Children naturally ask big, beautiful questions about life—but somewhere along the journey to adulthood, many of us stop. In today’s episode, bestselling author Laura Munson joins us to talk about why that happens and how reclaiming our sense of wonder can transform our lives. Laura’s new book, THE WILD WHY, blends memoir, insight, travel, and creative guidance to help readers reconnect with awe—and with themselves. Through travels from Montana to Morocco, Mexico to Tuscany, and Ireland to an ancient stone circle, Laura reveals the gifts of surrender, kindness, creativity, and curiosity. What We Discuss: Why children ask deep questions—and why adults often silence them Laura’s personal evolution as a writer, seeker, and “wonderer” How wonder builds empathy and strengthens our connection to others What travel can teach us about surrendering to life’s mystery Why creativity belongs to ALL of us How to begin finding your own “wild why” Listeners, give this episode a review on your favorite podcast platform!  You can also leave a review at my website or leave me a voicemail.  Subscribe to my newsletter Behind The Book.
