In this podcast, Alexa and Nikki discuss:

• Nikki Nash’s journey to becoming a Hay House author and marketing expert:
  From wanting to be a journalist to becoming a Fortune 100 marketer and finally starting her own entrepreneurial journey after a wake-up call about family health, Nikki’s inspiring story highlights the power of following your purpose.
  
  
• The power of big-picture thinking:
  Nikki emphasizes creating a bold vision and leveraging your book as a tool to connect with larger audiences, organizations, or opportunities. For example, positioning your book as a vehicle for massive impact rather than focusing solely on individual clients.
  
  
• Monetization strategies for authors:
  
  
  • Beyond book sales: Acknowledge that most authors don’t become wealthy from book sales alone.
  • As a feeder: Use the book to introduce coaching, memberships, or courses.
  • For leverage: Build a brand and vision that attracts collaborations, large-scale deals, or other major opportunities.
    
    
• Practical advice for dream building and impact creation:
  
  
  • Dedicate specific time each week to think big, whether that’s reaching out to influencers, pitching large-scale collaborations, or refining your vision.
  • Limit working hours for "lifestyle money" (e.g., 25 hours per week or less) to focus on generational wealth and impactful projects.
    
    
• Key tips for writing and aligning your book with your vision:
  
  
  • Get on the playing field: Understand your audience’s pain points and write a book that solves their problems.
  • Utilize beta readers: Share your drafts with a group who can comment on clarity, resonance, and areas for expansion.
  • Ensure alignment with your big vision while focusing on practical solutions you’ve already mastered.
    
    
• Nikki’s actionable mindset shift:
  Don’t get stuck in survival mode. Pay your bills, but allocate time and resources to dream-building and thinking beyond the day-to-day grind.
