Ep 01: What This Book Is Requiring of Me
From The Beautiful Climb Podcast · 21:44
Show by Michelle Knight
The Beautiful Climb is back. Not as a new podcast, but as the continuation of something I started in 2019, in an RV, in the middle of grief, without knowing it would one day become a book.In this first episode, I’m talking about what writing this book is actually requiring of me. Not the steps needed, not the how-to, but the stripping away of layers to get to the heart of what this book stands for. The vulnerability, and the version of me that has to show up to make something this personal. I’m also sharing more about my business rebuild and why I finally know it’s time.In this episode, I get into:* How a podcast I started in 2019 quietly became the chapters and the title of my first book coming this October* The three storytelling books sitting on my desk right now that shaped how I think about telling a story (none of them the ones you’d expect and none are business-related)* The September pattern I didn’t notice until I was already inside it. From signing my first client in 2016, hitting six figures a year later, and the “what do I have to lose” energy I’m feeling again after a decade of entrepreneurship* Why launching this book, and this next iteration of my business, feels like grieving the identity I built over ten years* What I’d say to you if you’re in a season where you can feel something shifting, and you’re white-knuckling what used to workIf something in this episode stirred something in you, come tell me in the subscriber chat. I’ll be asking questions there and going deeper on what you want more of.This is The Beautiful Climb.MichelleP.S.
