60. Unlearning Perfectionism with Richelle Fredson

This week, I sit down with my book proposal coach turned friend, Richelle Fredson to unpack her journey with unlearning perfectionism. It's a topic that all too many of us can relate to and I know you are going to love this conversation with Richelle. In this powerful episode, Richelle and I get into the ways that the seeds of perfectionism are planted early in us as women, how it shows up in every facet of life. With Richelle and I both celebrating our glorious 40s, we reflect on how perfectionism can't take up any more space than it already has in our lives.   Richelle Fredson, book publishing consultant and the “six-figure book deal coach,” knows all the angles of the publishing biz. An industry vet, she spent 15 years at Hay House Inc., most recently as the Director of Publicity and Book Marketing, as well as Acquisitions. She now works with aspiring and existing authors who are looking to expand their business, create an impact, and shift the current dialogue. Her expertise, paired with her sharp instincts, has helped hundreds of authors create impactful and marketable book concepts and proposals, resulting in millions of dollars in publishing deals with top publishers. Her recent clients include Farnoosh Torabi, Chrissy King, Jannese Torres-Rodriguez, Jen Winston, Dr. Vanessa Marin and more. Richelle brings a unique gift to the table: she’s been on both sides of the deal and knows what publishers and authors are looking for and how to get it. Through this lens, she guides authors as they anchor their stories and amplify their expertise to make a greater impact. She’s also the host of the Bound + Determined podcast where she lifts the veil on book publishing through education and interviews.
