What If My Story Isn't Big Enough (Why that belief is keeping you stuck)

Episode Description:
Many aspiring memoir writers believe their story isn’t “big enough” to matter. In this episode, Kerry explores why that belief is the real obstacle—and how meaningful memoirs are built from everyday experiences, quiet transformations, and personal truth. If you’ve ever questioned whether your life is worth writing about, this conversation will help you reframe memoir, understand what readers actually connect with, and take the first step toward telling your story.

Key Takeaways:

• Memoir isn’t about fame, trauma, or spectacle—it’s about meaning
• Readers connect to recognition, not extremity
• Imposter syndrome affects even accomplished writers
• Everyday experiences hold powerful story potential
• Unwritten stories often show up as restlessness and self-doubt
• You don’t need permission or perfection to begin—just a clear starting point
