Jarrod Shusterman & Sofia Lapuente || YA Authors, Character Development, Body Dysmorphia

Hello friends! Today I have an episode that felt like a holiday to record. Truly. I had the honor of chatting with Sofia Lapuente and Jarrod Shusterman, NYT best selling YA romance/thriller authors. We got to talk about their writing process when it comes to character development, and how being connected to themselves plays a role in that. Sofia is from Spain and had so much to share regarding the differences in pressure on the bodies in Spain versus America. Jarrod talked about his experience growing up as a wrestler, and the pressures put on young bodies in that culture. 

I had so much fun interviewing them, and can't wait for you all to listen. Enjoy :)
