You’ve already accomplished so much—your days are full, your schedule is packed, and yet… there’s this quiet, persistent tug at your heart. A dream you’ve carried for a while now: to write a children’s picture book that inspires, uplifts, and leaves a lasting legacy.
But then the questions start flooding in:
✨ “Where do I even begin?”
✨ “Can I really do this?”
✨ “What if no one wants to read my book?”
If you’ve felt overwhelmed, confused, or disheartened by the process, know that you are not alone. I was once right there too. I knew I had a story inside me, but I didn’t know how to bring it to life without feeling lost, doubtful, or like an imposter. What I truly needed—but didn’t realize at the time—was someone to walk alongside me. Someone who could hold space for both my creative dreams and gently help me explore the inner blocks, while nurturing my voice and holding a bigger vision for what was possible.
It’s a unique blend of emotional support, mindset work, and practical guidance—designed to nurture your whole self as you bring your story to life.
It’s not about publishing your book for you—Soulful KidLit is a holistic coaching experience that honors both your creative vision and personal growth.
Through step-by-step coaching, I’ll help you confidently navigate the self-publishing process, ensuring you understand every part while staying true to your voice and vision.
You deserve to learn the process in a way that leaves you proud of your book and confident in your ability to publish again and again—on your terms, keeping all your royalties and owning every step of your journey.
I see you. I believe in you. And I’d be honored to support you.

The Strategy Call is a no-pressure space via Zoom to connect and explore whether coaching is a good fit for your journey. You’ll share your current goals or challenges, and I’ll offer insight into how I can support you. Think of it as your first step toward clarity—with no strings attached. If coaching isn’t the best fit right now, we can also explore other ways to support your path, like group workshops or courses designed to meet you where you are.
Soulful KidLit™ is for those ready to take full ownership of their creative journey and are committed to crafting meaningful, impactful picture books.
Your success is in your hands—I’m here to help you with holistic guidance, providing insights and strategies to help you move forward with clarity and confidence. The direction and outcome of your path depend on your dedication and commitment, and together we’ll navigate your creative journey with purpose and intention.
I am not a publisher, but I’ll guide and support you through every step of the process so you can learn exactly how to self-publish your book on your own. As an internationally award-winning author, with several seasonal best-seller titles on Amazon, and having been featured in major publications like PBS Kids, I’ve successfully navigated the self-publishing journey. I bring that knowledge and expertise to help you confidently move forward. From nurturing your story to understanding how to share it with the world, you’ll retain full creative control and ownership of your book and royalties.
My coaching is designed for creatives, aspiring authors, businesses/organizations, and purpose-driven individuals who feel called to grow, embrace creative autonomy, and move forward. Whether you’re navigating your self-publishing path or your personal or business transformation, I meet you where you are—with compassion and soulful guidance.
Each coaching package offers a different level of support based on your needs. From single breakthrough sessions to multi-week journeys, I tailor the experience to align with your goals. You'll find full descriptions and pricing in the Work With Me section.
No! While I specialize in supporting aspiring children’s book authors, many of my clients are seeking more than just a "how-to" for publishing. They’re looking to rediscover their voice, realign with their purpose, and cultivate the mindset and creative flow needed to confidently bring their stories to life — whether they self-publish or explore other creative paths. If you feel called to work with me, let’s talk and explore how we can align your vision with your creative journey.
I don’t—on purpose. At Soulful KidLit, I believe in honoring each creative lane. Editing and illustrations are highly specialized crafts, and I encourage aspiring picture book authors to collaborate with professionals trained in those areas. My expertise lies in holistic coaching that supports your mindset, clarity, and alignment—so you can move forward with confidence, purpose, and a deep connection to your vision. Rather than offering technical services, I guide you through the emotional, strategic, and soulful parts of your self-publishing journey.
Once you book your session, you’ll receive a confirmation email and a short pre-session questionnaire to help us make the most of our time together. Then we meet—soul to soul—and dive into your goals, challenges, and next steps.
Absolutely. Many clients begin with a single session and choose to continue for deeper, ongoing transformation. I offer tailored coaching journeys designed to support your growth over time.
