In the inaugural episode of The Fallout Chronicles, memoirist and writing coach Ingrid Ricks shares her inspiring journey of overcoming personal adversity through storytelling. Ingrid discusses her early fascination with journalism, the influence of her free-spirited father, and how writing her memoir 'Hippie Boy' became a path to healing. She delves into her struggles with imposter syndrome and guilt, the pivotal moments that pushed her to write, and how sharing her story has transformed her life and the lives of others. Ingrid also highlights her work with teens and adults, helping them find their voices and heal through personal narrative writing.
We also get a first glimpse into Ingrid's latest memoir (still in development), that focuses on her father, who, caught in a spiraling game of deception, had set out to con others but ultimately became trapped in a larger, more intricate con in Africa—leading to a self-imposed incarceration of his own making.
