In this episode, I'm thrilled to welcome back the wonderful Dr. Amy Leigh Wicks. Together, we dive deep into the art and craft of writing a book. We explore essential topics like finding your writing rhythm, nurturing a consistent writing practice, and embracing a holistic perspective on creativity.
Dr. Wicks shares her insights on overcoming resistance, drafting your first manuscript, and defining your story's central theme. We discuss the importance of creating freely and the value of having an internal supportive team, including writers, editors, and marketers.
With her characteristic warmth and wisdom, Dr. Wicks reminds us that our personal stories are part of a larger, collective narrative. Stories, she believes, offer hope, wonder, curiosity, and healing.

In this thought-provoking episode, I’m joined again by my friend Chantelle Nelson. We dive deep into the intricate dance between our ego and our authentic selves. What does it truly mean to be yourself in a world that often pressures us to conform? Join us as we explore the concept of authenticity and the struggle to stay true to who we are amidst societal expectations.
We'll tackle the pervasive issue of imposter syndrome and how it can lead us to sacrifice our genuine selves for the sake of acceptance. Our experiences shape who we are, and understanding this can help us reclaim parts of ourselves that we might have lost along the way.
Feeling small or disconnected from your true self can often be a sign of self-abandonment. This episode emphasizes the importance of self-acceptance—recognizing and embracing all aspects of yourself, including both strengths and weaknesses, and ultimately coming home to the person you truly are.
Tune in for an enlightening discussion that will inspire you to embark on your own journey of self-discovery and authenticity.
