Book Doula & Writing COACH
Before you can live your own story, you first have to write it.Your words deserve to live. Your Writing will change lives.
But first, you have to be brave enough to get your story down.
You have a story that won’t let you rest.
A book that whispers to you in the dark.
Words that ache to become something real.
But no matter how many notebooks you fill or how many times you promise this is the year you . . .
-
- Write your book
- Write your stories down
- Get serious about writing
- Start your writing career
All of it—your manuscript, your writing life, wores—still feels out of reach.
No more worries or what if’s friends! i got you! 🤗
i’m here to help you start, finish, edit, polish, dream big, and share the work your soul came here to write.
Together, we’ll transform your ideas into a book you’re proud to hold and to sell.
And the writing life and career you’ve always dreamed of.
✨ My Approach
Writing is part craft, part magick.
i blend both.
As your book doula & writing coach, i guide you to:
✅ Get clear on your big why so you never lose your fire
✅ Build sustainable, inspired writing habits
✅ Organize your ideas into a powerful structure
✅ Break through resistance, perfectionism, and fear
✅ Shape your manuscript into something publishable and true
This ain’t your typical book coaching program, and i am not your average book coach. 👀
i am for—and my approach is—for folxs who won’t settle for writing and a book anything less than extraordinary, expressive, poetic, and impactful.
If all this feels and sounds like the mentorship and guidance you need, apply to work with me 1:1 here or click the button below.
i’m excited to see what we can conjure up together 🧙🏽♀️.

Ready to finally bring your book dream to life, but not sure where to begin?
Whether you’re overwhelmed by the publishing process, torn between book ideas, wondering what to include, how to pitch to agents, or even what a book proposal is (hello, “WTF is she talking about?!”), you are not alone.
And more importantly… i’ve got you.
i’m a hybrid published author of 8 books (and counting!), with over TWO DECADES of experience in writing, publishing, and journalism. i’ve pitched to agents, self-published with success, and walked every crooked mile of the creative path.
i’m here to hold your vision. To guide your spirit, soul, and voice as you write the book you were born to share—the one that will change your life and touch others.
If you’re ready to stop circling your book and finally start writing it—clearly, confidently, and with support every step of the way—you’re in the right place.
What Is Book & Writing Coaching?
GOAL SETTING & STRATEGIC PLANNING
i help you clarify your writing, book, and publishing goals and customize a strategic plan for your writing journey and book launch.
WRITING GUIDANCE
i provide feedback on your writing style, tone, and voice, to help you improve your sentence structure and storytelling techniques.
EDITING, FEEDBACK, & REVISIONS
i provide basic editing, proofreading, and constructive feedback on drafts to help revise and refine your work to make it the most magical, transformational, and marketable book it can be.
CONFIDENCE & ACCOUNTABLITY
And other energies that money alone can’t buy. Like time management, emotional support and encouragement, pep talks (and tapping + other tools) to help you overcome self-doubt and writer’s block—all while keeping you writing and meeting your deadlines.
How Do I know If Coaching is Right For Me?
i’m a firm believer in “you already know.” Chances are, if you’re on this page, you are aware of the transformation a book + writing coach can offer you.
The list to the right is here to support and/or solidify what you already know. 🙏🏽
You're stuck. Feeling stuck. Or in a state of inertia.
If you’re feeling stuck, experiencing writer’s block, or unsure how to proceed with your project, a book coach can provide strategies and solutions—along with tools for your toolbox—to help you regain your momentum.
i support all my authors with both practical and spiritual tools to help them get (and stay) unstuck!
You have zero book writing experience—or lack the confidence in what you DO know.
Take a moment to reflect on your writing experience and skills. If you’re a novice or lack confidence in your writing abilities or your ability to actually finish your book, a book coach can offer guidance, feedback, encouragement, and lend their writing expertise to your project.
All my book coaching packages come with books and tools to help harness—and maintain—your courage throughout the entire book process. From start to finish to published to marketing. i’ve got your back!
You are ready—and have the budget—to invest.
First and foremost, consider your financial resources. Hiring a book coach is an investment in your writing and your Wild Dream of publishing a book, so determine if your dream fits within your budget.
My goal is to always be able to meet Wild Dream Book Writers where they are financially. This is why i offer 3 different book coaching packages.
You've started & stopped your book so many times . . .
. . .that, if had finished your book all those years ago, you would now have a bookshelf of books out right now instead of none! A book coach can help you go the distance, manage your time, and keep you motivated to finish the damn thing!
i’ve finished and published over 8 books (not including all the journals!) and i will share with you EVERYTHING i know!
You are tired of playing small & watching other folxs live their dreams.
And you’re beyond ready to start living your own. A book coach can help you get out of your head and onto the page and help you close the gap between where you are and where you want to be #publishedauthor.
You got this. i believe you. And i’m ready to help you LIVE your Wild Book Dreams!
