Couch Conversations at the Studio with Erica Henderson

Erica shares how both of her books were born during challenging seasons in her own life. While working through emotions she had buried, she came to a powerful realization: if processing our feelings is hard as adults, how much harder is it for a child who doesn't yet have the words for what they feel? Thinking of her godchildren sparked the first book - Acire's Journey to Forgiveness Mountain. A later season of learning to regulate, respond, and sit with big feelings brought the second - Campbell’s Journey through Honesty Cave. We also talk about her creative process, the beta readers and believers who cheered her on, and a tip every creator needs to hear: you don't have to share your work with everyone. Too many opinions can pull you away from what you were led to put into the world. Erica is a true multi-passionate creative, and there is so much more to explore, from authorship to publishing and beyond.
