Paul Flint found he could only help 30-35 kids per year through his science tutoring, and he was frustrated he couldn't make a bigger impact with the thousands he couldn't reach. So he decided to write a book! In our latest Author's Journey spotlight you can hear Paul's journey to writing The Exam Slayer and the highs and lows of his author's journey. This book is written for kids who need help with passing exams and revision skills that don't get taught in schools!

Chip Jacobs is a bestselling author and journalist. His latest book is the Kafka-esque, true-crime caper The Darkest Glare: A True Story of Murder, Blackmail and Real Estate Greed in 1979 Los Angeles, which Kirkus Review praised as “engrossingly bizarre” and “entertaining.” Jacobs’ previous book was his debut novel, Arroyo, historical fiction set around construction of Pasadena’s mysterious Colorado Street Bridge in 1913. It was a Los Angeles Times bestseller, a CrimeReads most anticipated book, and a medalist at the Independent Publishers Book Awards. Before them were the biography Strange As It Seems: the Impossible Life of Gordon Zahler (an Indies Book of the Year finalist) and the environmental social histories The People’s Republic of Chemicals and the international bestselling Smogtown: the Lung-Burning History of Pollution in Los Angeles (the latter two with William J. Kelly). He has also contributed pieces to anthologies, among them the bestselling Los Angeles in the 1970s: Weird Scenes Inside the Goldmine and Go Further: More Literary Appreciation of Power Pop. His prize-winning reporting has appeared in the Los Angeles Times, L.A. Daily News, CNN, The New York Times, Bloomberg, L.A Weekly, among others.

Entrepreneurs Writing Books - Getting Real About Your Goals and Expectations

Aww yes, finally, radiant summer has arrived! Doesn't mean life is dandy and perfect but it can be when life finally starts to feel like it’s catching up with the seeds planted long ago. I share the story of saying yes to love again.


As hinted in the last episode, Spring, I share more about reconnecting with my ex in 2022 and how it's unfolded into a life we now share together. From moving in to getting engaged just 10 days after my second book release, Thank You for Dumping Me, in summer 2024...and YES it's about OUR breakup. This Summer season for me was packed with magic, momentum, and took a whole lot of trust.


You'll also hear about:
- Writing my book 'Thank You for Dumping Me' in real time…while being back with the man whose breakup planted the seed for it in the first place
- The parallels and plot twists between my first book and what really happened
- Why summer is about celebrating the bloom and honoring the messy path it took to get here


Whether you're basking in your own season of bloom or still waiting for the sun to break through, this episode is a reminder that growth is always happening. Often in ways we can't yet see.

--
In this 4-part mini-series we will dive into how nature’s seasons mirror our own personal growth. 


Just like nature, we all experience seasons in life. Some quiet, some turbulent, but all with purpose. When we open ourselves to explore them, we uncover lessons that shape who we are. Join me as I dive into a journey of transformation, resilience, and the powerful wisdom nature has to offer.


At the end of each episode, I share a self-discovery prompt from my second book, *Thank You for Dumping Me*.

------------------

Thank You for Dumping Me is a book about a blindsided breakup turned personal growth opportunity, learning to love yourself after heartache, and the challenging transitions that help us get to know ourselves more deeply. It’s raw and real, with witty humor and a lot of heart! Readers have described Thank You for Dumping Me as a genre of its own—memoir-meets-novel—and a book they “couldn’t put down,” a “real page-turner.”


I am on a mission to rebrand breakups from something to be feared, dreaded, and full of sorrow to opportunities for growth, self-discovery, and life course redirects.

Karen Williams works with business experts – coaches, therapists and consultants – who want to stand out from the crowd and write a non-fiction book that helps them to grow their business.

Career Coaching with Jessness isn’t just about your career. It’s about the seasons of life, work, creativity, and purpose. Our career isn’t only what pays the bills. It’s the larger story of growth and personal evolution. It can reflect our side hustles, passion projects, and the many roles we play: mentor, creator, parent, partner, friend, volunteer, dreamer. All of which shape who we are. I truly believe our career is a mirror. What shows up there is often a manifesto of how we approach life, who we are, why we do what we do, and what makes us feel alive and fulfilled.

Entrepreneurs: this is what your Chief Marketing Officer would tell you ... if you had one! We share the experience gained over 30 years of marketing for Fortune 500 companies and multi-billion-dollar organization PLUS working with nonprofits and startups with limited or no budget.  I bring the real, no-BS marketing strategies from the corporate guys with deep pockets and big budgets and provide insights for SMBs who don't usually have access to that level of expertise.
