A Real Life Fairy Tale Series: An Interview with Emberli Pridham
from Issue 31
TELL US ABOUT YOUR BOOK!
I was reading to my daughter one night - it was a fun fiction fairytale - and I thought: how amazing would it be to read about a real princess that did so much good for the world?
“A Real Life Fairy Tale Series: Princess Diana” takes young readers through her years as a spunky girl in Norfolk, England to her courtship by Queen Elizabeth’s son, Prince Charles, through to her emergence as one of contemporary history‘s most accomplished fighters for social change. I wrote this book to introduce Princess Diana’s elegance in philanthropy to today’s younger generation. She exemplified grace and approachability - something that our kids can grow and inspire to be like.
WHAT INSPIRED YOU TO START YOUR BUSINESS AND BECOME A FEMALE FOUNDER?
My Grandmother inspired me! She was an author and writer also. She wrote a motivational book about facing your fears and overcoming obstacles in life. She was truly inspiring and very much missed. I think it is so important to teach our generation of ladies to go after their dreams and never give up!
CAN YOU SHARE A MEMORABLE MOMENT THAT SOLIDIFIED YOUR DECISION TO PURSUE ENTREPRENEURSHIP?
Before I became the mom of three amazing children, I worked in fashion doing events, styling, visuals, and management. It was fun but I wasn’t sure what to do after I had kids. Before my Grandmother passed, she told me to be a writer and I brushed it off; but the thought of writing kept coming back to mind.
After releasing a seven-book series with my husband, inspiring our generation of children to learn about inventions, I decided to branch out on my own and write an inspiring book series about influential women who used their platform for the good of others! I want to motivate and inspire our young ladies to dream and remind them that they can do anything they put their minds to!
