Cracks In Time The Podcast

If you’d rather watch this instead of read it, click here: Watch Here A few months ago, someone asked me a question that completely caught me off guard. “So, you’re an author?” And for some reason, I froze. Not because I didn’t know how to answer. Because I wasn’t sure the answer was true. For years, I assumed that if you were writing a book with the intention of publishing it, then you were autom...

Prefer the video version? Click here to watch 🎥 As you can see… we are in a totally different location today. We are in my car. {if you listening or reading just imagine me in a car 🤣} Because I am a busy mom. I’m at co-op for my daughter. My son isn’t big enough yet, so… car it is. This is where we’re working today. And today we’re talking all things my book. First of all—side note—this is like...

Because for the first time since I started this journey, I can finally say: I’m excited about my book. If you would much rather watch this click here. The Truth? It Wasn’t Always Like This For almost four years… This book has been t...

Let’s talk about what it really means to be a writer. Not the polished, aesthetic version. Not the “I’ve had a dream since I was five and have a creative writing degree” version. I mean the real one. The everyday, average, chaotic version. The stay-at-home, homeschool, juggling-life-and-ideas kind of writer. Because here’s the truth: Anyone can write a book. And I don’t mean that lightly. If you w...

Welcome back to another week. This is one of those posts I’ve debated writing. Because once it’s out there… I can’t take it back. And if I’m being honest, part of me feels like I’m not qualified to say any of this. Which is a weird place to be—feeling something deeply, but questioning whether you’re allowed to speak on it. But here’s the truth: My faith has changed my author career. Not in a bad w...

🎥 Prefer to watch? The full video version is here: Watch Here I am a writer. But homeschool comes first. And that feels heavy to say out loud. Because I want to be taken seriously as an author. I want to be seen as disciplined. Focused. Committed. Professional. But the reality of my life — the actual, honest-to-God reality — is that in this season, homeschool comes first. And that changes everyth...

🎥 Prefer to watch? The full video version is here: Watch Here We are barely into 2026, and I have already failed my writing goals for the year. And instead of spiraling about it — which, historically, would absolutely be my default setting, I had to ask myself a very serious question: What does life realistically look like for me right now? Because sometimes life is just… a lot. Especially for mo...

Learning to Stay When Everything Feels Unfinished In this first episode of Cracks in Time , I’m talking about what it means to create in the cracks of time — the small, stolen moments between homeschooling, motherhood, self-doubt, rewrites, burnout, and trying to build an author career that actually works for me . This episode is raw, minimally edited, and very much a ramble. We talk about choosin...
