Today, Kelly Wiesenhan joins us for Episode 11 of Conversations with Cam. Kelly Wiesehan has been journaling for over ten years, chronicling the chaos of growing up. The infamous year of 2020 pushed her to finally sit down and compile her richest excerpts from diaries that span ages twelve to twenty-two. Small Legs, Big Teeth: A Prequel of Something Yet to Come is Kelly’s honest, humorous, and effervescent ode to the lessons she’s learned so far and a toast to what’s to come. Kelly graduated from Washington University in St. Louis in 2021 with a degree in Communication Design and Marketing. She recently started her first job in STL and is excited for this next chapter.
In episode 11, we cover Kelly's journey from writing to publishing her first book, and how she needed to give herself internal validation during this process instead of seeking it elsewhere. We also cover relationships, breakups, and dating post-breakup. Kelly, thank you so much for being a guest!!!

We talk about her journey with selective mutism, and how she was able to find her voice through therapy and support from those closest to her. We also talk about her move to Hawaii, and what Amber does to check in with her mental health now. Amber, thank you so much for being on the podcast and for your vulnerability!!
