What's the best way to make a permanent and lasting difference in the lives of thousands, maybe even millions of people? WRITE A BOOK!

That's right. WRITE A BOOK!

Think about it. What brought you to coaching? What led you to the source of your own healing? I'm going to bet at least one book played a big role. For me that book was Marianne Williamson's A Return to Love. From Marianne I found Louise Hay, Wayne Dyer, Caroline Myss, Iyanla, Martha Beck, Brooke Castillo, Byron Katie, and so many others. I bet we have a lot of the same books on our shelves and I want YOUR book to be the next to enlighten me.

I find that most Life Coaches have a dozen or more book ideas floating around in their heads, but often they are more ideas than accomplishments. That's where I come in. I help coaches implement their brilliance so they can change the world with their words.

Stop for a minute and picture yourself standing by your mailbox and reaching in to pull out one of those nifty Amazon boxes. Knowing what's inside, your heart starts to race. As you tear open the package you can see the spine inside and there is your name. You hold your book in your hand—KNOWING what's inside has the potential to change thousands of lives and KNOWING in your bones that at least one person will crack this book open and his or her heart will crack open, too. It's a pretty awesome feeling! And it's just the beginning....

I've found the best place for many coaches to start is by writing a book that targets their ideal coaching prospect and actually gives away all of their best tools. In many ways it seems counterintuitive, but I've found the more you give away, the more clients you get. People end up paying to have you customize the tools specifically for them and to hold them accountable.

Writing a book not only helps you build your business and get more coaching clients, it also help you get
  • Increased credibility
  • Free publicity
  • More speaking engagements
  • Instant recognition as an expert
  • Differentiation from the competition
  • Higher rates and fees
In the past, I've only been able to work with successful coaches because they are the only ones who can afford my fees.  But I really LOVE working with new coaches as well, so I have come up with a way to help lots of coaches at once. I've designed a 4-week program that will help any Life Coach—no matter how new or inexperienced—grab his or her expert status as an author in just 30 days. 

It might sound crazy, I know, but it's actually possible to get well on your way to being a published author in just 30 days with my unique method! But it's not just about doing it quickly; this class is really about understanding the big picture of your book so you can write it with ease whether you do it in weeks, months, or even years.

In this class you will learn how to defeat the blank page by creating a book idea to reach your ideal client and then using tools to get organized and stay on track to complete your book.


What does completing a book mean to you? More credibility? A product to offer your clients? Self-satisfaction? A chance to really change the world and make your mark?  

My Books for Coaches program may be exactly what you need to complete your book.

In just 4 weeks, you will have all the your ducks in a row to write your book quickly. Depending on decisions you make from the choices we review, you may be able to claim your author status in as little as 4 weeks. We'll work together to help you find your voice. Develop your ideas. And get your book published so the world can see it. You never know, maybe one person—or maybe a million people—could be changed by your words. The world needs your inspiration. 
Dates: Program runs weekly starting June 3rd. Recordings will be made of all classes and questions will be addressed via email coaching.
