About this listen

Today’s guest is a seasoned book coach, ghostwriter, and publishing consultant with over 30 years of experience guiding aspiring authors from concept to completion. Known as the Literary Midwife, she has supported countless writers, nonfiction, fiction, and poetry alike, in finding their voice, clarifying their message, and sharing their stories with the world. Named one of LA Weekly’s “Top 15 Book Coaches to Watch in 2023,” she brings a powerful mix of industry knowledge, creative intuition, and deep empathy to her work. Whether it’s navigating the publishing process, developing a marketing strategy, or helping clients overcome the fear of being seen and heard, she shows up as a trusted partner every step of the way. With a background in traditional publishing and university-level instruction, she specializes in the genres of personal growth, leadership, well-being, and memoir. But beyond her credentials, what sets her apart is her belief that our ideas choose us—and that it’s our responsibility to bring those messages to life. Please join me in welcoming Kathy Sparrow.
