Lisa will shed light on her work in early intervention and how it shaped her writing, the mission behind her Let’s Talk! series and why representation matters. Her journey as a professor, therapist, and multi-award-winning author and how she's balancing creativity with academia and therapy and finally her hopes for inspiring acceptance, inclusion, and understanding in young readers and their families.
