#1104: Do you have a difficult story to write?

Top Tips From The Write Coach

✍️ Know when to take a break.

✍️ A good editor will ask difficult questions. 

✍️ Write what matters.


Have you endured emotional pain and desire to tell your story?

Trauma is difficult to write about. Give yourself breaks when reliving traumatic moments. 


Elizabeth Somboun survived child abuse and being sex trafficked at the age of 3 by a family member. Listen to her story of overcoming trauma and how she wrote Elevators of my Life to help people heal and share her story.


July 30th was World Day Against Human Trafficking! Elizabeth is doing her part to make people aware of the many children of all ages living in this sick and depraved world of sex trafficking.


We talk about many tough topics in this episode, but nothing is graphic. Elizabeth will inspire you to find the joy in writing and ditch your perfectionism.


Every powerful story contains emotion but not necessarily trauma. Powerful stories come from your life experiences. People want to know how you accomplished success, overcame depression, or created a million dollar business model. 


"Don't get caught up in the fear of rejection! Write for the love of storytelling!

Put your soul on paper and let people see the dimensions within you.

Find joy in the process of writing!"
