		<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">If you’re anything like me, you’ve daydreamed about writing a bestselling book.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">You imagine expanding your impact, getting your ideas into more hands, and maybe even spotting your name on a hardcover at your local bookstore. (Swoon.)</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">So… why haven’t we done it yet?</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">If you’re stuck, it’s probably because of one of these mindset blocks:</span><span style="font-weight: 400;"><br />

<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Sound familiar? Then you’re going to love this episode of </span><i><span style="font-weight: 400;">Deeply Rested</span></i><span style="font-weight: 400;"> with Dr. Cindy Childress, The Expert’s Ghostwriter®.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Cindy is a book coach for entrepreneurs who want to make money and an impact—and she’s refreshingly honest about what it </span><i><span style="font-weight: 400;">really</span></i><span style="font-weight: 400;"> takes to write a book without burning out.</span></p>

		<h3><span style="font-weight: 400;">In this episode, Cindy will share how to:</span></h3>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">✦ Avoid burnout with a systematic writing process</span><span style="font-weight: 400;"><br />
</span><span style="font-weight: 400;">✦ Get past perfectionism and write that messy first draft</span><span style="font-weight: 400;"><br />
</span><span style="font-weight: 400;">✦ Choose the right genre to keep imposter syndrome at bay</span><span style="font-weight: 400;"><br />
</span><span style="font-weight: 400;">✦ Simplify the publishing process so your book actually gets into readers’ hands</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">We also dig into how much money authors actually make—and brainstorm tons of creative ways you can </span><i><span style="font-weight: 400;">leverage</span></i><span style="font-weight: 400;"> your book to grow your business and visibility.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">If writing a book is on your heart, this is the pep talk (and practical advice) you need.</span></p>
