In this episode, Elizabeth and Stephanie discuss why "The Alchemist" is a book every writer, creative, and entrepreneur should read. They touch upon quotes that provide inspiration and guidance on your writing journey. We all have a "personal legend" to discover in our life, and when we follow the path to uncover who we're meant to be, the universe opens the doors to make it happen. It looks different for every person, and it might sound a bit "woo woo", but you'll discover "The Alchemist" is a book that you can go back to time and time again to reflect on your journey. 

 Welcome to the Inspired Writer Collective podcast. If you've ever felt the pull to write your truth, to shape the chaos of real life into something meaningful and to share your journey with the world, you're in the right place. We're your hosts, Elizabeth and Stephanie, writers, coaches, and entrepreneurs who believe in you and know how important it is to find a writing community to guide you on your path to self-publishing.
