateful for the chance to connect with readers of all ages. (Don't miss everyone's favorite story- how I met Georgie.)
We talked about my upcoming STEM book, where I'm tackling important topics like climate change, and how I believe storytelling can be a powerful tool for understanding and change.
I also discussed the intricacies of self-publishing and the importance of following your dreams, no matter where you are in life.
Whether you're an aspiring author or simply a book lover, I hope my story inspires you to pursue your passions.
I truly enjoyed my conversation with Rebecca, and I invite you to listen in and join me on this journey. Grab your favorite brew and delve into my story!
