As a book coach, I hear about these writing troubles a lot. So glad you pushed past the fear and did it! Keep growing, keep writing, and keep sharing your ideas. I planted my own lemon tree back in 2013 with my blog to support my own books and blow me down, it led to a whole new career.
Thank you for sharing your journey, Matt! And thank you Veronica for writing such an impactful book. (I haven't finished it yet - I'm a slow reader but review WILL be forthcoming once complete π)
Accountability corner: I will review the book by Friday, August 16. π This will also serve as a reminder to me since I've never reviewed a book on Amazon before.
A great example of impact. Iβve read Lemon Tree and now want to re-read it to do the exercises suggested. Your piece has pushed me to get on with it!
I hope new writers or people thinking of getting started will feel encouraged and dive in. There's a supportive community here and once you get rolling, it's very rewarding!

Matt, I fully agree with you here. I was totally overwhelmed by all the conflicting background noise online about how to build my own personal brand and finally start to follow my dream and write.
Veronica's simple approach and her Lemon Tree Mindset also helped me distill down what really mattered to find my own North Star. Without this, I'm sure I would still be spinning my wheels and waiting for the perfect moment, with the perfect skill set.
Congratulations on finishing and publishing your first book.

Awesome, Chris!
Thank you and I hope it will give you some pointers for your own journey.
Please leave a review (I beg you, lol!)

That's so nice to hear, Trudi.
As we will have our session soon, we can discuss the implementation of the exercises too.
Cheers!

We both found a great coach and mentor.
Once again, thank you, Richard.
I'm so happy you found your North Star thanks to the Lemon Tree Mindset and now you are planting your own tree.
It's great to see what you are building and how your vision is coming to life with your Substack.
Wonderful!
It's a lovely story and the best testimony I could ask for π«Άπ»
