“Don’t be afraid to be yourself.” – Carlos Baker

Today’s featured author is a songwriter, musician, husband, father of 4, ex-pat, and survivor of childhood cancer and adult depression, Carlos Baker. Carlos and I had a fun on a bun chat about his first book, “Songs For Ivy”, raising a family overseas in Germany, the importance of humor, and tons more!!

 

Key Things You’ll Learn:

What inspired Carlos to be a musician

Why being an adult doesn’t mean letting go of the creative acts that bring you joy

What helped Carlos during his journey through childhood cancer and adult depression

How laughter can be a powerful tool for healing and resilience
