Being visible on the radio
If you’re writing a book or stepping up in your business, you’ll need to become more visible. I’m sure you’ll be doing it to get noticed by the right people and reach those who need to hear your message. So it’s a good thing, right? Earlier this week, I was invited to do an interview on Katie…
Read MoreJenny Phillips' 'Eat to Outsmart Cancer' book writing story
This week I’d like to tell you about Jenny Phillips. An inspirational nutritionist, I had the pleasure of meeting Jenny last spring at an event in London. She told me how she had survived cancer in her late 30’s after discovering the importance of nutrition in her recovery. Her dream was to write a book to help others…
Read MoreGina Visram's book writing story
It’s all well and good me telling you how to write your book, but how does it really work in practice? What does it take to fit it in around a full-time job, a busy business, or other demands on your time? And how does being published really work as a tool to raise your authority? That’s why…
Read MoreWriting a book? You must do this first!
70% of my one-to-one clients are writing or have written a book. They recognise the power of being an author in the ongoing growth of their business. But the writing isn’t where it starts. Nor is it with the marketing. Before they put any words onto paper, there is one essential thing that they really…

I say to my clients that writing a book isn’t for the fainthearted. It’s a hell of a feat and if you’re not ready for some of the ups and downs that go with the process, then I suggest you don’t go there. My writing has often been fuelled by coffee and chocolate. Let’s be…
Read MoreWhat happens if you're never ready?
After my book launch a couple of weeks ago, I breathed a sigh of relief. As much as I had the time of my life, it had been a manic rush to be ready for the event. But this relief was short lived, as the next day I was at a mastermind day with my…
Read MoreWhat happens when you write a book
At 11am today I rushed to the door as I heard the post land on the mat. In the pile of mail was a parcel for me containing the first copy of my new book. You’d have thought that as this is my third book, I wouldn’t have had a thumping heart and butterflies as I…
Read MoreWant to write a book – make it important enough!
One of the 7 biggest mistakes that many business owners make when they write a book is this: they don’t make writing their book important enough. Is it really worth starting to write a book if you are never going to make it happen? How would you feel if you wrote thousands of words and never finished…
Read MoreYour reverse bucket list
What is a reverse bucket list? On the eve of my 40th birthday earlier this year, I wrote my reverse bucket list. I’d never heard of this term before my friend introduced me to the topic.
