  • Happy Publishing Podcast #108 "Three Insights to Clear Writer's Block"
    2025/11/05

    In this inspiring episode of The Happy Publishing Podcast, host Erica Glessing dives deep into one of the biggest struggles creative souls face — writer’s block. If you’ve ever felt that a story is trying to come through you but just won’t flow, this episode will help you open the channels and let creativity move freely again.

    Erica shares three powerful and practical ways to clear the energy around your writing so your ideas can finally take shape. First, she invites you to give yourself permission to write badly — to let go of perfectionism and allow your creative spirit to flow without judgment. Then, she reveals a surprisingly effective visualization technique: mocking up a book cover before your book is even written to bring the energy of completion closer to you. Finally, she offers her tried-and-true method for creating momentum — writing at the same time consistently, allowing divine guidance and inspiration to meet you at your desk.

    Whether you’re an author, coach, healer, or creative visionary, this episode will remind you that your words matter — and that the act of showing up is often all it takes to turn your ideas into finished work. Tune in, grab your journal or laptop, and get ready to release the blocks holding your writing hostage.

    ✨ “Give yourself permission to write badly — and you might just write something brilliant.” — Erica Glessing

  • Happy Publishing Podcast #107 "Is My Story Good Enough?"
    2025/11/04

    In this heartfelt episode of the Happy Publishing Podcast, CEO and publisher Erica Glessing dives into one of the most common questions authors ask before publishing: “Is my story good enough?”

    Erica explores the deep-rooted desire for validation that so many writers experience. Authors desire to know whether their book, message, or story is “worthy.” But instead of measuring by outside approval, Erica invites you to consider a different metric: alignment and truth.

    How true is your story to who you are? How aligned is your voice, your art, and your message with your authentic self? Drawing inspiration from artists like Prince, whose work was powerfully true to his essence, Erica reveals that truth resonates far louder than perfection ever could.

    In this episode, you’ll discover: ✨ Why “good enough” is the wrong question to ask when creating a book. ✨ How to connect to your story’s authenticity so it naturally shines. ✨ Ways to bring your voice to the page — even if you’re not sure how to start. ✨ How to use today’s tools (like recording and transcription) to turn inspiration into a beautiful, book-worthy manuscript. ✨ The secret behind choosing the right publisher for your unique message.

    Whether you’re a self-help author, animal communicator, healer, or heart-centered creative, this conversation reminds you that your story matters — not because it’s perfect, but because it’s true.

    Reach out to Happy Publishing if your book uplifts, inspires, or awakens consciousness — especially if it features animals, energy, or the magic of being a starseed. ✨ 📧 happypublishing@gmail.com

  • The Happy Publishing Podcast #106 "I Hate to Write!"
    2025/11/04

    Have you ever felt like writing just isn’t for you — maybe because someone once told you that you weren’t good enough? That your words didn’t measure up? In this deeply personal and inspiring episode of the Happy Publishing Podcast, bestselling author and publisher Erica Glessing explores how emotional scars from our past — especially from teachers or critics — can block our creative flow… and how to finally set your voice free.

    Erica shares her own eighth-grade story: a paper returned bleeding with red marks that shut down her confidence for years. Yet one compassionate teacher later changed everything — by giving her permission to write only beginnings. That single act of kindness unlocked her lifelong love of writing and opened the door to a career that would eventually birth Happy Publishing, a company that has now published hundreds of transformational authors.

    This episode isn’t just about healing your relationship with writing — it’s about reclaiming your power to communicate your message and make an impact. You’ll hear: ✨ How trauma or criticism from school can subconsciously block your creative expression. ✨ Why your message matters more than perfect grammar or structure. ✨ How books create lasting energy fields that reach readers exactly when they need your wisdom. ✨ The spiritual truth that messages often come through you, not from you — and your only job is to say yes.

    Erica also reminds aspiring authors that in today’s digital world, there are countless ways to share your light — through books, blogs, YouTube, TikTok, or family conversations. But books have a unique kind of permanence. They’re searchable, savable, and timeless — a treasure that readers can open again and again, always finding the perfect passage at the perfect moment.

    If you’ve ever whispered “maybe someday” about your book… this is your call to begin. Not perfectly — but beautifully, courageously, authentically.

  • The Happy Publishing Podcast #105 "Your Book Can Change the World"
    2025/11/04

    What if one book — just one story — could change a life forever?

    In this deeply moving and commercially inspiring episode of the Happy Publishing Podcast, host Erica Glessing shares two powerful stories that reveal the transformative and life-saving potential of writing and publishing your book.

    First, Erica opens up about a moment 14 years ago when reading a single chapter in a book gave her the courage to leave an emotionally abusive relationship. One morning’s reading changed her entire trajectory — from pain to peace, from fear to freedom. That experience became the foundation of her life’s mission: helping others bring their stories and messages to light through publishing.

    Then, Erica tells the inspiring story of how her own first book, Prospect When You Are Happy, ignited the creative flame in someone close to her — leading to a bestselling fiction series that might never have existed otherwise. That’s the ripple effect of courageously publishing your work: you not only heal yourself, you empower others to rise.

    Through heartfelt storytelling and actionable insight, Erica reminds us that:

    • Every book written from truth carries a vibration that can awaken, heal, and transform lives.
    • You don’t have to have it all figured out — the right path and publisher will appear when your book is ready to be born.
    • Publishing isn’t just a creative act; it’s a commercial catalyst that elevates your credibility, builds your brand, and attracts aligned opportunities.

    If your message keeps whispering to you — if a book idea keeps nudging your heart — this episode will move you to stop waiting for “someday” and start writing today. Because your book could be the spark that changes someone’s life… maybe even your own.

  • The Happy Publishing Podcast #104 "Listen to Your Book"
    2025/11/03

    In this quietly illuminating episode of the Happy Publishing Podcast, host Erica Glessing invites you into a soulful conversation about something most authors neglect to do—listen to their books. After publishing hundreds of authors since 2010, Erica has discovered one powerful truth: the writers who fall in love with their books—who treat their creations with joy, gratitude, and curiosity—are the ones whose books continue to thrive, sell, and change lives.

    Erica shares personal stories of emotional and energetic connection to her books, including Happiness Quotations and The Energy of Receiving. You’ll hear how she literally moved the energy of her book from inside her solar plexus to outside her body—and how that simple shift sparked an immediate rise in book sales.

    She also reveals how giving your book its own soul space—separate from your identity—can open up channels for intuition, inspiration, and even new marketing opportunities. One of her group books featuring a stellar cast of authors “asked” for a three-hour author marathon before launch… and the next day became a bestseller.

    Whether your book is already published, still in manuscript form, or just a seed of an idea waiting to emerge, this episode will help you understand how to build an energetic partnership with your creative work. By allowing your book to speak to you and guide you, you unlock the flow of abundance and joy that publishing was meant to bring.

    Tune in and discover how to: ✨ Detach your creative energy from your solar plexus to set your book free ✨ Transform your book from a project into a living, breathing consciousness ✨ Use energetic alignment to attract more readers and success ✨ Fall back in love with your work—so it keeps shining long after launch

    Connect with Erica Glessing and Happy Publishing at happypublishing@gmail.com to explore traditional or nontraditional paths to publishing your high-vibration book.

  • The Happy Publishing Podcast Episode 103 "The Power of Descriptions"
    2025/11/03

    In this episode of The Happy Publishing Podcast, host Erica Glessing takes a deep dive into one of the most overlooked — yet most powerful — tools in book marketing: metadata.

    If you’ve ever wondered why some books skyrocket in visibility while others sit hidden in the shadows, this is your inside look into the secret sauce. Erica reveals what she learned during a two-day intensive at Ingram, the largest book distributor in America, where she explored exactly how metadata drives discoverability and sales for authors and publishers alike.

    You’ll learn: ✨ What metadata actually is — and why most authors (and even some publishers) underestimate it. ✨ How to write book descriptions that act like magnets, drawing in readers who’ve never heard of you. ✨ The smart way to use ChatGPT to evolve your metadata with accuracy and flair. ✨ Why your keywords, hashtags, and bios are far more than filler — they’re your book’s digital fingerprints. ✨ How to optimize metadata for paperback, hardcover, and Kindle editions to maximize your visibility.

    Whether you’re an indie author or a small press publisher, Erica’s insights will help you turn your book metadata into a discovery engine that keeps working for you — long after you hit “publish.”

    💡 Tune in and discover how your words, when placed strategically in your book’s metadata, can become the magnetic force that brings new readers, new sales, and new opportunities your way.
