So if you’re thinking, “Here we go… an episode about the book again,” hold up. This episode is actually about what happens when you do something you’ve never done before - and all the unexpected lessons that come with it.

Because sometimes, the biggest breakthroughs come after the big moment.

In this episode, I share the 10 things I didn’t expect from publishing The Shake Up - things that might surprise you, encourage you, and definitely give you a fresh perspective on doing anything new and big in your life.

Whether you:

• Want to write a book
• Have a half-written book tucked away
• Or never thought you’d write one at all

…this episode might be just the gentle shove you need to get started, keep going, or feel good about what you’ve done.

Here’s what you’ll hear:

• Why letting your achievement be a “massive moment” is important, even if it feels easy or natural
• The fear of “Is my book (or my work) actually any good?” and how to face it
• The incredible support from people who didn’t even know what the book was about - and why that matters
• The chaos and comedy behind hosting a non-book book launch
• How hosting a dry book launch led to a powerful mindset reframe about authenticity
• The struggle - and magic - of being present during your big moments
• The unexpected emotional punch of signing your own book
• Watching people read your words and actually soaking it up
• How your partner experiences the journey alongside you, sometimes even more deeply
• Why publishing a book (or doing something big) isn’t the finish line - it’s just the beginning

This episode is about courage, surprises, and celebrating your wins - no matter how big or small. It’s about owning your moment, embracing your journey, and realizing that the impact goes far beyond what you see on the surface.
