Welcome to The Author's Mind where stories speak louder than silence. I'm your host, Jennifer Laker, a lover of words and a believer in their power to heal, teach and transform. Here, we read beyond the pages exploring social issues like mental health, suicide and gender-based violence through the voices of African writers and dreamers. This podcast is more than talk; it's a movement to give recognition, hope and purpose to every storyteller across Africa. Because every voice matters and every story deserves to be heard.
