Are you ready to write a book that matters?

The book only YOU can write?

Are you ready to share a message that will move the world forward?

Your Soul Wants To Speak

When You Feel Called To Write A Book

And when you don't honor that call, it can feel painful, as though you're postponing your purpose. 

From my own experience, I know that several things may stand in the way of getting started.    

You doubt yourself. Who am I to write a book? Who will want to read what I write? Why would they want to read about my message when there are already other books on the topic? Those fears have kept you stuck for long enough. Now it’s time to claim the power of your message and give yourself a voice.

You don’t know where to begin. It can be hard to start something you’ve never done before—until someone shows you how. If you’ve put off writing your book because you don’t know where to start, this course will walk you through it step by step.   

You think you don’t have time. There will never be a “perfect” time to write your book. And the cost of NOT writing it is great. Once you know HOW to write it, you can make it a priority. 

You don’t know what to say.  Actually, I think you do. There’s a message in your heart that wants to come out, and I’ll help you find it.    

You think everything on your topic has already been said. If this were true, no new love songs would ever be written. We can never have too many messages that inspire and uplift us, and no one has written the book only YOU can write.
