She is also an entrepreneur and founder of Women of Today, a lifestyle site and community powered by women around the globe. She lives in Texas with her husband, Matthew McConaughey, and their three children. Camila was a mushroom skeptic for thirty-seven years, until a bowl of veggie Bolognese in 2020 turned her into a mushroom lover. Keep trying those veggies! About Adam Mansbach Adam Mansbach is a novelist, screenwriter, cultural critic and humorist. He is the author of the #1 New York Times bestseller Go the F*** to Sleep, which has been translated into forty languages, named Time Magazine's 2011 "Thing of the Year," and sold over two million copies worldwide. The 2014 sequel, "You Have to F****** Eat," is also a New York Times bestseller. Mansbach was recently nominated for an Independent Spirit Award and an NAACP Image Award for his screenplay BARRY. The film premiered to rave reviews at the Toronto International Film Festival, where it was acquired by Netflix.

KeeKee's Big Adventures in Rome, Italy received a Gold Mom's Choice Award in April 2013. Her third book, KeeKee's Big Adventures in Athens, Greece, landed October 2014 and just received a Gold Mom's Choice Award. Shannon and I talk about Why, even though Shannon got interest from traditional publishers, she decided to self-publish. The unusual process through which she found a great illustrator. Her editor is Lisa Pliscou. Her printer, Phoenix Color. The Bilingual pronunciation guide in her books. Getting geography lessons from a cat. The KeeKee Club.
