Join me in this exciting episode as I sit down with Qat Wanders, an accomplished author, editor, and speaker who has used books to build her thriving seven-figure business. Qat shares her inspiring journey of transitioning from traditional publishing to self-publishing and the incredible impact it had on her career.

Dealing with chronic pain and seeking a work-from-home opportunity, Qat discovered the power of self-publishing through Self-Publishing School (SPS). Despite facing personal challenges, including her father's terminal illness, Qat embarked on a remarkable publishing journey. She transformed her initial memoir project into a best-selling book about yoga, fulfilling her father's dying wish to witness her success.

Qat's creativity extended to her daughter, Ora, who at the age of eight, came up with a captivating fiction storyline. With Qat's guidance, Ora turned her idea into a published book, receiving accolades from school, teachers, and a growing social media following. Qat shares valuable advice for parents supporting their children's book-writing aspirations, emphasizing the importance of encouragement without crossing into nagging territory.

As Qat continued to hone her writing skills, she found that the more she learned and edited, the greater her improvement. By understanding the nuances of different book genres, she could focus her editing efforts effectively.

Listen in to discover how Qat established her successful business after her book launches, her transition from traditional publishing to becoming a circus entertainer, and her insightful tip on eliminating double spacing between sentences.

Don't miss this engaging conversation about the power of writing a book to build a business and the transformative impact it can have on your life and career.
