OnZoom. Part of our membership in Kae Wagner’s Bold Author Network. Kae has beenworking with self-published authors weekly, transforming, teaching, elevating,and inspiring. I was inspired by Natalie as well. Her authorship of achildren's book that I read to my grandchildren at Halloween. ‘The BumpyPumpkin.’ First time ever, “Grandpa, read it again.” Two weeks ago, we chattedon Zoom. Her depth, brilliance, and day job, versatility, and best-selling,award-winning children’s book author. And I didn’t expect it; Natalie has 20years of experience in health care. I love cardiologists. Keeps me ticking.She’s an exec at a prominent cardiac center. Works to broadly improve cardiaccare. She ran the operating room, too. And she created a character inspired byher real-life farm companion, ’Goat on the Go’ Series. Natalie is aboutfriendship, resilience, and emotional growth in children. It’s in her words andspirit. Her father encouraged her to become a nurse. Her mother is a nurse. Andwith that energy, she became. But she always wanted to write a children’s book.She exudes that caring. As I wound down, I asked her who she’d like to spend aday with. “Meryl Streep” I told her I did that already and was in a movie withMeryl. Our bonds sealed. To be continued.” Calvi🎙️ 775+ Interviews &Videos📺 9,500+ Subscribers —and growing👉 Please Subscribe:https://www.youtube.com/c/ConversationswithCalvinWetheSpecIEsGLOBAL Reach. Earth Life.
