Carrie is a mother of three who somehow finds ways to consistently publish critically acclaimed, young-adult novels.

Her third book Crazy, Messy, Beautiful recently launched on February 7th and tells the story of a hopelessly romantic young artist who finds himself riddled with inner turmoil as he discovers the true nature, and cost, of love.

In this episode, I ask Carrie all about her ability to somehow balance the responsibility of managing an endlessly animated household and yet cultivating the space to accomplish her dreams of being a successful writer.

Our conversation hits on topics such as:How to maintain your inspirationHow to balance a household and a career &How to avoid feeling like a victim of your schedule

Enjoy!
