Are you a woman who feels like something in your body is off, even when doctors say everything's "normal?" Do you dream of making a bigger impact but feel held back by internal or external obstacles? In this episode of the Brain Health Hook-up podcast, Laurel interviews Rebecca Paciorek, a successful entrepreneur who helps authors bring their books to the world.

Rebecca shares her personal journey of navigating health challenges, including weight loss surgery and type 2 diabetes, and how the WellTuned Woman program provided unique support and insights that traditional healthcare couldn't. She highlights the importance of female camaraderie, especially for entrepreneurs facing perimenopause and menopause, and discusses the transformative power of group drumming.

Rebecca also talks about her work with authors, sharing strategies for achieving bestseller status and building a successful author platform. This conversation emphasizes the importance of community, self-advocacy, and pursuing your passions, regardless of the challenges you face.

Key Takeaways:

• The Power of Community: Connecting with other women who understand your experiences, especially during perimenopause/menopause and as an entrepreneur, can be incredibly validating and empowering.
• Beyond "Normal": Don't settle for feeling less than your best. If you feel something is off, even if medical tests say otherwise, continue to seek answers and advocate for your health.
• Root Cause Focus: Explore the root causes of health issues like inflammation, hormonal imbalances, and cortisol levels, which can significantly impact overall well-being.
• Drumming for Wellness: Group drumming can be a powerful tool for stress relief, connection, and self-expression, offering a tangible experience of interconnectedness.
• Author Empowerment: Strategies like promo stacking, targeted advertising, and building a strong author platform can help authors achieve bestseller status and reach a wider audience.
• Overcoming Obstacles: Don't let past setbacks or perceived limitations hold you back from pursuing your dreams. With the right support and strategies, you can achieve your goals.
• Strategic Marketing for Authors: Building a book marketing plan with a focus on strategy, patience, and testing can enable authors to achieve full-time author status.
