What happens when a poem you write goes viral? Our guest this week knows!
Kristine and Colleen speak to Jennae Cecelia who you may know as the author of the poem “I met my younger self for coffee” to discuss her squiggly path.

Jennae shares how her passion for writing blossomed from her childhood and the key moment when a viral poem on TikTok brought her significant attention. Jennae has self-published 13 books – the most popular being, The Sun Will Rise and So Will We and Healing for No One But Me which have sold more than 75,000 copies combined! Her current interests as an author is to tell stories around life experiences that in the moment seem insignificant but become nostalgic as time goes on.

She is now signed with Andrews McMeel, a partner of Simon & Schuster to publish her first traditionally published book, Deep In My Feels, available anywhere books are sold.

Jennae has expanded into helping brands form an intimate connection with their audience. She has formed creative partnerships with Pinterest, M Fairview Health, Papier, American Eagle, and Canva - to name a few.

She lives a life of simplicity centered around art! Her latest interests are pottery and thrifting – anything vintage, people-watching, and hosting themed dinner parties!
