Rise & Roar Behind the Scenes by Heather LaFond

The Raw, Unfiltered Journey of Writing

Writing Rise & Roar: Unleash Your Inner Power was one wild ride, let me tell you. It wasn't all rainbows and butterflies - more like a gut-wrenching, soul-searching, "holy shit, I'm really doing this," kind of adventure. When I first sat down to write this book, I had no idea what I was getting myself into. I thought, "Hey, I've got some wisdom to share, so why not write a book about it?" Little did I know, writing a book is like giving birth - painful, messy, and you question your life choices every step of the way.

But here's the thing: just like giving birth, writing Rise & Roar was also incredibly transformative and empowering. As I poured my heart and soul onto the pages, I realized that I was not only writing a book but also embarking on a journey of self-discovery and growth. I learned that writing is a lot like life - it's not about perfection. It's about progress. Some days, the words flowed like a river of inspiration. Other days, I stared at a blank screen, wondering if I had anything worth saying at all. But I kept showing up, day after day because I knew that this book had the power to change lives - starting with my own.

One of the biggest hurdles I faced while writing Rise & Roar was the nagging voice of imposter syndrome. Despite having done extensive subconscious mindset work in the past, I still found myself questioning whether my message was valuable enough, whether anyone would want to read the shit I had to say. I had to continually remind myself that my experiences, insights, and wisdom were worthy of being shared with the world!

Another challenge was learning to trust my own unique voice and perspective. In a world filled with self-help books and personal development resources, it can be easy to fall into the trap of trying to sound like someone else or conform to a certain style. But as I wrote, I realized that the most powerful and resonant writing comes from speaking your truth in your own authentic way, no matter how raw or unfiltered it may be.

Through the process of writing, I also learned the importance of embracing vulnerability and being willing to share the messy, imperfect parts of my journey. I had to get comfortable with the discomfort of exposing my own struggles, fears, and doubts on the page. But in doing so, I discovered that vulnerability is not a weakness - it's a strength that allows us to connect with others on a deep, human level. It takes guts, but it's so worth it.

Perhaps the most important lesson I learned while writing this book was to trust in the power of my own message. Even when self-doubt crept in, I had to remember that the insights and wisdom I had to share were valuable and needed in the world. I had to believe in the transformative potential of my words and trust that they would resonate with the people who needed to hear them most, no matter how much my inner critic tried to convince me otherwise.

And you know what? It fucking worked. Rise & Roar: Unleash Your Inner Power is not just a collection of words on a page - it's a battle cry for anyone who has ever felt stuck, lost, or powerless. It's a reminder that we all have the strength and resilience within us to overcome any obstacle and create the life we desire.

It's time to wake up your unconscious mind, challenge and rewire your thinking, and practice being a happier and healthier version of yourself. No excuses, no holding back, no more B.S.
