About this listen

Hi there I am K.L. Leadingham the author of The Enchanting Eclipse. As everyone knows I wrote a book inspired by my life events, and what led me to becoming a stripper. My book touches on the darker themes of life, and since publishing other dancers have reached out wanting to share their stories. So I decided to turn my book into a series inspired by their stories. I am creating this podcast to give a platform to other individuals in the book community who have also struggled with things like addiction, mental health, and trauma. I hope everyone enjoys and is just as excited as I am!K.L. Leadingham Art
