This was the inspiration behind her first book Dear Kennedy. Her second book Miraculous Every Day was written during the pandemic and is a challenge of 21 days to make your journey ahead miraculous every day no matter the storms you face. Hear about the process of writing and self-publishing a book, the unexpected challenges overcome in the process, and other people’s responses to them.
