In this episode of Books That Changed My Life, host Chris Collins sits down with the extraordinary Tembi Locke — actor, author, TV writer and producer, host of the podcast LIFTED, and now, narrator of her brand-new audiobook memoir Someday, Now, available starting today.
Tembi is also an amateur herbalist, photographer, and passionate collector of cookbooks — but today, she’s here in a different role: as a reader whose life was transformed by a single book.
That book is The Sum of Our Days by Isabel Allende, a deeply personal memoir of love, grief, family, and resilience. In a warm and moving conversation, Tembi shares how Allende’s words helped her navigate her own journey through profound loss, creativity, and healing.
From the intimacy of storytelling to the power of reclaiming joy, this episode is a testament to how the right book at the right time can change everything.
