S2 Ep. 19 | Becoming an Author: The Wild Fun House Ride of My First Book Launch
Ever said yes to something so big it made you want to throw up and cheer at the same time?
That’s exactly what happened when I became a first-time author. In this episode, recorded just two days after my book went live, I pull back the curtain on the fun house ride of a book launch, from the adrenaline highs to the vulnerable lows, and everything in between.
This isn’t a polished success story. It’s the raw, real look at what happens when you give a full-body yes, face down imposter syndrome, and discover the messy middle of becoming her. Whether your dream is to write a book, start a business, or finally say yes to that scary thing on your heart, this conversation is proof that you don’t need to feel “ready” to rise.
✔️ The “fun house” truth of launch day: the mirrors, the whiplash, and why it’s never just a straight path.
✔️ How to handle judgment, envy, and the silence of people you thought would cheer the loudest.
✔️ Why courage counts more than perfection, and the identity shifts that happen between yes and finish line.
On the other side of the rollercoaster is growth, clarity, and the favorite version of you. If this resonates, grab the book, leave a review, and share this episode with a friend who needs the reminder that your courage is enough.
