Have you ever felt like God called you to share your message but you’re not sure you have what it takes to write a book?

My guest today, Susan Vanderpol, author of Life After Breath, didn't set out to be an author. She was grieving the loss of her Los Angeles City Firefighter husband, she had a calling she couldn't shake and a message she knew people desperately needed, but she had almost no writing experience and zero publishing connections.

Susan and I connected on PodMatch and I couldn’t wait for her to share how God opened door after door, and how every setback turned out to be exactly what her message needed.

Ever know in your gut that God has called you to write your book or share your message, but something keeps stealing your time? Or maybe there are lies keeping you stuck?

If so, I can’t wait for you to meet my new friend Rose Ann. She’s the Author of several books including her Transformed by His Promises Devotional and she also hosts the Say Goodbye And Imagine! Podcast.

We connected on PodMatch and I couldn’t wait to talk to Rose Anne about practical tools you can use the next time fear, self-doubt, or procrastination tries to talk you out of showing up.

If you've ever felt like your story is too raw, too risky, or too personal to put out into the world, you're not alone.

I’m so thrilled to have my sweet local friend Brittany on the show today. She’s the author of Stories Our Scars Tell: Hope, Healing, and Honesty about the Wounds We Carry.

She's sharing how she pushed past the fear of judgment over telling her story, found the courage to release control of her story, and how she’s marketing her book today, including through PodMatch!
