Are you waiting for the perfect moment to start your novel, launch your author brand, or finally share your writing? In this episode, I open up about my own struggles with perfectionism—including how I delayed starting this very podcast for over a year—and why I finally chose to hit record before I felt ready.

We’ll talk about the power of imperfect action, how failure is actually your First Attempt In Learning, and why creative success begins with showing up—messy, uncertain, and real.

Whether you're a first-time writer or a published author stuck in self-doubt, this episode will help you shift your mindset, take that next step, and stop waiting for permission.

You’ll learn:

• Why starting before you’re ready is often the smartest move

• How to take small, imperfect actions that build momentum

• How I turned one book into multiple income streams with translations, audiobooks, and more

• Encouraging examples and practical tips for writers at any stage

Remember: you don’t need to be perfect—you just need to begin.
