Exclusive interview with best-selling author, poet and performer Aija Mayrock

 

I had the opportunity to exclusively interview best selling author, poet and performer Aija Mayrock. Aija self published her first book 'The Survival Guide to Bullying' when she was only 19-years-old which was then acquired by Scholastic and published all over the world. She has spoken to over four million people nationwide on bullying and mental health and joined Disney Channel's 'Choose Kindness' campaign. Aija has performed at the Girlboss Rally, Madison Square Gardens and worked with Coca Cola, American Girl and Philosophy. She was chosen as one of the Today Show’s heroes in 2018 and has just written her second book 'Dear Girl' which is available to purchase on the 25th august.

In this episode tuning in from New York City, Aiea and I talk about her new book, her writing process, what advice she would give her younger self, life in New York City, her favourite poets and poems and so much more.
