EP 231: Two Voices, One Story: A Daughter’s Journey to Help Her Mom Publish with Hollis McCarthy

Honoring Her Mother’s Dream

When actor and audiobook narrator Hollis McCarthy helped her mom, Dee Maltby, publish a fantasy novel that had been sitting in a drawer for over 30 years, she never imagined it would lead to an eight-book series—or a deeply meaningful creative journey.

In this special Mother's Day episode, Hollis shares how she became her mother’s editor, co-writer, and narrator, helping bring a long-held dream to life. It’s a powerful story about legacy, second acts, and the magic that can unfold when we say yes to what’s been waiting inside us all along.
