The things you’ve tried that haven’t worked:

It’s not your fault.

You simply haven’t come across the solution that offers a proven methodology and process to navigate through the complexities of your life and mind, enabling you to uncover the story that propels both you and your business forward.

Introducing a new paradigm for book coaching:

My holistic approach considers your entire vision for your work and the realities of your life to craft a customized path forward that empowers you to achieve your creative and professional objectives.

The Methodology

The solution to the problem is…

I look at the whole life of the writer, not just what is on the page, and together we curate a path forward to meet creative goals from a holistic perspective. My goal is to empower you with practical tools to connect with the story within and share it in the world, while keeping your creative process at the center of your experience.

Phase 1

Awaken Your Voice

Discovering your voice on the page is the most important place to start, especially for new writers. Here we outline what you want to say and how you will say it through a blend of creative prompts and mindfulness-based practices.

Phase 2

Your Book as a Start Up

Master the business of being a writer. Explore the marketplace and literary landscape, and craft your book’s structure based on what readers and publishers are looking for.

Phase 3

Write with Accountability & Support

Write! Embark on your writing journey with supportive custom prompts, developmental edits, accountability, bi-weekly meetings, and review and bring your book to life.

Phase 4

Design Your Publishing Path

Whether you have a traditional book deal or you want to explore hybrid publishing or self-publish, I will demystify the publishing process, serving as your advocate and guide. With decades of publishing experience, we find the right home for your book.

Phase 5

Publish & Promote Your Book

This is more than just the book launch. Here we will design your optimal publicity path (social media, events, and more) and ensure your business or organization and thought leadership is set up to reap the rewards of your book for years to come.

What clients are saying...

“Throughout the evolution of my book idea, to proposal, to book deal, to manuscript, Lisa has been an invaluable guide and coach. This book is more than just that; it's my message and my life's work. Lisa saw the power of my message and helped bring it to life. As both a business owner and a first-time writer, I needed practical guidance, narrative support, and moral support, of which I found all in Lisa. She's strategic and soulful and my book is by far in better shape because it's touched Lisa's capable mind and hands. I highly recommend working with Lisa to bring your book to life!.”

“Lisa is a powerful yet gentle word doula - she helped me birth my stories and give a voice to my truth. I am indebted to her and her magical abilities to make a writer out of all of us.”

“Lisa’s genius is her multifaceted approach to representing the voice and work of her authors and artists. She not only sees where you are, she sees where you could go, and how you could benefit many other people in the process. Most importantly, she sees who you are, which is the key to any relationship like this. Working with her has been a dream and an honor.”

“When I started working with Lisa I had confidence in my idea, faith in my capacity to write a book, but no idea how to take on such an undertaking. Lisa guided me through the process, helped me navigate a new-to-me industry, and gave me tools that helped me become a better writer! She is a gifted coach who empowers writers to pursue and achieve their writing goals and makes space for them to dream even bigger and keep going.”
