S2 Episode 16: The Mindset You Need to Finish Your Book with Mike Alcantara

Whether you’re just starting or stuck somewhere in the process, this is the kind of conversation that makes writing a book feel possible again.In this episode, Rachel and Nino sit down with author Mike Alcantara to talk about the real process of writing and publishing a book—from the messy beginning stages to the “I’m so over this” moment that actually means you’re done. We dive into how Mike turned personal struggles, journaling, and problem-solving into a full framework and what it actually took to bring that idea to life.We’re also breaking down what makes a nonfiction book actually useful (not just inspirational). From actionable tools and worksheets to storytelling, structure, and those underrated “key insights” sections, this conversation pulls back the curtain on what separates a book people read… from a book people use.Get Mike's book: https://www.barnesandnoble.com/w/the-problem-re-solving-solution-michael-d-alcantara/1149751716💌 Don’t miss a thing: Subscribe and follow Storystruck wherever you listen so you never miss an episode!
