Guest host Alisha Fernandez Miranda welcomes TikTok phenomenon Whitney Hanson to discuss HARMONY, an exquisite poetry collection that chronicles the loss of a loved one and the progression of grief and healing through the lens of music. Whitney describes her transition from writing music to poetry and then shares how losing her best friend at sixteen inspired this collection. She also talks about her social media journey, her goal of making poetry accessible to younger readers, her emotional but rewarding book tour, and her future dreams, including writing a children’s book and leading a retreat in Bali!
