Good Morning,
Fall is nearly here in SW LA. We get a few cooler mornings followed by 80+ degree mornings but it's a 'comin with the leaves turning red and orange. Speaking of the beauty of the changing leaves, Please welcome my guest, Cleanne Johnson with her book, Beauty of Colors Poems.
I met Cleanne when we had a conversation for her Beauty of Colors podcast. Check it out HERE.
Thanks for visiting with us today, Cleanne. Please tell us a little about yourself and your book.
Before I ever understood the power of my own voice, writing became the place where I could be completely honest. It gave me somewhere to put the emotions I couldn't always say out loud, the hurt, the questions, the hope, and eventually, the love I learned to have for myself.
About the Author: Cleanne Lynn Johnson is an award-winning author, registered dietitian, podcast host, and advocate for self-love, confidence, and authentic living. At the heart of her work is a simple but powerful message: our differences are not something to hide they are part of what makes us beautiful.
I wrote Beauty of Colors Poems because I wanted to turn those emotions into something that could inspire someone else. Poetry became my way of showing that beauty exists everywhere not only in what we see, but in who we are, what we have survived, and what makes each of us different.
Through nature, personal experiences, self-love, spirituality, and reflection, I wanted these poems to remind readers that their uniqueness is something to embrace, not hide. Beauty of Colors Poems is ultimately a celebration of identity, resilience, and the many colors that make each person's journey beautiful.
About the Book: These poems will lift your inner spirit, and transform your life, give you a sense of purpose, belonging an appreciation for beauty in and around you. This collection of poems will draw you to the core of the earth and make you realize you are special, unique and created by a creator being one with the earth. So, fuel yourself from these poems an arise to the top.
Enjoy an Excerpt: Canvas of Colors
Colors of earth in the rainbow
Cannot be separated, or smeared
Celestially connected with each other creating a canvas of
euphoria
Yet so different in their own singularity.
Every pigment, every ray emission has its own unique
purpose.
Its reason for being what it is, what it is supposed to do?
There are no inferior or superior, no argument.
Cohabiting together
To craft regality in its own unique form in the sky where
they survive
And others being on the galaxy marvel in awe
Curious as to where its creativity lies.
Wondering why earth is not like the rainbow
They are created equal, no flaws, no wickedness was found
on their color,
Until the darker rainbow thought that the bright rainbow
gave out more luminosity and glow.
Her journey as a writer grew from her own experiences with bullying, low self-confidence, and learning to embrace the person she saw in the mirror. Writing became a safe place for Cleanne to express emotions she could not always put into words and eventually became a way to encourage others to recognize their own worth.
Cleanne is the author of several books spanning poetry, self-development, and fiction. Her works include Beauty of Colors Poems, Love My Colors, Finding Beauty In and Out: Confidence – Self-Love – True Self, and The Love Hate I Get. Across genres, her writing explores identity, resilience, belonging, self-acceptance, and the courage to live authentically.
Her literary work has received recognition, including a Readers' Favorite Gold Medal in the Poetry – General category for Beauty of Colors Poems. She has also been recognized as a finalist for the International Impact Book Awards Author of the Year 2026.
Beyond writing, Cleanne is the creator and host of the Beauty of Colors Podcast, where she provides a platform for conversations about personal journeys, resilience, creativity, health, purpose, and transformation. As a registered dietitian, she also brings years of experience helping individuals make meaningful changes in their health and relationship with food.
Whether through a book, podcast conversation, or her professional work, Cleanne's mission remains consistent: to encourage people to embrace their individuality, find strength in their experiences, and understand that becoming who they truly are begins with accepting and loving themselves.
