Author, Producer, Mother, Host of MOMGUL
 

After having two under two, Raquel relocated her family from Los Angeles to her native Ohio. While her life and location may have changed, her career goal remains the same -- to make hard things easier to talk about.

Her first book, Where’d I Go?, flips your typical lift-the-flap board book on it’s head– written not for babies, but for moms. The book offers a humorous and relatable take on the ride that is motherhood, including the identity crisis many women- Raquel included- experience once becoming a mother. 

Hysterical yet heartwarming, this little board book delivers a big message: mothers are women, too. Born from Raquel’s personal battle with postpartum depression, this book sets out to discuss maternal mental health in a uniquely lighthearted and less frightening way, in hopes that more mothers who are experiencing similar struggles will find comfort and resources to help. 

RAQUEL KELLEY is a mother, writer, television producer, and host of the MOMGUL Podcast. She began her career at E! Entertainment where she worked for over a decade producing shows such as Live! From the Red Carpet, Sports Soup, and Fashion Police. She was also the Los Angeles expert for Conde Nast at BRIDES Magazine and an internationally featured contributor for The HuffPost.
