Want to build unshakable confidence as a new author?

Here’s how.

Most advice is stale and overused. You need something different to overcome imposter syndrome and build the confidence you need to tell your story.

Let’s dive in.

Record a Voice Note About Your Day

You might think journaling is the only way to reflect on your day, but there’s a better way.

Recording a voice note forces you to verbalize your thoughts, which helps build self-awareness and confidence. Imagine finishing a hectic day and just speaking your mind. You’ll process your experiences more authentically, generating raw material for your writing.

Here’s what to do next: Grab your phone and record a 5-minute voice note every evening. Talk about what happened, how you felt, and any ideas that came to you. This habit makes your thoughts tangible and keeps them from swirling aimlessly in your head.

It’s like having a conversation with yourself, where you can be brutally honest and introspective.

Create a Vision…
