During today’s episode, we sit down and get to hear some incredible tips and lessons from a best selling author, Allison Fallon. Ally is also a sought after public speaker, and nationally recognized writing coach. She has coached hundreds or perhaps even thousands of writers - from NYT Bestselling authors to total beginners to help them finally get their books written and on shelves. I found Ally thanks to a recommendation from my friend, Bob Goff. “Rob, it sounds like you are now ready to talk to Ally.” So, sure enough, I reached out and my writing journey really took off to the next level after signing up for her Prepare to publish program. In today episode we will dive into the power of writing down your own story, the health benefits, as well as dealing with imposter syndrome which it turns out plagues even the best authors. If you have ever thought about writing down your own story, I highly recommend you listen to this amazing interview with Ally Fallon.
I hope you feel as empowered as I do after hearing this conversation. Ally takes all the excuses away from us to not get started on writing down parts of our own story. If for no one else but yourself. I started a regular journaling practice at age 15, and then it became much more regular after a skiing accident caused a serious concussion that I feared would destroy my memory forever. I have since taken those hundreds of journal entries and used them as the bedrock for writing my own memoir. Which, one day, will make it to the public. Currently, I am enjoying the process and learning so much about myself.
