  • 08 | Before You Self-Publish Your Manuscript, Fix These 3 Things First, Christian Coach 14.09.2026 16min
    Friend, you’ve finished your manuscript. You’ve written the chapters. You’ve edited the words. You’ve probably read those pages more times than you can count. And now you’re thinking: “I’m done. I can finally publish my book.” But before you click Publish, there are three things you need to look at. Because finishing your manuscript doesn't mean your book is finished. In this episode of Publish Your Authority, we’re talking about the final pieces that can help your authority book look, read, and feel like the professional book your message deserves. In this episode, you’ll discover: 1. Why your book cover matters more than you think Your cover is your reader’s first introduction to your authority. Learn why a professional book-cover designer can help communicate your message without taking away your vision. 2. Why you shouldn’t let your own eyes be the final editor You know what you meant to say—but your reader only knows what you actually said. We’ll talk about why a qualified human editor can help you identify repetition, confusing sections, weak transitions, inconsistencies, and places where your reader may lose momentum. 3. Why your manuscript still isn’t a book until it’s professionally formatted Your Word document may look great on your computer, but a professionally prepared book requires attention to layout, margins, trim size, chapter openings, page numbers, and publishing requirements. And you don’t need to become a KDP formatting expert to publish your book. The bigger lesson Self-publishing doesn't mean doing everything yourself. It means taking ownership of getting your book into the world. Sometimes stewardship means knowing what you can do yourself—and knowing when it’s wise to bring in someone with the right expertise. As 1 Corinthians 14:40 reminds us: “But everything should be done in a fitting and orderly way.” This isn't about perfection. Excellence isn't perfection. Excellence is stewardship. Your Episode 08 checklist Before you publish, ask yourself: ☐ Does my cover look like an authority book?☐ Has an experienced human editor reviewed my manuscript?☐ Has someone who understands KDP professionally formatted my book? If one answer is no, don't panic. Just don't publish yet. Your book deserves the finishing attention it needs.   Do you know you have a God-given message inside you, but have no idea where to start with your book? Are you waiting for more clarity, more confidence, or more time before becoming an author? Welcome to Publish Your Authority! I'm Robin—a dad, husband, and Jesus follower—and I'm on a mission to help Christian coach turn their message into an authority book that builds credibility, attracts clients, and creates lasting impact. Each week, you'll discover simple, step-by-step strategies to organize your ideas, overcome overwhelm, gain clarity, and confidently write the book God has placed on your heart. If you're ready to become a trusted voice, create a legacy for your family, and make a greater impact through your message—without sacrificing your faith, family, or sanity—this podcast is for you. If you've been thinking, "I know God has given me a message, but I don't know where to start," or "How do I turn all these ideas into a book?"

  • 07 | Think Self-Publishing Is Hard? What Nobody Tells Christian Author About Publishing Your Authority 07.09.2026 20min
    Coach, You finally finished your manuscript. You wrote between coaching calls, squeezed in a few minutes before the kids woke up, or stayed up late after everyone went to bed. And now that your book is finally written, you’re facing a whole new question: “How do I actually publish this book?” Suddenly, you’re trying to understand ISBNs, book formats, publishing platforms, distribution, formatting, covers, and marketing. And if you’re a busy Christian coach and working mom, you may be wondering: “Do I really have to figure all of this out myself?” No—you don’t. In this episode of Publish Your Authority, we’re taking the mystery out of self-publishing and looking at what Christian authors often don’t realize about bringing an authority book to life. You’ll discover why publishing is a process—not a mystery, why you don’t need every publishing option available, and why self-publishing does not mean doing everything yourself. More importantly, we’ll step back from the technical details and ask the question that should guide your publishing decisions: “What is my book supposed to do?” Because your authority book isn’t simply another product to put on Amazon. It can become a vehicle for your message, a way to demonstrate your expertise, and a doorway for the people you’re called to serve. And if you’ve been thinking, “I’m already managing clients, family, work, and everything else. How am I supposed to publish a book too?”—this conversation is for you. You’ll leave this episode with a much clearer picture of the publishing process, permission to get help where you need it, and one simple question to answer before you worry about all the technical details. Your book doesn’t have to be created all at once. It just needs to keep moving forward. In this episode, you’ll learn: Why self-publishing can feel much harder than it actually is The difference between writing, publishing, and marketing your book Why you don’t need to become an expert in every part of publishing How to think about ISBNs, formats, and publishing options without getting overwhelmed Why self-published doesn’t have to mean self-done How to decide what your authority book is actually supposed to accomplish Why your book can be more than a book—it can serve the message and people God has called you to reach The one simple action step that can help you make your next publishing decision with clarity And before you leave, you’ll be invited to finish this sentence: “My authority book is designed to help ______ achieve ______.” If you’ve been putting off publishing because the process feels too complicated, press play. You don’t have to know everything. You don’t have to do everything. And you don’t have to wait until life gets less busy. You can publish your authority book—one step at a time. Do you know you have a God-given message inside you, but have no idea where to start with your book? Are you waiting for more clarity, more confidence, or more time before becoming an author?

  • 06 | Why Most Christian Authors Never Finish Their Manuscript (And How You Can) 31.08.2026 17min
    Coach, You know you’re supposed to write your book. You’ve had the idea for months—or maybe even years. You have stories. Coaching experiences. Notes everywhere. Ideas in your phone. Maybe even a partially written manuscript. But somehow… you still haven’t finished. And if you’re a busy Christian coach trying to balance your clients, business, family, faith, and everything else on your plate, you may be wondering: “When am I ever going to have the time to actually finish this book?” Here’s what I want you to hear in this episode: You probably don’t have an idea problem. You have a process problem. In this Episode, I’m breaking down why so many Christian coaches get stuck before their manuscript is finished—and what you can do differently. You’ll discover how to: Stop trying to put everything you know into one book Identify the one transformation your book should create for your reader Turn the message you already teach into a clear writing path Stop overthinking every chapter and wondering if your book is “good enough” Create a simpler approach to finally moving your manuscript forward Write with greater clarity—even when you don't have hours of uninterrupted time And most importantly, you’ll see why finishing your authority book isn’t about finding more time to write. It’s about knowing what actually needs to be written—and what doesn’t. So if you’ve been carrying a book inside you but keep telling yourself… “I’ll finish it when things slow down.” This episode is for you. Because your message doesn’t need to stay trapped in your coaching sessions, your notes, or your head. It can become a book that positions you as the trusted authority—and opens the door for more people to discover your coaching. Your book doesn’t have to be perfect. It has to be finished. Do you know you have a God-given message inside you, but have no idea where to start with your book? Are you waiting for more clarity, more confidence, or more time before becoming an author?

  • 05 | 3 Steps to Write Your Authority Book When You Have Too Many Ideas as a Christian Coach 25.08.2026 20min
    Christian Coach, You have the ideas. Maybe you have hundreds of them. So why is writing your authority book still so difficult? If you’re a Christian coach, chances are you don’t struggle with what to say. You struggle with deciding which idea should become the book. You have coaching conversations, lessons you’ve taught, stories you’ve lived, frameworks you’ve created, and messages you know could help people. But when you sit down to write, everything starts competing for your attention. And suddenly, your book feels overwhelming before you even write the first page. In this episode, I'll show you how to move from too many ideas to one clear authority book—so you can stop collecting ideas and finally start building the manuscript that can position you as the trusted voice in your niche. You’ll discover how to identify the idea worth turning into a book, distill your coaching expertise into a single clear message, and set a direction for your manuscript without trying to say everything you know. Because your authority book doesn’t need to contain everything you know. It needs to help the right reader solve the right problem. If you’ve been saying, “I know I have a book in me, but I don’t know where to start,” this episode is for you. Press play and let’s turn your scattered ideas into a clear book direction. Then take one small step toward publishing the message God has entrusted to you.   Do you know you have a God-given message inside you, but have no idea where to start with your book?

  • 04 | 3 Biggest Mistake Christian Coach Make Before She Write Her Authority Book (It’s Not What You Think) 16.08.2026 20min
    Christian Coach, Before you write your authority book, there’s one mistake that could make the entire process harder than it needs to be—and it has nothing to do with writing. In this episode, we’re talking about why so many Christian coaches jump straight into writing chapters before getting clear on the one message their book is actually meant to communicate. And here’s the surprising part: your book isn’t supposed to be a collection of everything you know. It should become a clear expression of the transformation you already help your coaching clients achieve. We’ll unpack what to clarify before you write a single chapter, how your coaching framework can become the foundation of your authority book, and how to make sure your book ultimately supports your bigger mission—attracting the right coaching clients and expanding the message God has entrusted to you. So if you’ve been saying, “I know I’m supposed to write a book, but I don’t know where to start,” this episode is for you. Because before you write the book, you need to know what the book is really supposed to do. Do you know you have a God-given message inside you, but have no idea where to start with your book? Are you waiting for more clarity, more confidence, or more time before becoming an author? Welcome to the Publish Your Authority! I'm Robin—a dad, husband, and Jesus follower—and I'm on a mission to help Christian coach turn their message into an authority book that builds credibility, attracts clients, and creates lasting impact.

  • 03 | Stop Starting with Chapter One! 3 Steps to Write Your Authority Book in the Right Order 09.08.2026 15min
    Christian Coach, Have you ever opened a blank document, stared at the screen, and thought, “I have so much I want to say… but where do I even start?” Maybe you’ve been trying to write Chapter One, only to rewrite it, delete it, and start all over again. What if the problem isn’t that you can’t write? What if you’re simply starting in the wrong place? In this episode, I show Christian coach how to stop forcing herself to write Chapter One and instead begin by building the right blueprint for her authority book. Your coaching framework already has a structure. Your clients’ questions already reveal what they need. And when you organize those pieces in the right order, writing becomes much clearer—and far less overwhelming. Inside this episode, you’ll discover how to: Turn your coaching framework into a clear table of contents Organize your ideas before you start writing chapters Stop editing while you’re still drafting Write with one clear purpose: helping your reader Create a simple writing plan you can actually follow And you don’t need to spend your entire day doing it. Give yourself just 20 minutes to organize your chapters. That small step could be what takes you from “I don’t know where to start” to “I finally know what I’m writing.” If God has placed a book on your heart, you don’t have to figure out the entire manuscript today. You just need to put the pieces in the right order—and take the next faithful step. Press play and learn how to write your authority book with clarity instead of confusion. Hey, Christian Coach!

  • 02 | Imposter Syndrome? Start Writing Your First Authority Book Using Your Coaching Framework 09.08.2026 15min
    Coach, What if the reason you haven’t started your authority book isn’t that you don’t have enough knowledge—but that you’re waiting to feel ready? If you’ve ever thought, “I’m not ready to write a book,” “I need more experience,” or “Who am I to call myself an author?”—this episode is for you. As a Christian coach, you may already have more book material than you realize. The questions your clients ask you. The problems you help them solve. The conversations you have over and over again. Your coaching framework may already be the foundation of your first authority book. In this episode, I share how to move past imposter syndrome and start writing from what you already know and teach. Drawing from the story of Moses in Exodus and my own experience, I explore a powerful truth: confidence doesn’t always come before obedience—sometimes confidence follows obedience. You’ll discover how to: Turn recurring client questions into potential book chapters Use your coaching conversations instead of staring at a blank page Identify the framework already inside your coaching business Stop trying to impress everyone and start serving one specific reader Take the first practical step toward writing the Authority Book God has placed on your heart You don’t need another degree. You don’t need perfect credentials. And you don’t need to have everything figured out before you begin. You may need to take the first step.

  • 01 | 4 Steps Every Christian Coach Should Take First Before Writing Their Authority Book 07.08.2026 12min
    Christian Coach, Have you been telling yourself, "I know God has given me a message... I just don't know where to start?" In today's episode, we're uncovering why most Christian coaches start writing their book the wrong way—and the simple shift that brings clarity before you ever write your first chapter. You'll discover how to organize your ideas, stop feeling overwhelmed, and create a clear roadmap that helps you publish your authority book with confidence. If you've been praying for clarity, dreaming of becoming a trusted Christian author, and want your book to attract more coaching clients while creating lasting impact, this episode is for you. During the COVID lockdown in 2019, I suddenly found myself with something I hadn't had in a long time—time to slow down and reflect. One dream kept coming back to me: I wanted to write a book. But almost immediately, I found myself asking, "Where do I even start?" After praying for wisdom, I felt the Holy Spirit prompting me to study the books of Christian authors I admired. As I analysed how they organized their message, I discovered a simple pattern that became the foundation of my own writing process: Framework one, two, three, and four. That simple framework gave me the clarity and confidence to begin writing, and it eventually became the foundation of what I now teach Christian coaches who want to turn their God-given message into an authority-building book. If you've been thinking, "I know God has given me a message, but I don't know where to start," or "How do I turn all these ideas into a book?"
