My guest today is Caroline Chambers, queen of a culinary media empire with her Substack What To Cook When You Don't Feel Like Cooking as the crown jewel with nearly 200k subscribers, as well as a popular podcast “So Into That” and an active social media presence (her Instagram rivals her Substack, with well over 200k followers, so I stopped counting, haha.) Today we talk about: * building an author platform, * balancing motherhood and a creative career, * infusing your personal voice into non-fiction, * the process of writing (and photographing) a cookbook, and more! I hope you enjoy the show! And don't forget about our $1,000 and $2,500 Scholarships for Aspiring Writers. Applications now open! More information here. 🟨 Full video version available free at CreativeInspiredHappy.com, along with $1,000 & $2,500 Scholarships for Aspiring Writers, a Book Club for Writers & Curious Readers, behind-the-scenes insights into a bestselling authors' life, mini-creativity challenges, and more.
