From Divorce to Book Deals: Asha Elias on Reinvention, Writing, and Motherhood
Description
Writer, mother, and reluctant socialite Asha Elias joins Cari to talk about reinvention, resilience, and the real story behind her rapid rise as a novelist. From launching Pink Glass Houses to celebrating the release of The Namaste Club, Asha opens up about writing, grief, raising two kids post-divorce, and how dating a younger man has taught her about love and softness in relationships.
Asha has contributed to Cosmopolitan magazine and is a regular columnist for Miami New Times. She lives in Miami Beach.
This conversation is honest, inspiring, hilarious, and packed with reminders that you can start over at any time — and do it loudly.
This episode explores:
Writing books faster than people have babies
-
Reclaiming your voice after family childhood dysfunction
-
Dating younger and being loved how you’ve always wanted
-
Grieving a complicated relationship with her late mother
-
Letting go of shame and the power of trying again
If you’re standing at the edge of reinvention, this one’s your permission slip to leap.
