In this episode, Sydney Paulsen and Kristen Washington are joined by the author of Kaya’s books, Janet Shaw, and Ann McCormack, a Nez Perce Tribe member on American Girl’s Kaya advisory board, who worked closely together to create Kaya and her world. 

We unpack the incredible journey of creating Kaya’s character and learn about some fascinating untold moments along the way… leaving us even more in love with Kaya than we already were.
