I’m so excited to share some behind‑the‑scenes news with you. Jessie Cunniffe — the talented blurb writer and coach — brought her gift for words to Maternity Abroad, helping craft the blurb that now welcomes readers into the book.
And it’s working. Since its release, Maternity Abroad has reached mothers in over 13 countries, proving that the need for honest, compassionate guidance about pregnancy and birth abroad is universal.
Why Jessie’s Work Matters
A blurb isn’t just a paragraph on the back cover. It’s a reader’s first impression — the voice that whispers, this might be the book you’ve been searching for. Jessie captured the heart of Maternity Abroad in a way that feels authentic and inviting, making sure women everywhere could see themselves in its pages.
