Phillipa Soo and Maris Pasquale Doran, PIPER CHEN SINGS

Award-winning actress Phillipa Soo (best known for the role of Eliza in HAMILTON) and her sister-in-law and co-author Maris Pasquale Doran join Zibby to discuss PIPER CHEN SINGS, an empowering and heartwarming children’s book about a girl who turns performance jitters into confidence when singing a solo at her school concert. Maris, who draws from her career in psychotherapy, and Phillipa talk about their own experiences with stage fright and anxiety and connect them to the book’s main topics: big emotions, mindfulness, and managing uncertainty. They also talk about the creative and collaborative process behind this project—from brainstorming on FaceTime to refining the art with their incredible illustrator, Qin Leng.Purchase on Bookshop: https://bit.ly/43GV5tmShare, rate, & review the podcast, and follow Zibby on Instagram @zibbyowens!
