I work with people in midlife who have dreamed of writing a book but never had the time or resources to do it, and who are now finally ready to put themselves first. You want to accomplish this goal that’s been marinating in the back of your mind and the bottom of your heart for years. If that’s you, you’re in the right place.
Do you have a book idea inside you but fear you don’t have the skills to write it?
Do you write with self-doubt (or not write at all) because you think you’re too old and it’s too late?
Are you afraid your idea isn’t worthy of a book, or that it’s already been done?
Is your idea clear in your head, but the second you try to get it on the page, it falls apart?
It’s usually not the demands of work and family that keep people from writing. It’s the four-letter F-word: fear. Fear of failing, of not having what it takes, of not having anything new to say, of what people will think. Here’s the good part about midlife: you get to choose you. Now is the time, and coaching is how you do it.
I’m an Author Accelerator Certified Book Coach with certifications in fiction, nonfiction, and memoir. The training was designed and delivered by Author Accelerator founder Jennie Nash, whose coaching clients have landed top agents and major publishing deals, and I keep training with Jennie and other industry pros.
I also created a journaling method called Writing the W.A.V.E.S.© (Writing the Way to Acceptance, Validation, and Empowerment through our Stories) to help you build a consistent practice and mine your experiences for the good stuff. I use it alongside meditation, writing exercises, and other creativity tools to help you unlock your most creative self.
