My favorite time of the year has arrived — when everyone shares what their favorite books of the year are! I can’t even tell you how much I look forward to this every year, so I decided to take part!
Also in this episode, I share about what it was really like to write my new book because some of y’all have been asking about the process. So I talk a bit about what I learned, how I navigated the bazillion times my inner critic told me to throw in the towel, and more. Enjoy this books, books, books episode!
