In this week's episode I chat with Jackie Amsden, this girl is funnnnny, and she has a pretty fantastic story. As a teenage model who got to work and travel in Asia, she was able to turn her adventures into a novel. From what I learned through Jackie's story, the most important thing to remember is, outside validation can only go so far. Until you can truly fulfill what is lacking inwards, it is only then when one can build their voice authentically, and have a good time doing so!

Jackie Amsden is a mum, indie YA author and podcast host living in Port Moody, BC. These Mums Write is about helping mums achieve their writing goals and dreams.

My Favourite Jackie quotes:

"I’m still waking up..I’m just starting to do that, before you thought there was nothing, then you start to see things that were always there, but you couldn’t see them before and that’s the really exciting thing thats happening now."

(On social media)  "It's just about you showing up and sharing who you are and being authentically curious about other people and it starts to build that way."

"You do the writing in your head that’s part of the process, so even if you don’t have time, but you’re still thinking about the ideas, they’re simmering, that’s writing too."

Thank you for listening!
