On today’s episode I speak to Talonya Geary, author of #goDo: How to Live on Purpose.
In this episode we discuss:
Be your authentic self no matter the circumstances, and it will help resonate with readers. Knowing who you are, and not continuing down a path that doesn’t feel right for you. It’s so much easier to write in your own voice, rather than someone else’s voice. Use social media or blogs to get feedback and test out your voice. If you lose yourself in the process, it is ok to stop and find yourself again, to become a more authentic version of yourself. Be ok with being in the position of being a seeker of new knowledge, as long as it takes for you to be ready to apprentice that new knowledge. When you are done apprenticing, and it’s time to create new art, you’ve apprenticed enough and you can now go on and create art on your own. Go do that. When you have done that enough, and you can now share that with others, go and mentor them, go share your mastery.Enjoy the episode!
