The Write Mindset with T.C. Burr Change your mind. Write your book.

This episode is packed with inspirational advice, tactical guidance, and entrepreneurial wisdom from business owner Becca Campbell.

Becca and her husband Chad have successfully launched multiple business, learning as they go, and have helped countless others along the way.

Her first company, Little Z's Sleep Consulting, was created in 2015 out of a personal need when she had her first daughter. Since then she has helped tens of thousands of families resolve exhausting sleep habits, and now she's a Pediatric Sleep Consultant, helping so many parents make sleep a thing.

Since then, she's also coached other sleep consultants, and she's helped other business owners create their own online courses.

With their latest venture, Becca and Chad are doing even more to help content creators Teach Well Online.

Becca has always been entrepreneurial, even as a kid.

She's always willing to try something new, and she's learned that her best work happens when she starts pursuing an idea, and figures out the details along the way.

She encourages you to get going with your thing, and she reminds us that if we wait until we have it all figured out, we'll never make any progress.

On this episode, I'm excited to introduce you to my friend Carrie, one of the most inspirational people I've ever met.

Carrie wasn't athletic in school.

She wasn't into sports, and fitness and wellness were not regular topics of thought for her.

But as an adult, she began to recognize a joy deficiency in her life. Something had to change, and she recognized that her mental and physical wellness was a big part of the formula.

She started small, but she started.

She got a Fitbit, and started with about 500 steps a day. Today, she leads 20 members of her Fit Fam crew, and inspires countless others to be their best selves.

Listen as Carrie and I discuss:

and she even touches on how her wellness journey has made her a better mom.

I'll never forget the first time I said it out loud.

"I'm writing a book."

It felt at the same time completely foreign and totally natural coming out of my mouth.

But it was one of the most pivotal steps I've taken on my writing journey.

Whether you're an aspiring writer, a budding entrepreneur, creative visionary, or a goal-minded individual, bringing your work out into the open brings with it amazing benefits.

It can springboard your success and help unlock your potential.

On this empowering episode, I discuss the value of getting your goal, idea, or side hustle out in the open. One of the first steps to transforming your goals into tangible success is telling other people about what you're working on.

At first, it can be terrifying. Your thing is brand new, you're struggling with imposter syndrome and wondering how you'll ever accomplish the big goal you've dreamed up. Who can write an entire book, or start a business from scratch?

But when you bring it out to the open, some amazing things happen:

1. It legitimizes your work. It makes it real, both to you and to your hearers.

2. It identifies who your allies are. Those people who lean in, who can encourage you to keep going.

3. It invites encouragement, feedback, and accountability - three critical ingredients for any goal, whether it's a new book, a startup business, or anything else.

Invite others in - there's so much value in community.

Want to supercharge your goals? I've created a simple formula that can help you get started, and keep going.

Bonus Episode!

Yet listeners know that for the past ~5 months, I've been working on my first novel.

Many of you have asked on social media and elsewhere for an update and a preview of the book.

I have completed the first draft, and am entering into the self-editing process. This is all brand new for me, but I'm having a lot of fun and learning a ton as I go.

On this bonus episode, listen as I read an excerpt of my manuscript - words that just might end up being the introduction to the book.

This is a story about friendship, and about growing up. It' s a work of fiction, but it's loosely based on my experience as a young man, under the warm Virginia sun, catching smallmouth bass with my best friends on a stretch of the James River at the intersection and in the shadow of towering mountain peaks.

As you listen, I hope you get a feel for what I believe is one of the most beautiful places on earth, and one of the most formative seasons of life.

A new year is the time we most think about, set, and start working toward new goals.

The problem is, we are notoriously bad at achieving our New Years resolutions.

Like, catastrophically bad.

In fact, one study suggests that 92% of New Years resolutions fail.

Why do we have such trouble staying with our goals? And why do we keep setting them and failing in them, year after year?

There are lots of reasons, and we got into a few on this episode.

More importantly, let's talk about what we can do to change it.

On this episode, I share three tips that will help you set and progress toward realistic, achievable goals that still feel ambitious.

What if you could take years of entrepreneurial wisdom and pack it into a 30m conversation?

I'm so excited to introduce my first podcast guest, Danielle!

She started off doing a favor for her friend's small business, then quickly realized she loved the work, so she started her own business.

Danielle does not have the "entrepreneurial gene." She's risk averse. She doesn't like taking chances, she works with tools she knows and loves. Even her job title is Risk Manager.

But her love for bulldogs, her desire to create, and her interest in giving back has overpowered her fears and launched her into a new world of designing and printing quality apparel and accessories, and she's fallen in love with it.

She doesn't have it all figured out - she's learning a lot as she goes. But she's going.

On this episode, listen as we discuss:

- Danielle's story of seeing an opportunity, stepping in to help, and turning it into her own LLC

- the power of mentors & community

- knowing your strengths and weaknesses

- making wise investments, especially early on

- how focusing on small tasks can really add up to something amazing

- her love of MS Excel

What goal or idea have you been avoiding? Today is a great day to make a plan and start making progress.

Because it's not that you haven't done it - it's just that you haven't done it yet.
