Episode notes
In this week's episode of Drafting Motherhood, I’m sharing the very true and slightly chaotic story of how I accidentally became a children’s author. I share how one late-night idea sent in the group chat somehow turned into a manuscript archive on Google Docs, countless hours at YouTube University building a website, and creating an independent publishing house while learning the ins and outs of self-publishing. And the best part? I get to do it all with my best friend (Spoiler alert: she's now my rockstar illustrator!) This episode is a behind-the-scenes look at our creative process. The realities of creating with toddlers running around, figuring out the heart of my "why", and creating stories centered around social emotional learning (SEL).
So buckle up! We’re talking motherhood, creativity, self-image, friendship, ADHD-fueled ambition, children’s books, and what it’s like learning everything as you go. If you’ve been hesitating to try something new but you're nervous because you don't know everything yet, this one’s for you.
Whether you’re a parent, aspiring author, or a fellow neurodivergent figuring life out one hyperfixation at a time, welcome to the club, sis. Let’s keep talking. 🫶🏼
