Writing and publishing my first book came with a LOT of trial and error, let me tell you. In this episode I’m sharing the top seven things I would have done differently so you don’t have to repeat my mistakes. From treating writing as a healing process, to owning my author identity, to actually having a post-launch plan (yes, that part matters too), I’m pulling back the curtain on what really makes your book a success.

Whether you’re writing your first book or preparing for your next one, these are the shifts that can save you time, stress, and missed opportunities.


Here are the Highlights:


04:32 – Exposing yourself BEFORE your launch changes everything

10:38 – Stepping into your author identity

16:11 – How to talk about your book non-stop (without feeling annoying)

20:43 – The trap of comparison and what being a good writer really means

25:02 – The critical step of a post-launch plan

31:54 – Why it’s a game changer to invest in PR


Here are the links I was telling you about!
