Success as an author isn’t just about writing a great book—it’s about making intentional, strategic choices that drive visibility, sales, and career growth. But what if the biggest thing standing between you and your goals… is you?
In this eye-opening episode, we shine a light on the subtle yet powerful ways authors often sabotage their own success—without even realizing it. From common marketing missteps and unrealistic expectations to limiting beliefs and mindset traps, we explore the hidden habits and thought patterns that can quietly derail your momentum.
Whether you’re a debut author trying to build your platform or a seasoned writer looking to level up, this conversation will help you identify what might be holding you back—and more importantly, how to move forward with clarity and confidence.
You’ll learn:
•The most common self-sabotaging behaviors authors fall into (and how to avoid them)
•How to shift your mindset to think like an author-entrepreneur
•Why treating your book like a business is essential for long-term success
•Practical, actionable strategies to get out of your own way and start making real progress
