Do you have a story within you, a message waiting to be shared, and expertise that can transform lives? You have a lifetime of wisdom, but getting it onto the page feels like a battle against the noise.

You're here because you're ready to get noticed — personally or professionally.

Perhaps you’ve dreamt of writing your book, but you’re held back by the weight of a "Second Act":

  • Identity Mark Zero™: Feeling lost in the transition from a long career to what’s next.

  • The "Someday" Manuscript: Having 30+ years of notes but no roadmap to structure them.

  • Energy Burnout: Wanting to share your message without sacrificing your peace or your rhythm.

  • The Visibility Gap: Knowing you have expertise that can transform lives, but feeling the "creeping doubt" of imposter syndrome.

You're not alone.

You aren’t just looking to write a book; you’re looking to plant your flag. Whether you want to showcase your expertise, promote your products or services, launch or grow your business or side business, or stand out in a crowded market, a book is your most powerful tool.

I’m Mary Kay, and I’ve been exactly where you are.

After a 37-year corporate communications career, I hit Identity Mark Zero™—a season defined by profound burnout and grief. In that space, I discovered Selective Clarity™: the essential practice of remembering who you are before deciding what comes next.

That clarity gave me the courage to leave the corporate world, pursue my writing dreams, and become a present caregiver for my mum. Now, I use my experience as a former Corporate Communications expert and Certified Life Coach to help you do the same as your Book Coach.

I specialize in empowering thoughtful professionals to distill their lived experience into a book they are truly proud of. I provide the structure guidance, technical Amazon KDP guidance, and mindset support to ensure your message lands with power—while protecting your professional integrity and your personal rhythm.

Your book is more than just words on a page; it's your legacy. Let's build it together.
