One of the most common questions I hear from aspiring authors is, “How do I know if I’m ready to write my book?” In this episode, we’re cutting through the hesitation and getting clear on what readiness really looks like—because the truth is, waiting for the “perfect time” often means never starting at all.
I walk you through five powerful signs that you’re ready to begin writing now, not six months or two years from now. We’ll talk about why proximity to your reader matters, how real-world experience builds credibility, and why passion—not perfection—is what carries you through the writing process. I’ll also share why creating protected writing time is non-negotiable, how embracing writing as a learnable skill changes everything, and why believing in the value of your message is the difference between staying stuck and finishing your book.
If you’ve been feeling the nudge to write but fear, doubt, or busyness keeps getting in the way, this episode will help you assess your readiness, reclaim your confidence, and take the next right step forward.
