Whether or not they ever intend to write a book.In this episode we cover why I am writing this book and what I want it to do in the world, what the Hay House proposal process actually involves and why it matters, the five questions the proposal forced me to answer about my business that changed everything, the courage it took to press submit, and what this experience has to do with the work you are doing in your business right now.This is the episode for anyone who has something to say and keeps finding reasons not to say it.Links mentioned in this episode:Read the full article including the five clarifying questions: https://www.lucyshrimpton.com/podblogFind out more about e-School: https://www.lucyshrimpton.com/membershipFollow Lucy on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/iamlucyshrimptonGet the free AI Cheat Sheet: https://www.lucyshrimpton.com/ai-cheat-sheet","thumbnail_url":"https://img.transistorcdn.com/dhJO-d1Hg1YZKqvmxE2N7hTm0oJfUcsKDU-YgmHS--4/rs:fill:0:0:1/w:400/h:400/q:60/mb:500000/aHR0cHM6Ly9pbWct/dXBsb2FkLXByb2R1/Y3Rpb24udHJhbnNp/c3Rvci5mbS81MDM1/NTJlNWM3MWJmZmUz/MGI4NWJjOGFkNjNl/YmUxNC5qcGc.webp","thumbnail_width":300,"thumbnail_height":300}
