A Podcast Interview with Christine Wolf

“I have never considered it ‘brave’ to write the truth.”

Recently, I sat down with Jill Schacter, Community Engagement Coordinator at the Evanston Public Library, to discuss my journey as a writer:

The interview’s featured on The Check Out, a fantastic series of podcasts about members of my community.

During our conversation, we touch on a wide range of topics, including:

• Why authentic connections mean so much to me
• Emotional bravery and writing about the tough stuff
• Owning and running a business in the midst of a global pandemic
• My path from advertising exec to teacher to writer & performer
• How I landed a Google+ interview with Barack Obama
• The role the Evanston Public Library plays in my writing life
• The way writing helps me reframe negative experiences
• How writing helps me (and how others respond ) when I share stories about my mental health
