Sarah Walton and Kristen Wetherell: The Blessing and Burden of Collaboration

Ever feel like giving up creative control means giving up your voice? In this Real-Time, Real-Talk episode, I sit down with co-authors Kristen Wetherell and Sarah Walton—two writers in the thick of crafting their second book together. We unpack the tension every writer faces when someone else enters the creative process: the edits, the pushback, the shared vision. Kristen and Sarah show what it looks like to co-write with grace, humility, and deep friendship. Even if you never co-author a book, this conversation will help you navigate the hard but holy work of collaboration. Hi!
