Your Book as a Transformational Tool

Welcome, listeners, to Women Emerging Fearlessly, the podcast dedicated to helping women live with fearless confidence, and to know how amazing they truly are. I’m your host, Janelle Anderson, and in Episode 58, I invite you to listen in as I speak with Susan Crossman, an author, editor, and book coach who says she “lives to harness the power of a good story to the goal of peace on Earth.”

Susan has authored five books, provides editing and coaching services, and runs online programs for emerging authors. She helps other “forward-thinking entrepreneurs polish their stories to make a difference in the world” through her company, the Awakening Author.

We chat about why it took Susan thirteen years to write her first book, what to do when your book (if you’re an author/aspiring author) “taps you on the shoulder,” how to get over the "mind trash" that gets in the way of you writing a great book (can be applied to whatever creative endeavor is before you), the benefits of becoming a published author, how writing books transforms the author, and so much more. You won’t want to miss this episode!
