The Brazen Code audiobook is officially live! 🥳 Anyone in this community knows how much sits behind a sentence like that. The writing. The rewriting. The positioning decisions. The moments of doubt. The technical details. The launch planning. The constant question of whether the book is actually saying what you meant it to say. So I want to give a very real thank-you to the Book Launchers team—especially Julie. I’ve learned from your content, tools, frameworks, and support for years, and so much of it helped me think more clearly about how to bring this book into the world. The Brazen Code is the power playbook women were never given. My hope is that it becomes more than a book and more than an audiobook. I want it to become a force multiplier for women’s economic power. But before it could do any of that, I had to finish it, shape it, position it, and launch it. This community helped me do that better. I’m grateful to be sharing this milestone with people who understand what it takes to get a nonfiction book across the finish line. Thank you, Book Launchers! The Brazen Code audiobook is live now. United we rise. Stay brazen. —Martise

Hello Wordsmith Family: Truly tickled to share that I just published my nonfiction audiobook I TRIED TO BE NORMAL BUT IT WAS TAKEN on Audible and I could not have paid for a better review! Am I showing off? Apparently yes. I believe in celebrating our successes. We all know where we can improve. If anyone wants a freebie and does not have an audible acct you can access mine for free for 30 days by clickling: https://www.audible.com/pd/I-Tried-to-Be-Normal-but-It-Was-Taken-Audiobook/B0HKT1G1G1?qid=1790619636&intent=discovery&sr=1-1&ref_pageloadid=not_applicable&pf_rd_p=83218cca-c308-412f-bfcf-90198b687a2f&pf_rd_r=F1HFKBXBQ3QRV1BXJK2X&plink=IEUEiFPbjBDOohjT&pageLoadId=cXg2IrNfw8HJPHU6&creativeId=0d6f6720-f41c-457e-a42b-8c8dceb62f2c&ref=a_search_c3_lProduct_1_1&fbclid=IwY2xjawUuJjFleHRuA2FlbQIxMABwZG9mBWJyaWQRMThvbG4ySnBBeDhLQzdvSndzcnRjBmFwcF9pZBAyMjIwMzkxNzg4MjAwODkyAAEevb-He4hssa33QY8xAx7Rn9LYvTPa1DPd_PrnycJPP4mGxqM1LNmkrvz_Pzk_aem_n6edAM0LNKAco6gwI8n9zQ

Julie always says that sales are not necessarily the goal. My goal has been legacy and last week I brought my book to UCSF Medical Center Archive and Special Collection and 4 of my paintings that the archivist wanted to see. She took all four paintings into the archive to be preserved forever (if the planet survives). And she wants to come to my home studio to see two more.

Today we’re celebrating the launch of Positively Not Old: Mindset and Longevity Habits for Aging Well by Dr. @Jim Beckwith! After decades of caring for patients, Jim has seen how easily “I’m getting old” can become a limiting belief. His book challenges that mindset and shows readers how small, intentional actions can create an upward spiral toward better health, stronger relationships, renewed purpose, and greater confidence in what’s still possible. Help us congratulate Jim on bringing this encouraging message into the world! 🥳
