  • Ep. 10 - Dr. Maggie Gilewicz and HOW TO MAKE SURE YOUR LIFE DOESN'T SUCK
    Aug 25 2022
    Questions We Asked
    Let’s talk about your background. Tell us about your journey toward obtaining your doctorate and your practice in sociology.
    You are also transformative coach which, Im sure, spawned the content for you book as How to Make Sure Your Life Doesn’t Suck, can you give us a glimpse into the practice of personal transformation as a profession, and how translating it into a book has gone for you?
    So, 2020 has been quite the black hole for many people worldwide. Emotions have been ran through the wringer so to speak and people’s self esteems are low. We’re tired, we’re stressed. We’re seeking human connection in a world that won’t let us leave our houses for anything but groceries and emergencies. How can we learn to thrive on a personal level during this time? How can we re-design our lives to maximize our happiness?
    Ok, let’s backtrack a bit and return to your book How to Make Sure Your Life Doesn’t Suck. You released in in January of this year and since then how have you been monitoring its success?
    It currently has 62 starred reviews on Amazon. What methods have you gone through to make sure your readers are willing and able to post so many reviews?
    Many people see social media as a negative influence in their lives. If we were to poll my listeners (and the world in general) and ask them “Have you ever felt that online life is a source for negativity in your progress be it spiritual, emotional, professional, academic, etc,” I’d be willing to be a high percentage would answer that our digital habit don’t produce the happiness we hope they would. You, however, seem to go against that current- your online life seems really quite jovial and happy. What advice do you have for those of us who are leery about using screens and social media to feed our hunger for happiness?

    Questions We Asked
    You’re a mom of many and you homeschool your kiddos which I think is awesome. Here’s what I find even more amazing: you actually have time to write! How is that humanly possible? And while you’re answering that question, please share a little bit about you work through 10 Minute Novelists.
    Did you find that, when your children were really young, that you had to do something else with your creative side during those elusive free moments when you could let your mind wonder?
    Approximately how many words can you have written in 10 minutes (on average)?
    What advice do you have for the grammar perfectionist who can’t fathom even the idea of “word vomiting?”
    Aside from finding 10 minutes to write here and there, are there other methods that you use to get your word count throughout the day?
    What advice do you have to the writer who has the time to both write their stories and build their platforms?
    How many books have you written and published since you began taking you writing career seriously?
    Having both self-published and traditionally published your books, do you have a preference?
    If you were to give writing advice to the mother with a newborn, a mother with kiddos in elementary/middle school, and a parent with high school/ college aged kids, how would your advice differ for each of them?
    Do you find that you have passed your writing gene to your children?
    How does your family support your writing dreams?

  • Ep. 8 - Shayla Raquel and AUTHOR BRANDING
    Aug 25 2022
    Questions We Asked
    Do you find it difficult to triple brand yourself as a writing coach, a writer a non-fiction, and an author of fiction?
    Having come from a fairly successful marketing practice that had its start in the early 2010s, I was thrilled to pick up your book, THE TEN COMMANDMENTS OF AUTHOR BRANDING, last year around this time. But I'm not going to lie, it shook me. It forced me to pivot my platform building and break free from the old ways of doing things. What are some of the newest ways to brand yourself as an author now as opposed to 10 years ago?
    You've recently stepped away from Facebook to focus on other marketing platforms that work better for you. Mind telling us why the blue F got the drop?
    Which platforms are you seeing authors succeed most on in today’s social media de jour.
    What advice do you have for the writer who claims that they are not entrepreneurs and they they wish they could just do away with the marketing process.
    Did you self publish your fictional book THE SUICIDE TREE?
    Your site ShaylaRaquel.com is a plethora of resources and advice for writers, can you point us to the ones that will give your tribe the biggest bang for their site view buck?
    What is next for Shayla Raquel? Are you planning to create multiple versions of the 10 commandments as the industry shifts? Are you writing more fiction? Are you coaching the next NYT best-selling author?
