In this episode, Helen speaks with Sarah Manley, ICF accredited career coach for introverts and author of ‘The Quiet Catalyst: The introvert's guide to thriving in your career.’

Sarah shares how she learned to embrace her quiet strengths during a successful corporate career and how she transitioned to becoming a published author and launching her coaching practice both within the same year. Sarah offers honest insights about the writing process, going from a stack of Post-it notes to finished manuscript, and we discuss how to avoid the quick-fix promises in both the coaching and the publishing industries.

We cover:

Making the leap from corporate life to coaching and authorship
Finding creative inspiration through retreats and rest
The power of quiet leadership and leveraging introverted strengths in the workplace
Working with a hybrid publisher and navigating the publishing process
The reality of post-publication marketing and building long-term book success
Building community as an author and coach
