S3: Why Writing a Book is Your Smartest Business Decision

Listen Later

I get a bit spicy in this episode (in the best possible way) about why writing a book isn't just another business task to tick off - it's your ticket to the stages and spaces that have been missing female voices for far too long.

Key takeaways from this episode:
  • Why conference organisers are desperately seeking women who can back up their brilliance with a book
  • Why your "I'm not ready yet" story is probably keeping company with "I'll start on Monday" and other lies we tell ourselves
  • How your book becomes your most elegant business asset - doing the heavy lifting while you're walking the dog or contemplating your laundry pile
  • Why waiting to write your book is like saving your best outfit for a special occasion that never comes
  • The beautiful irony of realising your book is already partially written - scattered across your podcasts, newsletters, and workshop content (whoop!)

    • And loads more!

    This episode is your permission slip to stop waiting for the perfect moment to write your book. Because here's the truth: while you're hesitating, someone else is taking that keynote spot, landing that corporate contract, or becoming the go-to voice in your industry. 

    The time for playing small is over - your expertise deserves a book, and more importantly, other women deserve to hear it.
