Episode 100 The Women Who Hold Everything Together with New York Times Bestselling Author Annabel Monaghan
Annabel Monaghan didn’t set out to become a bestselling novelist—at least not on a straight path. She worked in finance, raised three kids, said yes to things she didn’t want to do, and put writing on hold longer than she’d like to admit.
Now, she writes the kind of love stories readers can’t stop talking about—funny, deeply relatable, and full of women who are holding everything together… until something shifts.
In this episode, we talk about the pressure to do it all, the power of saying no, and why “having it all” might actually be about timing, not balance.
Plus, a first look at her new novel DOLLY ALL THE TIME—a fake dating romance with real emotional stakes.
