Ep 77. Get Paid to Write Your Book: A Realistic, Soul-Led Approach for Busy Creators
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
In this episode, Jayme pulls back the curtain on what it actually looked like to write a book while running two businesses, caring for two young children, and living a full, real life.
No writing retreats. No unlimited free time. No waiting for the “perfect moment.”
Jayme shares how she wrote her book in spare moments—during naps, between work blocks, and inside the rhythms of everyday life—and how she got paid to write it before it was even finished (twice, actually).
This episode is both permission and strategy for anyone who’s been holding a book inside them but feels overwhelmed, under-resourced, or stuck in perfectionism.
Inside the episode, Jayme covers:
- How to write a book without pausing your life or business
- Why reframing your book as a guidebook or e-book removes pressure and builds momentum
- How organizing your existing content can become the foundation of your manuscript
- The live, interactive writing experience she created with a small group of women
- How early access, live calls, and private sessions generated $5,000 before publication
- Using pre-sales and tiered pricing to stay committed and supported
- Why transparency around money matters when creating big projects
- How your book can become a lead magnet and long-term business asset
- Why self-publishing offers more creative freedom, income control, and alignment
- Using tools like Grammarly and AI to support (not replace) your voice
Jayme also shares how writing publicly, inviting readers into the process, and allowing real-time feedback transformed the experience from something lonely and daunting into something alive, supported, and energizing.
This episode is for entrepreneurs, coaches, creatives, and visionaries who know they’re meant to write—but want a realistic, sustainable, and financially supported path forward.
✨ If you’ve been waiting for permission to begin, this is it.
✨ If you want support, Jayme shares how this work lives inside her business school and mastermind spaces.
