Karen talks about her memoir, Growth: A mother, her son and the brain tumour they survived. Karen felt compelled to share her story of how she overcame ingrained people pleasing tendencies to convince doctors that her son needed help. She discusses medical gaslighting and how this memoir has enabled her to come to terms with what happened and recognise her own journey.
We also chat about book marketing, napping, and the joys of small press publishing.
