A lot of parents have to travel for work but in the new children's book "Daddy Goes to Space,” a child envisions their dad as a super-cool space ranger embarking on an exciting adventure, when in reality, he is just in another town on business. The adventure was inspired by author Melissa White’s child’s wild imagination. The author, nurse practitioner, and mom joined host Paige Hulsey to share the story behind her story and remind other working parents that it’s ok to love your work and let go of the guilt.
