Lauren Dreher was born with a birthmark which was removed after many different procedures. She now has scars which for a long time she let define her (and not in a great way). She shifted this thinking and found confidence to use her experiences to help others look past their physical imperfections to find their own confidence.

Getting the guts to finally put herself out there and inspire others through her experience has taken Lauren a long time. This year, she published her book Go With Your Gut. Her passion is to help people shift their mindset. Lauren wants to teach people the tips, habits, and tools she's learned and use daily to keep her mindset in check….and positive.

Lauren's Tips:

1. Develop a detailed outline. Organize your thoughts, stories, etc; so you know how you want the book to flow.
2. Know the message you want your audience to take away from the book.
3. Just write! Find the time to sit down and write. Even if you don't feel like it, just get it down.
