Is your mindset holding back your writing?

Writing a book is hard, but you can do hard things.
If you've wanted to write a book for a long time, but it always feels like something is getting in the way, it might be time to consider if that something is simply your mindset. One of the hardest things about writing a book is that you have to believe in the project for a really long time, without much in the way of external validation, in order to get it done. This means you have to believe, even before you start, that you are worthy and capable of writing the book. Because you are.
Today we go through ways to shift your mindset so you can get out of your own way and write that book.
Do you have a memoir you're wanting to write, but not sure how to get started? Or you've started a memoir but now you're stuck? We can help!
