Hello Rebel Readers,
In this inspiring episode of Rebel Reads Podcast, host Cheryl Briggs sits down with acclaimed author Jacqueline Friedland to explore the story behind the storyteller. From her early days practicing law to finding her true calling in writing, Jackie opens up about the winding road that led her to become one of today’s most fearless voices in contemporary fiction.
Together, they unpack how Friedland channels her passion for justice, empathy, and truth into her novels — and how personal conviction can evolve into creative purpose. With candor and warmth, she shares insights on navigating motherhood, reclaiming creative confidence, and the emotional labor that comes with writing stories that challenge societal norms.
Whether you’re an aspiring author, a lover of bold stories, or simply someone redefining success on your own terms, this conversation is a reminder that it’s never too late to rewrite your life’s narrative — one chapter at a time.
Happy Reading!
