Part of what makes life so exciting are the twists and turns. Things never seem to work out exactly how we plan. There are so many unforeseen challenges and rewards when we allow ourselves to be ourselves without judgement and discover life in the process. My conversation with Emily Giffin was illuminating. From the time Emily was in 1st grade, growing up in Chicago, she knew she wanted to be an author. However, that's not how her professional career started. Her journey includes practical decisions, crushing defeat, and never letting go of her life long dream. In 2001, Emily retired from the legal profession and moved to London to pursue her dreams where she wrote the first of her nine #1 New York Times bestsellers, Something Borrowed. Her other novels include: Something Blue, Baby Proof, Love the One You’re With, Heart of the Matter, Where We Belong, The One & Only, First Comes Love, and All We Ever Wanted. Join me on this episode as Emily shares about transitioning from the miserable life of corporate law to being one of the biggest selling women's fiction authors writing today and how she became who she was MADE To Be.
