In this episode, Jeremy gets to chat with all around awesome human and book influencer Cree Myles about her journey into book advocacy. They explore how literature, hip-hop, and good mentors in higher education shaped Cree’s worldview. They talk about how great Ursala K Le Guin is, how content creation under capitalism feels gross sometimes, and how hard it can be to find time to read as a parent. The conversation also covers the importance of building values-aligned communities, how racism looks in the suburbs, and of course some really good recommendations for books.

Go listen to Cree on her podcast These Books are for Everybody! Like and subscribe, obviously. Also follow Cree on Instagram where she is hilarious and also does her hip-hop verse annotations. Be cool and read good books!

As always, Jeremy has all his practice info at Wellness with Jer, and you can find him on Instagram and YouTube. To show your love for the show you can pick up some merch! We appreciate support from likes, follows, and shares as well! None of my online work would be possible without my media maven Kenny, so check out their work as well at kenlingdesign.com
