EP. 29 | Relight Your Fire | Writing a business book, forming good habits and being consistent with Alison Jones

In this episode, I’m joined by Alison Jones, founder of independent publishing company Practical Inspiration Publishing and host of The Extraordinary Business Book Club podcast. The idea of writing a book for many business leaders is a daunting prospect. But as you’ll hear in this episode, it’s significantly easier than many of us think with the right mindset and execution. Alison debunks some of the common misconceptions around what you need to get started, how to work with publishers and how the digital landscape currently lends itself to the book economy.
