In this final episode of Season 3, I’m taking you behind the scenes for a little business declutter – Marie Kondo style.

This solo episode is part honest reflection, part permission slip. Because after a brilliant season of conversations with authors, creatives and publishing pros, I’ve found myself craving more space, more simplicity… and fewer ‘shoulds’.

So I’m tidying up. That includes how I work, how I show up—and yes, even how I podcast.

Have you ever wondered what really happens after you publish your book, and how to keep the momentum going long after launch day?

In this episode, I’m delighted to welcome Sara Dalrymple BACK to the podcast. We cover so much great stuff about selling your book beyond the launch and how to make it sustainable in the long term. Nuggets of wisdom, as you would expect from Sara.

So, if you’ve ever wondered how to keep your book visible – and how to let it keep working for you – this conversation will leave you feeling inspired, encouraged, and ready to take the long view.

When life falls apart, where do you begin putting yourself back together?

In this episode, I chat to Dr Laura Williams. Laura is a clinical psychologist, private therapist, trauma specialist, online course creator, and the author of ‘What To Do When You Feel Broken’, published by Hay House. She is also a widow and mum, who had to put all her psychological expertise into practice when faced with the sudden death of her much-loved husband.

Have you ever wondered what really goes on behind the scenes of a major indie publishing event — and what non-fiction writers can learn from the world of fiction authors?

In this episode, I’m sharing my top takeaways from the Self-Publishing Show Live in London. While the event is primarily aimed at fiction authors, I came away with so many ideas and insights that are just as valuable if you’re writing a business book or self-help title, especially around marketing, mindset, and staying connected to your readers.

Have you ever felt like you’re running on empty, but still trying to write, create, and keep all the plates spinning?

In this episode, I chat with the brilliant Hazel Anderson Turner — psychologist, coach, and author of Coaching Through Burnout. Hazel brings a grounded, compassionate voice to a topic that so many of us quietly carry: burnout. Especially the kind that creeps in when we care deeply about our work, our people and our purpose.

You know the feeling. You’ve got a book inside you (maybe five), a business to run, and a to-do list that’s breeding overnight. But still, you want to write it. You want to finish it. You want to be that woman. The one who actually did it.

This episode is a love letter (and a bit of a kick up the bum) to that version of you. I’m sharing the 10 traits that I’ve noticed in the women I work with who actually finish their books. 

This episode is a little different. And a little brilliant (if I do say so myself).

Because for Episode 100, I’m flipping the mic — and being interviewed by someone who knows me almost better than I know myself!

That someone is the utterly brilliant Kay Ribeiro — journalist, editor, scriptwriter, BAFTA judge and all-round creative powerhouse — and also one of my oldest (and dearest) friends. She was given free rein over the questions, and what unfolded was a rather marvellous conversation.

Writing a book is a long game. There will be highs, lows, and a few “why did I even start this?” days.

But if you want to actually finish the thing (and enjoy the process a little more), there’s one thing that makes all the difference: your energy.

In this episode, I’m talking about the power of being obsessed with your book — not in a tattoo-the-title-on-your-arm kind of way — but in a grounded, focused, I actually want to write this kind of way.

If you’ve built the business, served the clients, shared your expertise on every platform going — but now you’re craving more space, more depth, more meaning — it might not be a crisis.

It might be your Author Era calling. 

In this episode, I’m diving into why so many experienced, midlife female founders are feeling this exact shift — and why writing a book might be the most aligned next step you haven’t said out loud yet.
