This is your year. It’s time to WRITE & GROW RICH!
If you’re reading this, you have a BIG VISION!
You may know you have a first or next book in you, a calling to share your message in a bigger way, on a bigger literal or metaphorical stage . . .
But there is always so much to do: running your business, taking care of the people in your life, trying to squeeze some self care in there as well . . .
You’ve tried things to make a bigger impact before (social media, writing, speaking) and they haven’t created the results you wanted.
Even though you’ve evolved, become more masterful, more tuned in, you worry it’s not enough.
Your bigger dreams get the fumes at the end of the day, if they get any attention at all.
And in certain moments, you may wonder if anyone would ever read what you write or watch your videos or come hear you speak anyway.
I mean, there are already so many people out there doing similar things – and they’ve been doing it longer and are doing it bigger and they’re younger and on TikTok and have 100,000 followers so is this bigger vision even worth it???. . .
⚠️ WARNING! If any of these thoughts have swirled through your mind, you’re likely about to smash your next glass ceiling and your well intentioned brain is trying to pull you back to the comfort zone, the familiar, to what you’ve been doing and have always done!
The great news is that you’re here and are poised for a BREAK THROUGH!
In case you don’t know me yet, my name is Sara Connell, and after a book saved my life 17 years ago, I used my second chance to make a contribution as a best-selling author.
Then I devoted my life to helping women and men with a story to share change- and even save- lives by becoming bestselling authors and speakers.
The vow I made all those years ago has created a magical life. It took me to Oprah, The New York Times, Forbes, the TEDx stage, and many other exciting places.
It also inspired me to open Thought Leader Academy, where I enjoy the gift of coaching thousands of amazing authors, entrepreneurs, experts, and leaders who are changing the lives of millions through their bestselling books and talks.
I’m sharing this with you because, after living the life I’ve lived, and working with the people I’ve worked with, I know that if you have the calling to write, to speak, and to share your mission…
Then not only are you capable and worthy, but someone out there right now needs your message… the one only you can share.
Your calling isn’t there by coincidence.
It’s there because you’re meant to make a BIG IMPACT on the world and there are people out there right now, waiting on your message.

Here’s what’s happening with clients who used what you will learn at this retreat:
It’s your time now!
If you’re reading this, I believe it’s because your story is needed.
You are capable, worthy, and important beyond words.
What’s more- I believe you are the only one who can bring the message you are here to bring.
There is someone sitting somewhere right now who needs your story, your insight, your vision.
Not mine. Not Oprah’s. Not Warren Buffett’s.
YOURS.
I say that because 17 years ago, a book from someone I didn’t know and had never heard of saved my life.
Because one woman shared her story, I was able to change mine.
Make no mistake, your story has that same power to change lives…
But only if you get it into the world and tell people where to find it.
Your mission, message, and audience are waiting!
