In a world full of "I'll do it tomorrow" and "my expertise isn't enough," today's podcast episode is a breath of fresh air. Sandra Scaiano welcomes Allison Lane who flips the script and disarms the doubters, helping women step into their power and pen their bestselling narratives.

With her bold "stop pretending you're not a badass" approach, Allison reveals why so many brilliant women delay sharing their wisdom and how to break through those self-imposed barriers. If you've been thinking "someday I'll write that book," this conversation will change your perspective and show you why the time to claim your authority is NOW!

"There is nothing that's so diminishing as 'I wouldn't call myself an expert.' First of all, it's not up to you. You don't get to choose. Everyone else is looking to you for advice. You're an expert." – Allison Lane

"If you know that you have a book in you, that feeling is not gonna go away, and we don't want you to regret not trying. You don't have to build a brand in order to pitch your book. You're already the expert that you need to be." - Allison Lane

Allison’s advice isn’t just about writing; it’s about embracing your story and sharing it with the world. Stop waiting for permission. The Long Game is about playing smart, showing up, doing the work, and making a real impact.
