This is such a fun episode that I cannot wait for you to hear!  My friend, Jo Dodd, is an amazing author, mom of four boys, with the yummiest, most wonderful way about her that is cozy and fantastic (not to mention her dreamy British accent!)  I loved talking with her about how she became an author of children's book and her latest book which is actually a fantastic, funny and fabulous picture book for Moms "Mama Bear with the F'd Up Hair".  So easy and quick to read, but with such a powerful message for all of us!  She talks about the corporate world to motherhood women, and how women have a lot of plates to juggle.   Jo talks about the importance of finding your passions and stepping away from the role of super mom.  Her newest book launches this week, so check out the link below to purchase your very own copy!

Jo Dodd Bio:

For 25 years, Jo worked in Corporate America in various roles for a Fortune 500 company. On the surface, she appeared confident and put together, but she was completely overwhelmed. She felt like she was failing in every aspect of my life.

In 2020, Jo was furloughed from her job, and it was then that her world began to change. She’d always had a dream of writing children’s books. For the first time, she allowed herself to explore that dream.

Today, Jo is living life by her design, working as a motivational speaker, author & coach, spending more time with her children, and enjoying every moment.
