So, you’ve been thinking about hiring a book writing coach to help you finally write your first book? Before you sign up for that coaching package or slide into someone’s DMs—pause!

Because listen… the right coach can absolutely help you birth that book. But hiring one before you're truly ready? Whew—that can leave you stuck, overwhelmed, and still staring at a blank page.

In today’s episode, I’m breaking down 4 key questions you need to ask yourself before investing in a coach. This is your moment to reflect, get honest, and really discern if coaching is the right next step for you.

We’ll talk about what it truly means to be prepared for the coaching journey, how to assess your needs and expectations, and why self-awareness plays a major role in your success as a first-time author.

Sis, these questions are your blueprint to making a wise and prayerful decision that aligns with your season and your story.

Be Encouraged,
