Three Things

❤️❤️❤️

Hello ♡,

First:

The book, the birth of so many thoughts you have read first, is finally here.

If you haven’t ordered it yet, and would like to, it is available everywhere books are sold. Support whichever sellers you would like to!

Second:

Thank YOU. Thank you for encouraging this work as it has resonated with you. Thank you for cheering on this book. I celebrate this book WITH you.

And thank you to those of you who pre-ordered, joined the launch team, or championed the roll out of this book in any way. I have been so moved by the loving generosity of those of you who wanted to share this book, or your thoughts about it, with the world. It is one thing to like a book, or writer, it is another thing entirely to help support their work. Thank you. From my heart to yours.

Third:

When I first started my podcast, many years ago now, I finally got the courage to ask listeners to leave a review if they liked it. This is how the creative world works. Reviews help work get passed around and seen. When I made this ask I felt so vulnerable I remember wanting to crawl behind the bushes in my front yard when I pressed post. Then an online friend messaged me how proud she was of me and how great this was to do, and my perspective shifted. She was right.

And here I am with another vulnerable ask. If this work, and this book, resonate with you, the best way to express that now is to write a review on Amazon and GoodReads. It doesn’t have to be fancy, or long, just true to you. And you can certainly copy and paste it, I always do with reviews I write. Thank you in advance. I am not going to crawl behind the bushes this time, promise, I am going to send you a virtual hug saying thank you.

I am going to catch my breath and exhale this weekend. I am most hopeful that readers will feel seen in some way, encouraged in some way, and helped along in some way by this book. I hope you are too.

With you,

Monica
