Finish and publish your book now!

I’m so excited to begin this journey with you to share what I’ve learned in my career publishing 20 books, multiple card sets, in more than a dozen languages that have led me to travel to more than 30 countries to lead workshops! 

Even if that's not your goal, (and it wasn't mine when I started) I just want you to start finishing your book today!

In this course you can learn what took me years, like:

  •  You don’t need an agent to work with a major publisher
  •  You can market yourself and not feel icky or self-promotional
  •  You don’t need write a whole book to get a deal, and you probably shouldn’t
  •  You don’t need a big social media presence 
  •  Anyone can get quoted in major media outlets
  •  You can land prestigious speaking engagements
  •  Your writing, teaching, clinical and healing work can all inform your creative process and bring meaning back to your career!

What you get:

  •  8 hours of video from experts broken down into modules
  •  Worksheets and more
  •  Dozens of sample proposals to work from
  •  A community of authors with you on your journey
  •  Learn how to get discovered, and the truth about self-publishing, agents, advance sizes and more
  •  Finish with a proposal ready for agents or acquisitions edit
  •  An e-book and worksheets with prompts and reflections that move you toward your goal
  •  Opportunities to connect for live coaching about your proposal and ideas

 

There are two options for this course, get the digital course with all the materials for you to write and publish your book.

What the course does:

  •  Help you shape and bring your ideas to life in a book, program or talk that you know can impact more than just one client or classroom at a time.
  •  I’ve successfully published more than two dozen books, plus cards and games, from clinical manuals to self-help to kids books and more, but more rewarding has been helping at least one writer become an author every time I’ve run this workshop in person or online.

How it works:

 

On your timeline, you can watch part or all 8 hours of the 5 modules that introduce you to publishing and writing for healers, and move you toward your proposal and book.

You’ll get handouts and worksheets, along with sample proposals to work from and insider advice.

If you want more support or to join a group, you can get in touch any time. 

By the end of the course, you will have developed a book proposal with a strong hook, including a marketing plan, and created a plan for publishing, and whatever comes after

​More details are here, and then set up a free 1:1 call about your goals and fit for the course.

But basically, you watch short videos on your own time about the week's theme, discuss with us and others online, and meet for weekly conversations with us. You'll get custom worksheets that help you move toward your goal of completing a proposal ready for an agent or acquisitions editor.
