72. How to Begin III: Pursuing ‘You 2.0’ with Jenny Blake, author of ‘Free Time’

Writing a book can be lonely, scary, and confusing, but one of the things that has been brilliant about writing How To Begin is my friend, Jenny Blake. She’s been a friend of mine for many years now, and I feel like our friendship has only deepened within the last year. Since we think similarly, we’ve been encouraging each other to write a book, and when I thought of the small number of people I’d love to preview my new book, Jenny was an unmissable top-of-the-list person; she’s been with me all the way.
