In this episode, I talk with the luminous Harper A. Bailey, whose debut memoir It Was Her poured straight into my heart. We talk about the dream that sparked her writing, the spiritual co-creation behind her pen name, and the moment she realized her story wasn’t just hers, it was meant to unlock stories in others. Harper shares how grief became both her wilderness and her teacher, and how processing isn’t about doing, but about learning to be with ourselves again. This conversation is all about reclaiming the wholeness we’ve always carried but sometimes forget. If you’ve ever felt stuck between the pain of the past and the hope of what could be, this episode is a reminder that you can return home to yourself at any time.
What You’ll Learn:
- How grief can become a doorway back to yourself, not a destination you’re meant to stay in
- Why Harper chose a pen name and how it unlocked a deeper spiritual and creative voice
- The difference between doing the work and actually processing your emotions
- What it looks like to forgive the younger version of yourself and reclaim your wholeness
