Here’s the truth: it’s not just about writing a book. It’s about breaking free from what’s been holding you back.

In today’s episode, we’re uncovering the real reasons why you keep delaying—mindset blocks, fear, distractions, and even address unforgiveness. Plus, I’m sharing practical steps to help you overcome these barriers and finally get started!

Isaiah 41:10 says, "Don’t panic. I’m with you. There’s no need to fear for I’m your God. I’ll give you strength. I’ll help you. I’ll hold you steady, keep a firm grip on you." —(MSG).
