Overcome Self-Doubt & Choose Your Publishing Path with Amy Bernstein

What if the doubt you feel isn't a sign that you should quit, but proof that you're taking a risk worth pursuing? As creatives, entrepreneurs, and aspiring authors, so many of us are secretly battling the same internal chatter. "Who am I to do this?" "What if I look silly?" "What if nobody cares?" We spend so much energy trying to erase those uncomfortable feelings before we ever hit publish, launch the project, or write the first chapter. But what if we stopped trying to banish our doubts and started learning how to walk alongside them instead? That is exactly what author Amy Bernstein and I dive into in this powerful episode of Beyond the Bestseller. Amy is a lifelong creative who has published seven books—including her illustrated non-fiction title, Wrangling the Doubt Monster: Fighting Fears, Finding Inspiration. Together, we unpack why self-doubt is actually a natural byproduct of taking creative risks, how to build a support network of allies to keep you moving forward, and how to navigate the honest realities of choosing between self-publishing and traditional publishing based on your personal strengths and temperament.
