Saying YES to Your Big Idea

Overcoming Book Fear

This week in episode 4 of my new web show, Change Your Mind. Write Your Book. Scale Your Business. I’m joined by freelance writer & coach, Amber Petty!  We talk about why even seasoned writers like Amber get nervous when it comes to writing a book, how a book can help you scale your business, and moving through the “Who am I to write this book?” feeling. Amber helps creatives get bylines and build audiences. After acting for 13 years and getting tired of waiting to audition for roles like "Woman with legs spread at the gyno office," Amber moved into freelance writing where she worked with the New York Times, Parade, Bustle, and a bunch more. For the past 2 1/2 years, she’s helped 900+ students get bylines, start writing (for actual money), and begin newsletters to build a platform for their writing careers.  POST-EPISODE UPDATE: Amber is now writing her book and it will be available in 2024!
