The Author's Journey Podcast

Description: On The Author’s Journey we have candid conversations with best-selling authors discussing the journey of becoming a best-selling author, what it has and hasn't done for them in their career, tips to upcoming authors and even excerpts of book readings by each author. Learn how to leverage your message, information, resources, and gifts to the world.

“Wait, What

Do You Do Again?” – Getting Clear on Your Business Message

You know that moment you are at a networking event, someone asks what you do, and halfway through your answer, their eyes glaze over. Ouch. If you have ever stumbled through explaining your business, you are not alone. Most entrepreneurs, even brilliant ones, struggle to clearly articulate what they actually do. And that confusion? It is costing you opportunities.

In this article, we will explore why clarity is power, how to find your niche, and how to confidently speak your business into existence. Whether you are launching a product, running a service-based business, or pivoting into something new, the ability to clearly state what you do is not just helpful, it is essential.

Three key insights:

1. Clarity Builds Confidence

2. Nailing Your Niche Is a Game-Changer

3. Your Message Must Be as Clear as Your Purpose

1. Clarity Builds Confidence

When you know exactly what you offer and who it is for, everything changes. You show up differently in conversations, pitches, and marketing. Instead of secondguessing yourself, you speak with certainty and people notice. Early in my consulting journey, I used to say things like, “Well, I do energy work and business strategy and mindset coaching… it is kind of a mix.” People would politely nod and quickly move on. I realized I was confusing them because I had not clarified it for myself. Once I committed to saying, “I help people, businesses, and organizations get unstuck whether it is mindset, team, or strategy so they can grow with flow,” everything shifted. I got more yeses, more referrals, and felt more confident.

2. Nailing Your Niche Is a Game-Changer

Many business owners try to serve everyone and end up resonating with no one. The more specific you are, the more magnetic you become.

Ask yourself: Who do you love to serve? What problem are they facing? What transformation do you help them achieve?

Instead of saying, “I am a life coach,” imagine saying: “I help new entrepreneur moms create structure and balance, so they can grow their business without burning out or missing the moments that matter most at home.” That is clear, emotionally compelling, and paints a vivid picture. And do not worry niching does not limit you. It leads with the message that opens doors. Once people understand your core, you can always expand.

3. Your Message Must Be as Clear as Your Purpose

Clarity in your purpose fuels clarity in your message. When you understand why you do what you do beyond just earning a living your words carry more power and authenticity.

Ask yourself: Why do I feel called to this work? Why does my audience need what I offer on a deeper level? Why does it matter that I am the one doing it? When your message connects to your deeper why, people feel it. And that emotional resonance is what turns listeners into clients, customers, and advocates.

A great message is short, memorable, and repeatable. If someone wanted to refer you, could they explain what you do in one sentence? If not, time to tighten up.

Michael, a wellness coach who used to say, “I help people feel better in their bodies.” It was vague, and his audience did not connect. But when he tapped into why he cared growing up watching his father suffer from chronic illness his message transformed.

Now he says: “I help busy professionals reverse burnout through movement and breathwork, so they do not end up like my dad—exhausted and living in pain.” That clarity shifted his business.

Wrapping It All Up We started with a common challenge struggling to clearly explain your work. We explored: getting clear on your value, identifying your niche to stand out, and anchoring your message so others can understand and hire you.

This is not just about marketing. When your words match your mission, you become magnetic.

So next time someone asks, “What do you do?” smile, take a breath, and answer with clarity and confidence, because clarity is not just confidence, it is your magnet, and your megaphone.

Tim Van Mieghem, Bestselling Author, Founding Partner, The ProAction Group

Let us welcome Tim Van Mieghem, CEO of the consultancy, ProAction Group, and author of the best-selling book, Shocking Profit.

His mission is to help businesses find Shocking Profit, helping companies find

$10’s of millions that they didn’t realize they already had. They help North American middle market companies (20M-200M) compete and thrive in a global environment.

As part of their objective, they:

• Help change the lives of stakeholders for the better, with the philosophy that everyone matters, and they have much to share.

• Help clients with risk mitigation, avoiding surprises and through disciplined operational diligence.

• Help clients transform into entrepreneurial teams that scale and develop leaders.

• Help clients win good deals with eyes wide open, using accurate, practical models, alongside a relevant and actionable value creation plan.

- Share with us the title of your Book: Shocking Profit - Cash in on Your Company’s Hidden Value, Grow Leaders, and Spark a Transformation That Changes Everything

- Describe something our readers today can look forward to discovering in your book.

Real life examples of small changes that make a huge difference. That produce Shocking Profit.

- What are 1-3 tips you can give our reader to help them step forward in their life powerfully?

➡ Get Curious. Ask: Why are we doing it this way? How do we make money? Where are the bottlenecks? What tasks are we doing that could be done by someone for free? Am I paying too much?

➡ Get People on Board

➡ Get Others to Do It

- Share something you are passionate about: I am passionate about finding the hidden value in the business and in the people.

- What are some ways you are helping to bring this forward in the world? I wrote a book. �� We live this every day. Companies hire us to impact their profits. What they remember is the way we impact their people.

- What tip or piece of advice can you share with our reader today to empower them to SHINE?

Go to where the work is being done. Watch. Be present. Talk to people. You will be Shocked by what you learn.

- What is one thing you would tell others if they want to bring their message forward?

Be vulnerable and fearless. Share what is true in kindness and in a spirit of service. Start with what is true and you will do great! And you don’t need to be original. I think we are re-writing more than writing…

- Please share one or two quotes that you find impactful. These quotes can be from you or from someone else as long as they are powerful and moving! ➡ “Strive to be of value rather than successful.” -Einstein. I wanted to name the book “Joyful Profit” because it is based on this principal.

➡ Those who have a Why can bear almost any How – Victor Frankl – Man’s Search for Meaning. This reminds me to keep focused on what is important. Don’t “major in the minors”.

➡ “Unrecognized problems do not get solved” – I made this one up. It highlights the power of curiosity

- Do you have any upcoming projects you would like to share about with us?

Releasing Shocking Profit aside, I recently started a new project with a client that serves laboratories and universities. They make a good product and are able to customize the equipment they manufacture to fit what their customers need. As they are growing they are finding it hard to maintain their quality and to keep up with demand. We are 6 weeks in and have already helped the team cut their lead times from 14 weeks to 4 (yes you read that right), we have shipped all the past due shipments that had built up over the past 6 months, and we are developing self directed work teams. Tensions have melted and been replaced by a new excitement. Over the next few months we will develop a problem solving culture and fade into the sunset!

- Share something you have overcome or about a success you have had? My favorite success comes when we find a diamond hidden in the rough in a company. Then we get to see that person flourish with the right support and leadership. Every company is really in the business of developing leaders! We might be hired to help the company perform, but what we remember is helping the workers to realize what they can do.

In a way, my whole job is to go to companies, connect with their people and find ways to help them make life better for others and themselves. How lucky am I?

- Where can we get your book? It is scheduled for release on October 7th of this year. It will be available at Amazon.com and ShockingProfit.com.

- Any final thought, share, or idea that you would like to share with our readers today? Get Curious! Let go of judgments and ego. Find hidden value in yourself, your company and your friends and bring that value to light!

Lauren Pronger, #1 Wellness

Entrepreneur, Founder of SUPERWELL Living & CEO of Well Inspired Travels

Join me in welcoming Lauren Pronger, a passionate wellness educator and founder of SUPERWELL Living, a holistic lifestyle method built to help others align their energy, biology, and spirit for optimal well-being. With deep roots in luxury wellness travel, Lauren bridges the gap between high performance and healing. Her mission is to help individuals thrive, from burnout to brilliance.

- Share with us the title of your Book.

SUPERWELL: Your Ultimate Blueprint to Wellness and Wellbeing.

- What inspired you to write your book?

After years of guiding luxury wellness travelers, working with highperforming individuals, and navigating my own health struggles including caregiver burnout I realized the world didn’t need another quick fix or onesize-fits-all solution. We need a lifestyle approach rooted in science, soul, and sustainability. SUPERWELL was born out of my personal transformation from burnout to brilliance and my desire to share the roadmap. I wrote this book to help others reclaim their vitality and become the well striving to be SUPERWELL.

- What do you want others to get out of your book?

I want readers to walk away feeling empowered, not overwhelmed. This book is designed to reconnect you to your body’s wisdom, reset your nervous system, and create simple rituals that elevate every area of your life. Through my 8-pillar SUPERWELL Method, I offer a blueprint that’s practical, powerful, and deeply personal. My goal is to help people realize that living SUPERWELL is not only possible, it’s within reach.

- Provide us 1–3 tips to help the reader move forward.

➡ Start with nervous system regulation breathwork, contrast therapy, or grounding can change everything.

➡ Create a morning or evening “habit stack” that supports your rhythm and anchors your day.

➡ Shift your mindset from all-or-nothing to all-inon-you progress happens in the small, consistent choices we make each day.

- Share something you have overcome or about a success you have had.

In 2011, I was a full-time caregiver to my husband following a career-ending concussion, while my dad suffered a stroke and my mom was diagnosed with breast cancer. I had three young kids, no time for myself, and I hit a wall of emotional and physical burnout. That breakdown became my breakthrough. I rebuilt my health one habit at a time, became a certified holistic practitioner, and turned my pain into purpose guiding others toward a SUPERWELL life.

- What does Thriving mean to you?

Thriving means living in alignment with your true self mentally, physically, and spiritually. It’s not about perfection; it’s about feeling energized, grounded, and inspired in your everyday life. Thriving is having the resilience to weather life’s storms while still finding beauty in the moment. It’s choosing to rise, regulate, and radiate even when life gets messy.

Do you have any upcoming projects you would like to share about with us? Yes! The official launch of my book SUPERWELL: Your Ultimate Blueprint to Wellness and Wellbeing is September 16, 2025. I’m also planning a series of SUPERWELL retreats and corporate workshops to support small executive teams in optimizing performance through nervous system mastery and lifestyle design. Additionally, I continue to consult with luxury wellness hotels globally through my company, Well Inspired Travels.

Please welcome Sherry Lynn Campbell a novelist, storyteller and children’s book author as well as a life-long reader. Her favorite genres have always been Fantasy, Mystery and Science

Fiction, She enjoys all yarn crafts, including crochet, knitting, embroidery and needlepoint.

Since retiring from teaching, Sherry is following “her own inner child” to explore and write new stories for a wider audience. The Storyteller’s Quilt is her first book in the upcoming young adult or young-at-heart trilogy of the Storyteller’s journey.

- Share with us the title of your Book: The Storyteller’s Quilt: Beginnings Are Boundless

- Describe something our readers today can look forward to discovering in your book. Themselves. I think there is something in this book for everyone, young and old. The stories are filled with the courage to love and the magic that comes from that choice.

- What are 1-3 tips you can give our reader to help them step forward in their life powerfully?

Be faithful to who they are, which is already probably pretty great. We can all keep growing and learning and continue to refine ourselves but I believe being our selves is better than trying to be like someone else.

- Share something you are passionate about: I am passionate about life. I think that’s why I found my way into early childhood education, and then into elementary as well. Children are so vibrant and creative and inquisitive and curious and real. Meeting them where they are each moment taught me so much about myself.

I am my own success story, I never give up on myself. I am grateful that I had the courage to realize the moments in my life when I needed help, ask for it and find it and listen -not follow blindly - and find myself once more exactly where I am. I have a loving and wonderful support system around me to lean on…but only I can live my life.

The Art of Falling into Balance: Writing That Speaks from

the Soul

Growing up in the Midwest, I can remember listening to powerful thunderstorms and admiring how the world glistened and changed after it passed. These days I’m living in California and still love listening to rain on the roof but miss those dramatic cracks of thunder that made us all jump and then watch for the streaks of lighting across the dark sky.

Did you ever notice how closely writing mirrors the forces of nature? Think about the parallels between the storm’s intensity and the energy we pour into our writing. For me, writing is not just a task—it's a force of nature. Much like a storm, our words have the power to make waves, evoke emotions, and create change. It’s all about finding the balance that lets our words flow freely, nourishes the hearts of our readers, and makes them feel like they've experienced something deeply transformative. In nature, storms come with a mix of blustery winds, intense lightning, and loud thunder. Similarly, in writing, we sometimes feel the urge to be bold, to make our words like those sharp bolts of lightning that snap through the sky, grabbing attention with a sudden intensity. Our words can be like the claps of thunder that shake our very core, evoking a visceral response.

The world of writing can stir the soul in a way that is immediate and powerful, much like the shock of a storm. But here’s the thing about storms—while the lightning and thunder certainly grab our attention, they are fleeting. They come and go in a matter of seconds, and once they've passed, all that’s left is the memory of their brief yet profound impact. In writing, this is like those moments where we lash out with our words, hoping to convey everything at once. The effect can be strong, but it doesn’t always have lasting power. It can leave readers startled, but not necessarily moved.

In contrast, the gentler side of nature, like the steady patter of rain on a roof, offers something far more enduring. When we craft our words with intention, when we take the time to let them flow like soft raindrops, we create something nourishing. The rain, while quiet and gentle, offers nourishment to the earth, helping it to grow and thrive. Similarly, good writing, writing from our soul, that is infused with love, care, and wisdom has the ability to sustain and nourish the soul of the reader. It may not always be loud or jarring, but it leaves a lasting imprint. The words linger long after they’ve been read, inspiring growth, hope, and reflection.

So, what does it mean to write with this balance in mind? To fuse the excitement of lightning and thunder with the tenderness of rain? It’s about tapping into the wisdom we gain from life’s experiences and using those lessons to fuel our creative journey. It’s about finding our voice in the space between intensity and softness, between raw emotion and careful consideration.

This balance is essential for creating a life of creativity and hope. Often, we are told to write with passion, and rightfully so. Passion ignites change. Passion makes people stop in their tracks. But passion also needs to be tempered with patience. Our passion needs to be inspired by our purpose.

Our world is overflowing with noise, and it's easy to get caught up in the storm. But we cannot forget the quiet moments of reflection, the moments when we let the words flow gently and allow them to settle into the hearts of our readers. When we write with intention, we have the opportunity to create that perfect balance—one that brings both intensity and nourishment.

Our life experiences can act as the fuel for this balance. Each of us carries stories of struggle, triumph, joy, and sorrow. These moments, no matter how small they seem, hold the power to inform the creative process. Writing is a way to channel the wisdom gained from these experiences into something meaningful. It’s not just about crafting sentences and paragraphs; it’s about using writing to reflect on the moments that shaped us, to explore the lessons we’ve learned, and to find hope in the darkest of times. It’s about creating art that isn’t just for the moment, but for eternity.

Just like the thunderstorm, our writing doesn’t have to be perfect or entirely controlled. Life itself is messy, unpredictable, and sometimes chaotic. Writing, too, can reflect that. It’s okay to let our words surge with energy, to pour them onto the page in bursts of emotion and inspiration. But it’s equally important to let our words have room to breathe, to allow them to settle like raindrops, giving our readers space to take them in. The most beautiful writing is often a dance between the raw and the refined, the loud and the soft.

A conversation on the page with our Soul. It’s through this process of balancing intensity with gentleness that our writing can truly become a force of nature. When we find that rhythm, we create work that resonates deeply and meaningfully with others. This is how writing becomes more than just an expression—it becomes a force that changes lives, including our own. Writing is about connection. As you sit down to write, remember this: Our words are a reflection of you. They carry the wisdom of our life’s experiences. How we have not only weathered the storms, the rain has helped us thrive. The lessons we have learned have the potential to inspire and heal…for us and others. In order to do so, they need to find balance. Embrace the power of both the storm and the rain. Let our words speak with the thunder of our passions and the quiet depth of our experiences. Allow them to nourish the hearts of those who read them, just as rain nourishes the earth.

So, what kind of storm will you create with our words today? Will you let them crash like thunder and light up the sky? Or will you let them fall softly like rain, comforting and steady? The beauty of writing is that it can be both—intense and soothing, loud and quiet, like nature itself. Fall into balance, and let our writing become a force of nature that leaves a lasting impression on the world.

As writers, we must allow ourselves to fall into the natural rhythm of life’s experiences. Just as a thunderstorm carries both chaos and calm, our words must embody this balance, reflecting the intensity of our emotions while nourishing our readers. Let the wisdom of our experiences guide our writing, infusing it with creativity and hope. By embracing both the storm and the rain, you can create work that truly resonates and lasts.

If you would like to be part of it as a writer, sponsor/advertiser, or you'd like to become a part of our powerful network then schedule a time to talk with Rebecca about the options and opportunities: www.MeetWithRebecca.com or send Rebecca an email with your idea to: Rebecca@RHGMediaProductions.com.
