You think it’s about the book.

But really? It’s about believing your voice matters.

In this powerful episode, publishing expert Michelle Vandepas joins me to talk about the delicate dance between vulnerability and visibility, the self-trust required to bring your message to life, and the purpose behind the work and the work behind the purpose.
Whether you’re writing a book, building a business, or simply navigating the fear of being seen—this episode will shift the way you think about creativity, authorship, and personal growth.
