In this first interview post hiatus, I’m thrilled to bring you this heartwarming, nourishing conversation with the smart and sparkly Karen Chan. Karen is a children's book author, entrepreneur and attorney. She is the founder of Gloo Books, an independent publishing company making children's books for a more inclusive, just and compassionate future. After she became a parent, she noticed how few children's books had Asian characters in them. This inspired her to write her first children's book What's That?, which celebrates Asian American identity through food. This eventually turned into starting her own publishing company, Gloo Books, with the mission to create social change through children's literature. When she's not working on Gloo Books or practicing law, Karen is often cooking, wrangling her two young boys and enjoying life in the mostly sunny, Los Angeles.
We jammed about:
This conversation was grounding, invigorating and one that I personally needed to listen and get goosebumps over it again as I talk through this season of seeking inspiration and channeling creative energy in my life.
