From Dream to Reality: My Journey to Publishing with Dave Thompson and Davina Davidson

From Dream to Reality: My Journey to Publishing with Dave Thompson and Davina Davidson

Have you ever had a dream so big it feels impossible? That was me, sitting on a book idea for years, unsure how to bring it to life. But today, I’m excited to share with you my incredible journey of writing and publishing my book, and it wouldn’t have happened without the team at Inspirational Book Writers.

On the latest episode of Hard Beautiful Journey, I had the pleasure of chatting with Dave Thompson, the founder, and Davina Davidson, the publishing manager. They’re not just book publishers—they’re soul connectors, helping people like me bring their most vulnerable stories into the world.

I still can’t believe that eight months ago, I was struggling to cross the finish line with my book. Then, my good friend Brianna Vincent introduced me to Dave, and after one conversation, I knew I had found the team who would not only support me but help me stay true to my voice.

What I loved most about this episode was hearing the backstory of Inspirational Book Writers. Did you know they used to host book-writing retreats at a private beach house overlooking the Coral Sea? Picture this: stunning ocean views, great company, and writing your book in a week. Doesn’t that sound amazing? And while they’ve pivoted to online intensives now, the magic is still there. They create a container for people like me who are done procrastinating and want to finally share their story.

But it wasn’t just the process of writing that made this journey special. It was the deep connection I felt with Dave and Davina. They get it. They get how scary it is to put your heart on paper, how vulnerable it feels to open up your soul to an editor and not lose your voice in the process. Trust me—Dave is very passionate about keeping your authentic voice intact, and I’m living proof that they do just that.

In this episode, we dive into all things writing, fear, and the rollercoaster of emotions that come with launching a book. Whether you’re thinking of writing a book or simply want a peek behind the curtain of what it takes, this episode is for you.

I can’t wait for you to hear the stories, the laughs, and maybe shed a few tears as we talk about everything from ugly cries to finding the courage to release something so personal to the world.

Love Tiff xx
