Ever wished you could freeze time to cherish those precious fleeting moments of your child's early days? That's the exact conundrum that led me, a new parent, to create Letters to Ollie, a customizable journal notebook designed to help caregivers capture and immortalize those heartwarming memories. Inspired by the birth of my son, Oliver, this memory milestone book is more than a journal; it's a treasure trove of prompts and pages for recording every special moment that would otherwise be lost in the haze of new parenthood.
Struggling to choose between a hardcover copy or a digital file? You're not alone. I grappled with the same question before realizing the tangible, emotional value that a hardcover version offers. There's something undeniably special about flipping through the pages of a book filled with the moments that made you smile, laugh, and maybe even shed a tear or two. But don't worry, I haven't dismissed the idea of an electronic version. Join me as I share my journey of creating this keepsake, explore the emotional weight of a hardcover book, and discuss the potential for a digital version of Letters to Ollie. This isn't just about creating a journal; it's about preserving the precious essence of a child's early years in a timeless gift.

Imagine the exhilaration of stepping beyond your comfort zone, confronting your fears head-on, and finally committing to your passion project. That’s exactly the journey I embarked upon, launching a free Intro to Publishing Workshop. As a new mum and innate perfectionist, my insecurities and fear of visibility were high. But with a teacher's heart and a desire to help others navigate the publishing process, I pushed past the fears and anxieties, transforming them into a motivation that fueled my journey.
Can you relate to the feeling of being trapped in the quicksand of self-doubt? Join me as I share my story of courage, revealing the internal pep talks and the Mel Robbins 5-4-3-2-1 countdown that helped me hit the share button. You'll hear about the challenges of balancing my responsibilities and my passion, and how I managed to turn my fears into a source of motivation. Most importantly, I hope to offer you encouragement as you face your own fears and venture into your daunting projects. As I had to remind myself, nothing changes if nothing changes - so maybe it's time for you to make your dreams a reality.
