This week we are joined by Isabel Sterling! Isabel Sterling writes stories about queer love and resilience with a witty magical twist. She is the author of several YA and adult novels, including: These Witches Don’t Burn and With All My Haunted Heart. Connect with Isabel at www.IsabelSterling.com Author Isabel Sterling joins the show to talk about her new sapphic ghost story, With All My Haunted Heart, and how a childhood steeped in witchy books, tarot, and Practical Magic grew into the worlds she writes today. She dives into grounding magic in real practices like Reiki and tarot, discovering her queerness through writing, and the mindset tools — honed through her work as a life coach for authors — that got her through rejection, rewrites, and a canceled book contract. It's a conversation about joy, grief, and ambition coexisting, essential listening for anyone drawn to stories with heart, humor, and haunted energy.
