In this episode, we’re joined by the one and only Betty Cayoutte—viral creator behind Betty’s Book List and debut author of Tell Me How You Really Feel. Betty opens up about turning internet buzz into a book deal, writing with heart and honesty, and how travel, connection, and community fuel her storytelling. We dive into what it’s really like to go from recommending books to writing one, the power of vulnerability, and why she’s all about championing voices that might otherwise go unheard. If you love book talk, big feelings, and bold first chapters—in fiction and life—you won’t want to miss this one.
Thank you so much for listening, bookish besties!
