How to Write a Book with Phylis Mantelli | Episode 11
If you’re an expert in your field, you’ve likely thought about writing your own book or speaking at conferences and events. And if you haven’t ever considered doing this before, I’d encourage you to reflect on why. Take some time to think about what this might look like for you.
It’s a big part of personal branding — the act of sharing your knowledge and expertise with the world. Writing a book has always been a goal and aspiration of mine, and something that’s been on my mind a lot recently, so it leads to me to the topic of today’s episode with Phylis Mantelli.
Phylis is the author of the book “Unmothered” Life With a Mom Who Couldn’t Love Me, a story that walks readers through the journey of breaking generational dysfunction between mothers and daughters. She is also a coach specializing in speaking and writing. She loves to help women discover who they are in their personal testimony and branding.
