Welcome back to the IGNITE Your Dream Podcast!  This week's episode is with brilliant poet + kindred soul, Kassi Wilson. Kassi Wilson is a poet, indie author, and native of Minnesota. Kassi spent her childhood at the lakes immersed in water and sunshine. She’s cultivated a love for the natural world that inspired her debut poetry book Growing Gills. Her newest poetry book—Fire and Flourishing is a captivating collection of poems that captures the aftermath of a cross-country move during wildfire season. Poems delve into themes of change, grief, hard lessons, growth, motherhood, and love’s resilience. The through line is a deep desire to rise above the status quo and flourish with a reignited passion for life. Kassi’s writing resonates with women, wives, and moms offering solace and inspiration.  In this conversation Kassi shares her journey to poetry and how, in a sense, she has always lived inside of it, even before the words ever landed onto paper.  I can't wait for you to listen!  Links Mentioned:  Follow Kassi over on Instagram: @kassiwilsonpoet Learn more about her work and purchase her books at her website: kassiwilson.com Book your Breakthrough Call today Tag me in your big shifts + takeaways: @amberlilyestrom Did you hear something you loved here today?!
