Once Upon an Upset is a podcast of stories and conversations to help make sense of difficult times, for kids and parents.
New episodes every Wednesday!
(All episodes written, performed and produced by Jessica Laurel Kane, and all music made by Jerome Rossen at Freshmade Music.)
I also started another podcast for adults only—Once Upon an Upset-The Interviews—where I interview people about topics such as mental health and parenting.
And if you’re interested in listening to my memoir-based podcast for adults about my mother, who passed unexpectedly in 2016, it’s called A Woman Called Mother.

Taking A Break To Create Season Two
After 69 episodes, I’ll be taking a three-month break from hosting Once Upon an Upset to figure out what Season Two will be, and also to heal my throat from a minor problem that developed. I’ll also be working on my next book, an illustrated compilation of many of the episodes from this past year. If you’re interested in finding out more about that, you can sign up for the email list at OnceUponAnUpset.com or follow my Facebook page, Once Upon An Upset. It’s been such a rewarding experiencing creating this podcast and i hope you and your family have enjoyed it. I look forward to connecting again soon! In the meantime, please be well.

When my son was four, he kept telling me he had an imaginary friend named Mahabba Mahabba Mahabba Mahabba Mahabba Mahabba and when I looked it up, I found out it means love. This story was inspired by some things my son told me about his imaginary friend.
