How do the stories we tell ourselves shape our lives


Bestselling children's book author, Marianne Richmond, shares her deeply personal journey from writing for kids to publishing her upcoming memoir, If You Were My Daughter: Healing an Unmothered Heart.


In this conversation, we explore resilience, the impact of emotionally unavailable parenting, and the power of storytelling as a tool for healing.


Top 3 Takeaways:
1️⃣ Healing Through Creativity: Marianne’s writing journey began as a way to cope during recovery, proving that creativity can be a powerful tool for healing.
2️⃣ The Stories We Inherit: Our upbringing shapes our self-perception, but we have the power to reauthor our narratives.
3️⃣ Hope is a Choice: Even in the face of trauma and generational pain, choosing hope and resilience can transform your life.
