All About Brains: Lake Bell on Neurodiversity, Motherhood & Nova’s Journey

This week on The Mother Daze, we’re sitting down with the brilliant Lake Bell- actor, author, director, screenwriter, and mama; to dive into her powerful new children’s book All About Brains!, inspired by her daughter Nova’s epilepsy journey. This heart-led convo opens up the world of neurodiversity for kids, celebrating the many magical ways our brains work. Lake shares what it’s been like navigating Nova’s diagnosis, co-parenting with Nova’s dad, and becoming the ultimate information gatherer to both advocate for and empower her daughter. We talk emotional hurdles, the drive behind writing this book, and how community and connection have helped her through. It’s real, raw, and full of heart (just like Lake herself!)
