This week, I’m joined by Christina Perri — singer-songwriter, mom, and now children’s book author — for a truly special conversation.
We talk about how becoming a mother completely reshaped her life and career, the real work she’s done on her mental health, and what it’s been like turning her song “A Thousand Years” into a children’s book. Christina shares openly about the highs and lows of motherhood, the importance of therapy, and how she’s learned to stay grounded and present in the chaos of raising young kids.
She also shares her journey through loss and healing, how she’s teaching her daughters about emotions, and why putting her mental health first has made her a better mom, partner, and person.
This conversation is raw, emotional, and so full of heart — I hope it leaves you feeling seen, supported, and reminded that you’re not alone in whatever season you’re in.
