Why Writing Your Book is Your Ultimate Power Move in 2026

Why Writing Your Book is Your Ultimate Power Move in 2026

In this episode, I'm joined by my good friend Amanda Frances for a real, unfiltered conversation about what it actually looks like to become an author today—and why self-publishing is no longer the "alternative"… it's the power move.

Between the two of us, we've sold hundreds of thousands of books, built global audiences, and turned our writing into real businesses. And at one point, we both had the same realization:

We don't need permission.

In this episode, we're pulling back the curtain on the publishing industry, breaking down the myths, and showing you what's actually possible when you decide to do it your way.

If you've been thinking about writing a book, sitting on an idea, or waiting to be chosen...this is your sign.

In this episode, we talk about:
  • The biggest myths about traditional publishing
  • What book deals really look like behind the scenes
  • Why self-publishing gives you more control, ownership, and income
  • How to turn your book into a long-term asset (not just a one-time project)
  • The identity shift required to become a visible, paid author
  • What to do if you want to start writing your book now
This episode is for you if:
  • You have a book idea you haven't acted on
  • You've been waiting for a publisher, agent, or "right time"
  • You want to build a brand, business, or platform through your writing
  • You're ready to stop playing small and actually put your work into the world
Ready to become a self-published author?

If this episode spoke to you, Self-Published was created for exactly this moment.

Inside, you'll learn how to write, publish, and sell your book—on your terms.
