In this heartfelt episode, I sit down with author and mom Anna Marti to talk about her beautiful debut children’s book, Henrietta Harmonica Finds Her Song. Written out of her own experience with grief after losing her father, Anna’s book is a tender and uplifting story that helps children process loss through the lens of faith and hope in Christ.
We explore Anna’s creative process, how Henrietta’s journey mirrors her own, and how music and faith played a key role in her healing. Anna also shares her heart for encouraging fellow parents, how she balances writing with motherhood, and why pointing kids to Christ in the hard moments matters more than ever.
Whether you’re a parent, teacher, pastor, or simply someone who believes in the healing power of stories, this interview will bless you. Tune in to hear about faith, loss, love, and the beautiful message behind Henrietta Harmonica Finds Her Song.
