Denise on the Kind of a Big Book Deal Podcast
In this episode of the Kind of a Big Book Deal Podcast , I shared the real story behind going from messy first draft to bestselling author – including how I self-published Lucky Bitch and eventually landed a traditional deal with Hay House.
I opened up about imposter syndrome, the lessons I learned from early success, and why writing a book is more about creating momentum than being perfect from the start.
What we covered:
- How I turned a self-published ebook into a traditional book deal
- The mindset wobbles that come up when you're writing your first book
- Why a book should support your business, not be your business
- How publishing fits into your marketing funnel
- The importance of mentorship, support, and outsourcing
- Letting go of perfection and just starting with your messy draft
If you’ve ever wondered, "Who am I to write a book?" this episode is here to remind you: you’re allowed.
