Here's a really cool idea: create a program that helps your write your book.

When you create a program you get to take your best ideas, turn them into a clear process, AND help a group of people in real time. You get feedback and make adjustments along the way so that your process gets even better.

Then you write your book knowing that you're writing something that really helps people.

Both your program and your book allow you to help more people and get known for your work.

That's what today's guest, Dr. Christen Mullane has been up to.

She's a clinical psychologist and certified meditation teacher. She is the owner of Ginkgo Leaf Health Services, a psychotherapy practice aimed at providing services for those who have experienced medical stress and trauma. She offers a therapy program called RISE, which specifically focuses on trauma-informed mindfulness within this population.

She's also the author of Medical Stress & Trauma.

I'm proud to say that she's a grad of Create Your Program.

Here's some of what we talked about on this week's podcast episode:

• The process Christen went through to publish her workbook and create her group program
• How running her program is different from her therapy sessions
• How she brought a trauma informed lens to her program and her book
• Annie and Christen's young parts showing up when they get more visible
• How Christen finds safe spaces to get honest, actionable feedback
• The lightbulb moment when Christen realized she needed to work in a new way
• Finding the uniqueness of her message while giving credit to all of her sources
• How she got participants for her program through networking, list building and SEO
