Golden Nuggets From Our Conversation:
- The common denominator with big speakers and influencers was that they have published a book.
- Your podcast and your published book can work together to help promote each other.
- Start where you are more comfortable. If you like speaking better, start with a podcast. If you like writing, start with your book and get the ball rolling.
- "The only way you can fail is by doing nothing. Taking action anytime is a good thing."
- A book is a lot of up front work that you can leverage forever. A podcast is something with less work at the beginning, but can provide regular activity.
- Publishing a book gives people a natural confidence that can't help but come out. Internal self confidence comes out.
- There's magic around publishing a book. Take advantage of that psychologically!
- Published books are credibility indicators to the public!
