MEGAN WHITMER, Author (10-12-22)

MEGAN WHITMER, a bestselling author, a mother of five, a respiratory therapist, and a music writer from the state of Washington, will join us to discuss all of the above, including her newest release, "Mom Life Versus the Everyday Apocalypse." FROM HER BIO: "I am a Mom. Hard stop... well, soft stop lol.  I just published a non-fiction mom humor book called "Mom Life Versus the Everyday Apocalypse." It's been a #1 Bestseller in 5 categories on Amazon and a #1 New Release in 4 categories on Amazon.  I work fulltime even when I'd rather be home. And sometimes when I'm home I'd rather be working. Life is like that. You don't get to choose your circumstances, but you can choose how you deal with them. I use humor to deal with life. I also use my faith and my belief that everything happens for a reason. My family has moved 19 times in 20 years. I'm really good at moving, but I also know the crushing weight of change and of helping kids feel loved when everything seems to be falling apart.  This last summer I sang the Canadian National Anthem at a local baseball game. Am I a great singer? No. I am mediocre at best. What I would call a "super large choir voice." But I did it and I didn't faint or throw-up so I consider that a major win. I love to try new and fun things and I'm definitely pro doing hard things.  ​My family and I have moved 19 times in 20 years and are currently living fulltime in our RV with 4 of our kids and our dog and English Shepherd. My oldest son just joined the marines. Currently we are blowing in the wind without a job for my husband and wondering where we will be next. I am used to hard life decisions and feeling like the new person. I make friends easily and can talk about how to find community when you are lonely and isolated by our current culture." meganwhitmerbooks.com
