Just for fun, this week on the podcast to celebrate the launch of Love-Centered Parenting, we turn the tables and Jesse hosts the show and interviews me about why I wrote another book when I never thought I would, a real behind-the-scenes look at how I wrote this book, what the editorial process is like for writing a book, plus much more!
He asks me some of his own questions + questions you all submitted, including:
Did I plan to write another book? (Spoiler alert: the answer is no!) How was the writing process of this book compared to my other books? What was the most difficult part of writing Love-Centered Parenting? What are the best and worst aspects of writing a book? How do you find inspiration for what to write about?
