“Being forced to talk to other people allowed me to find this other part of myself that I didn't know existed.” – Kirsten Rudberg

Today’s featured bookcaster is a panentheist, screenwriter, producer, and believer in humanity, Kirsten Rudberg. Kirsten and I had a fun on a bun chat about her books, what it was like living overseas during her formative years, what inspired her to do a dark, subversive rewrite of the Peter Rabbit series, and tons more!!

Key Things You’ll Learn:

How getting banned from her school library helped her become more outgoing

What is panentheism and how it shapes her thinking

What keeps her creativity muscles strong

Her top 3 lessons learned from starting, running, and growing her podcast
