Episode Description from the Publisher

Welcome back to B is for Book Coach. I’m B, midwife of big ideas and book development partner for writers and non-writers alike. Today, we’re making space for seeing.There is power in sharing our perspective.There is power in being able to choose which perspectives we adopt as part of our own.And that power compounds when we share our perspective with an open hand, knowing that not everyone will choose it.That’s where Purple books come in—the Signature Perspective book type on the Clarity Spectrum—from an author who trusts their perspective enough to know that it’s worth sharing, and trusts the reader to decide whether or not they agree.- The gift and challenge of Purple books - Writing with an open hand- Facing the fear of rejection- Choosing validation vs impact- The assurance we have that no other authors before us could claimEnjoying this space?
