Most people think writing a book means sitting alone for months, struggling with words, doubting their ability, and hoping something good comes out the other side.
That belief is wrong, and it’s costing founders credibility, confidence, and revenue.
In this episode of Tenacity with Sonia C., Sonia sits down with Ben Cena, founder of High Value Author, to break down why publishing a book is not about being a writer, it’s about being strategic.
This is a conversation for founders, consultants, and leaders who want to build authority, attract better clients, and turn their expertise into leverage, without burning years trying to “write.”
Ben explains:
-Why every leader already knows a book, even if English isn’t their first language
-The difference between being a writer and being an author, and why that distinction matters
-How most leaders sabotage their books by skipping strategy and alignment
-Why books are solutions to problems, not creative projects
-The biggest mistakes leaders make when self-publishing
-How a book can increase conversions, credibility, and confidence
-When publishing a book actually makes sense, and when it doesn’t
-Why execution matters more than ideas in a market with millions of books
Sonia brings the conversation back to what leaders really care about:
-clarity, momentum, confidence, and progress.
If you’re building a personal brand, consulting business, or leadership platform, and you’ve been told “you need a book” but don’t know where to start, this episode gives you the logic, structure, and mindset shift to decide your next move.
This isn’t about becoming an author for ego. It’s about using a book as a tool for growth, credibility, and resilience.
