What a GEM!

I was so thrilled to stumble upon this podcast. I immediately became a huge fan and later was honored to be a Guest Host. Quinn and I bonded instantly! What an incredible, creative and gifted young mother. She blew me away with her wisdom, charm, curiosity, insightfulness and warmth. She does it all and with such grace. Keep shining your bright light Quinn! Thank you for having me and for all that you’re doing to spotlight authors and beautiful books that will instill values and elevate the consciousness of our children and inspire them to be the best version of themselves. Books that birth all that dreams are made of and breed connections and conversations so that parents and educators can actively engage with their children. What a beautiful gift to give! BRAVO!
