Once you reach your goals in life, then what do you do? What’s next? This question is what inspired Bruce Turkel to pivot from running a successful ad agency for decades to selling it and becoming a public speaker.

As a public speaker, he has found ways to use all of his talents of drawing, design, and what he learned running the ad agency.

Writing a book isn’t one of those things that you should wait for. You shouldn’t put it off until a future “someday” because writing a book can really change your life today. You might have started with planning and plotting your idea but then didn’t feel it was good enough or you aren’t ready to write. But the truth is no one is ever ready to write a book. You just have to make the choice and commitment to do it.
On this week’s episode of “Authors Who Lead,” I talk about why now is the right time to start writing the book that’s been on your heart and ways you can finally do it successfully.

In this time of hustle, sometimes it takes certain events to show us that we need to slow down and focus on what is really important. In Teresa McCloy’s life, it was her son’s drug addiction and death and her own workaholic addiction that forced her to reevaluate her life and how she was living it. She now intentionally lives a deeper and more meaningful life, slowing down and learning new behaviors.
In this episode of “Authors Who Lead,” I talk with Teresa about the inspiration and desire to change her life and her journey writing her book, “Do What Matters: Live from Rest, Not Rush, Using the REALIFE Process.”

Writing a Book Is Harder Than You Think, but Easier If You Have a Team with Jadah Sellner Oct 14, 2022

Jadah Sellner, along with a co-founder, took the business “Simple Green Smoothies” to six- and seven-figure success. But although their work was built on love, fun, creativity, and connection, they gradually lost sight of why they built their business and were soon overly focused on metrics. This all came at a high cost to their relationships, health, and families.
It took Jadah selling her half of the company in order to heal, redefine her ambition, and decide where she was willing to put her energy. Taking this step back helped her find a different way to build a business, which is where the inspiration for her book, She Builds, came from.
In this episode of “Authors Who Lead,” I talk with Jadah about her journey in writing her book, She Builds: The Anti-Hustle Guide to Grow Your Business and Nourish Your Life. If you haven’t listened to our prior conversations about Jadah’s book and her entrepreneurial journey, you can listen here on Episode 47, Episode 138, and Episode 182.

Chris Benetti has been in the marketing industry for over six years but has recently narrowed his focus to helping authors market and sell their books.
He found that plenty of people helped authors write and launch their books, but no one offered a service to do the “boring stuff” to help sell books. He positioned himself in the market to help business and nonfiction authors with sales funnels and conversions.
In this episode of “Authors Who Lead,” I talk with Chris Benetti about sales funnels, free plus shipping, and other ways authors can market their books.
