Colette Mason is a self-professed “massive nerd” — about music, about books, about no longer being shackled to the corporate world, and about bringing bestsellers out of budding authors.
She runs Let’s Tell Your Story, a publishing company that assists business owners in transforming their extensive experience and wealth of wisdom into bestselling books. She works privately with her clients, from helping them create their outlines to publishing the finished product and ensuring they get the proper credit.
Colette joins me to share how she manages to cope with stress, monotony, negative thoughts, bad outcomes, work that she doesn’t like, and other unpleasant catalysts and scenarios. She also shares the tools and strategies she uses to maximise her rest and relaxation during the rare moments she actually gets to enjoy them.
“Just crack on and do what needs doing. Just because someone sat next to you doesn’t make the work any more difficult or time-consuming, or easy, or whatever.” – Colette Mason
