Kali - The Aspiring Author

I remember the first time I met Kali - a beautiful, radiant, and welcoming face in the middle of a unfamiliar environment. She was the light in the room I could not ignore, and I assume anyone who meets Kali could say the exact same thing. Kali is a woman of MANY talents. What you think you know about her, I guarantee you isn't even the half of it. One of the things I love about Kali is that she can surprise you, and in this episode, she did just that! I have known for a while Kali is an aspiring author, but I wanted to give her an opportunity to speak it into existence and ultimately, get other people in her corner.

Listen to Ep. 2

In this episode of the Nourisher Podcast, I have a heartfelt conversation with Kali Arredondo about her journey into writing. We discuss the challenges and joys of balancing personal and professional lives, the importance of self-care, and the creative process behind Kali's upcoming book series, which aims to celebrate the connections and stories of powerful women in her life. The episode explores the emotional aspects of creativity, the influence of inspiring women in their lives, and the importance of navigating different seasons of life with grace and positivity. The conversation concludes with a focus on future aspirations and the power of friendship in supporting personal growth.

Inspired by her late father and the strong women around her, Kali turned an emotional outlet into something that fuels her creativity and hones all of her strengths into one project. If only I had the drive to turn my doodles and journaling into something like that! I am so proud of Kali for pursuing a distant dream of hers and sharing that dream with the world. It takes a lot to let people into our lives and give them a glimpse of our hopes and dreams.
