Stop choosing sides in publishing! There's a game-changing approach that could elevate your book's impact.

In today's episode, I dive deep into a hybrid model that empowers authors to keep their voice while getting professional support. Traditional vs. self-publishing? It’s not about picking a side anymore. It’s about positioning your book to truly resonate with readers.

Most authors feel stuck between control and quality, but it doesn’t have to be this way. You can build something intentional, with the right people supporting you at every step. This is how authors are winning now—not just by writing well, but by positioning themselves effectively.

The challenge? Understanding that your book is more than just pages. It’s a stepping stone to your broader mission. What role will your book play in your life after it's published? 

Let’s rethink publishing together! 💪

Have you ever wondered if grief could ever give way to genuine laughter again? Or sensed the weight of sorrow so heavy it silenced even your brightest smile? In this episode, Dr. Jerry Woodbridge—widow, educator, and author—shares how she turned her own heartbreak into hope for countless children and families. Stay with us to discover the unexpected path from loss to joy… and why one little girl’s voice became the heartbeat of a healing story.

🎙️ About Dr. Jerry Woodbridge

 • Christian author & grief educator specializing in children’s grief support

 • Widow since 2004 who guided her own children—and hundreds more—through sorrow

 • Creator of Joy Overcame Sorrow (children’s book), Joy’s Journal (guide for grieving kids), and Trading My Sorrows for Joy

🔑 Key Takeaways

 1. From Ballroom Dancing to Books

 • How learning to dance six months after losing her husband opened the door to writing for grieving children.

 2. Faith at the Core

 • Why Jerry insists on including Scripture—because only the Holy Spirit can truly move sorrow into joy.

 3. Children Need Compassion, Not Quick Fixes

 • Grief is abstract; kids think in concrete terms. Journaling, memory “shrines,” and simple rituals guide them forward.

 4. Sympathy vs. Empathy

 • Cards and casseroles help… for a minute. Showing up months later, asking “How can I pray for you?” changes everything.

 5. A Voice That Resonates

 • How 4th-grader feedback not only fine-tuned the story but reminded Jerry that authentic children’s voices are the best editors.

 6. Churches & Communities

 • Practical steps for pastors, teachers, and neighbors to build ongoing support for widows, orphans, and grieving families.

Are you struggling to **improve writing** skills and maintain a **daily writing** schedule? This video offers practical **writing tips** to help you overcome **writer's block** and cultivate a lasting **habit**. Discover strategies to enhance your skills and stay inspired!

Have you felt stuck in your writing—like there’s a mountain between you and that finished manuscript? In this video, I pull back the curtain on the three things every aspiring author needs to conquer before they can hold their book in hand:

 • Belief: What inner story are you telling yourself? (Spoiler: your unspoken beliefs fuel your emotions, and your emotions drive your actions.)

 • Systems: How do you break a huge goal into bite-size tasks—complete with timelines, checklists, and weekly check-ins?

 • Guidance: Who’s pouring into you—whether it’s an editor, a coach, or a Facebook community—to keep you accountable and confident that you’re on the right path?

I share my own story of co-authoring a college statistics textbook (yes, really!) and how we went from serving the students in our classroom to serving thousands of readers around the globe. You’ll hear how we:

 1. Listed every single step (even the chapter openers we didn’t know we needed).

 2. Assigned responsibility and met every Wednesday—no excuses, plenty of grace.

 3. Built a team of editors, designers, and marketing pros who kept us honest and on schedule.

Ready to climb your mountain? Take today’s poll in our Facebook group and let me know:

 • Are you still figuring out how to start?

 • Is self-doubt making you rewrite the same paragraph forever?

 • Or do you need a map through the publishing maze—query letters, contracts, and all that?

🔔 Don’t miss an episode! Subscribe and hit the bell so you never wonder what’s holding you back again.

👍 If this spoke to you, give it a thumbs up and share in the comments where you’re stuck on the mountain.

See you at the summit! ❤️📖🙌
