Most moms reading this will know Christine Platt as the author behind the beloved Ana and Andrews series of children’s books. But writing was a second, or even third, act for Christine. You may also know her as the afrominimalist, or the Managing Director of the Antiracist Research & Policy Center at American University. And that’s after a career in corporate law, while raising her young daughter. How on earth? Christine shares how she never lost sight of her passion - even if at times she had to put her dreams on hold - and how she fights to protect time, even if only a few minutes a day, to nourish those passions and never lose herself in the process of raising her child.
