The Real Conversation

 

For four hours, we'll pull back the curtain on:

  • What actually happens when you write about trauma (hint: it's harder than you think)
  • The pages we almost didn't publish
  • What we've learned since our books came out that we would want you to know
  • How writing changed us personally

This isn't about rehashing what's already in the books. You can read those anytime. This is about:

  • Gabor sharing what it was like to write with his son Daniel
  • Bessel revealing why certain chapters were faced with criticism
  • Aimie explaining why I had to pace my writing to manage attachment insecurities

Why This Matters

You want the real story behind the writing. The messy parts. The human part.

We're finally talking about what usually stays hidden — the struggle of turning pain, stories and knowledge into pages that help others heal, the criticisms we get exposed to and the personal journey to bestselling author

A Note About the Event
I'll be your host throughout, facilitating these conversations and making sure we go beyond surface-level discussion.
Between the featured bestselling authors, I'll share practical tools, answer questions about publishing a book and test your knowledge of these three bestselling books.

I can't wait to have you experience this!
Dr. Aimie
