Emma graduated from AUT with a degree in Graphic Design in 2018. She wrote and illustrated The Girl Who Was Scared Of Everything based on her own experiences with anxiety and depression. At first, she wrote it as an outlet for her own anxiety, until feedback from parents and teachers in her life encouraged her to make it into a reality. Her dream for this book is to introduce the concept of exposure therapy to children, by focusing on how enjoyable life can be when we face our fears head on. The book also includes a DIY section for parents and children to fill in together, by making a list of the support people in that child's life. The aim of this is to start a conversation around who children can look to for support when they feel scared or anxious.
