I sat down with Holly Seaver, a children’s author whose story is just as powerful as the ones she writes. She opened up about doing foster care for eight years and how those experiences shaped not only who she is today, but the stories she feels called to tell. And yeah… it gets real. We talk about how she turns heavy, emotional topics, like foster care, adoption, and feeling like you don’t belong into stories kids can actually understand and connect with. Not in a preachy way, but in a “hey, you’re seen and you’re not alone” kind of way. Her whole approach to storytelling is rooted in empathy and inclusion, and honestly, you can feel that in everything she creates. We also get into her writing process, how she builds relatable characters for kids navigating tough situations, and why books can be such a powerful tool for starting conversations that a lot of people avoid. Whether you’re a parent, educator, or just someone who loves meaningful stories, this episode gives you a lot to think about. If you’ve ever wondered how stories can help kids process big emotions or how lived experiences can turn into something that helps others this one’s for you. And yes, by the end, you’ll probably want to check out her books too.
