I always learn so much from CeCe. 🤯Last night she said in her class on writing interiority, make sure in every scene your POV character has a reaction that surprises the reader. "Your reader should be saying, 'I should've seen that coming.'" Love to #learnwithcece @ceciliaclyra
This week on @2livespodcast we talked with Wenche Frederiksen who experienced life threatening burnout in an attempt to do and be all the things as a woman.
A quote that inspired Katie Joy Duke through not one but two major traumas in her life. Listen to the latest 2 Lives episode to hear how she has become the phoenix.

Thrilled to hear 2 Lives on @NPRWeekend this morning! @ayesharascoe After hating her body most of her life @adibanelson gave birth to a daughter with severe disabilities. It changed her attitude and helped her to embrace herself.
"Monsters live in the dark. And when you bring those monsters into the light, like the scariness is taken away. And that shame is taken away." #newepisode @rashapecoraro

Tuesday on 2 Lives
"It really wasn't until I came out to Seattle (in my 30s) and had really excellent therapy and began writing about it, I was like, 'oh holy crap! I was not just having a difficult time (for a dark period in my 20s), I was literally homeless.'"
