A circle of wise teachers, healers, and coaches crafting visionary nonfiction books.
You've got tons of content and stories that your people love. And you know it's time to put all that into a book!
But something gets lost in translation when you try to put it on the page.
Maybe you're sitting up late at night writing page after page, wondering how you're going to decide what goes where when it comes to fitting it between the covers of a book.
Or you find yourself gazing out the window, drifting into Sudoku-land, or going in circles with a chat bot that turns everything you want to say into some vague "journey of transformation" as we do "delicate dances" while we "weave the tapestries of our lives."
It's not just you.
Like every other major undertaking in life, a book takes a village.
If you've been struggling to make progress for too long on your own, you have come to the right place!
Join us for
and get ready to write a book that changes lives (including your own)
Your voice matters. Your wisdom is needed.
It's time to step into your role as an author and share your gifts with the world.
I'm Laura Fox. I've guided dozens of soul-driven healers and teachers like you to write, publish, and promote books that .
Starting in November, I'll be guiding the next cohort of four soul-driven authors to map out their books!
Authors are Saying...
Why make a plan first?
The author who can sit down and pen a masterpiece from start to finish is, I think, a mythical creature.
Writing with a plan is something like gardening with defined beds versus scattering seeds randomly. Creating a structure doesn't limit what can grow. It allows each element to flourish in relationship with the whole.
Love to free-write?
You can still follow your inspiration, but now you will see how your creative explorations are part of your larger vision.
When you can see how the pages you’re writing get you closer to completing your book, it’s that much easier to stay motivated.
If you struggle with where to start, you will always have a clear next step that reconnects you with your purpose instead of a blank page staring back at you.
What do you envision for your book?
Do you have all the pieces laid on the table or could you use some help gathering them?
In The Soul-Driven Author Book Incubator, we'll address the three main challenges that often keep powerful messages from reaching the page:
1. Clarity of purpose
2. Structure and flow
3. Nurture your writing practice
First, we'll clarify your book's purpose on three levels.
Many authors struggle because they haven't fully connected with their "why" both for themselves and their readers. To address this:
We'll explore who most needs to hear your message and how to speak directly to their hearts
We'll discover the unique gifts your experience and your perspective bring to the conversation
We'll craft a publishing and promotion plan for your book that aligns with your soul's purpose
With a clear path forward that energizes and inspires you,
your writing routine will begin to feel like a natural extension of the work you’re already doing in the world
.
The second aspect we'll plan is your book's structure and flow.
Many wisdom-keepers find themselves overwhelmed by all they want to share, unsure how to weave their stories and teachings into a coherent whole that serves their readers.
You will:
~ Map out a clear structure that guides your reader to follow their own heart and their intuition as they immerse themselves in your vision from one chapter to the next.
~ Find the perfect balance of storytelling and teaching so your reader understands what you’re saying with their whole being—heart, body, and mind.
~ Develop key themes and threads that weave throughout your book, tying your stories and teachings into one powerful, unified message.
Together, we will create a detailed outline that feels spacious enough for your creative muse to play in while providing the support you need to keep writing with confidence.
The third challenge we'll solve is maintaining a consistent writing practice.
Even the most inspired authors can struggle with making steady progress on their books. This is where the "incubator" aspect shines:
You will find your natural rituals and rhythms that allow creativity to flow
You will hold yourself to a reality-based accountability that comes from genuine connection and support
You will learn to recognize and work through common blocks that arise during the writing process
With these elements in place, you will make steady progress on your book while staying connected to your purpose and message.
Here's what we will create together
By the end of the program, you will have:
A clear understanding of who your readers are and what they need from you
Knowledge of the current publishing landscape and which path is best for your book
A competitive analysis showing where your book fits in the market
A complete chapter-by-chapter outline
A detailed ~15 page book plan document (similar to what you would send to an agent or publisher, minus the sample chapters)
A writing schedule and accountability system
By the end of the program, you'll have everything you need to start writing with confidence.
Here's the breakdown:
First Private Session | Map Your Three Areas of Impact
What will your book do for you, your business, and your reader?
This is where we clarify the three key ingredients that keep you motivated, focused, and clear on what you're writing and why.
What becoming the author of this book will do for you personally - how the process changes you, the clarity you'll gain, what holding your finished book will mean
How the book fits into your business plan - establishing your expertise, opening new doors, attracting aligned clients, scaling your impact
What will change for your readers - the transformation they'll experience, the legacy you'll create
Group Sessions Week One | Get to Know Your Reader
How will you connect with your reader? How will they see you and relate to you? We'll explore who most needs your message and how to speak directly to their hearts.
Group Sessions Week Two | What Kind of Book Will It Be?
Discover the most effective way to combine your message and your story. Memoir? Self-help? There is no one-size method!
Group Sessions Week Three | Market Research (Fun!)
Knowing how you are going to sell your book really does make it easier to write.
Group Sessions Week Four | Take Your Reader on a Tour
Structure your book so that your reader follows you with full confidence in your ability to guide them to the answers they seek.
Final Private Session | Fine-Tune Your Book Plan
This is where I deliver your completed book plan.
I do the heavy lifting of outlining the structure for your book—work that takes authors weeks to complete on their own, if they can do it at all.
Your final one-on-one session is where I will deliver your completed book plan! We will fine-tune it together before you're off and running, writing your book.
This plan will have all the elements of a traditional book proposal, minus the sample chapters that you would send to an agent or publisher.
Once you've got your plan in hand, you can begin writing!
And no, I won't necessarly push you out of the nest.
Ongoing support and guidance can be arranged through one-on-one coaching sessions or twice weekly co-working sessions as you write.
