Your story has the power to heal - not when it's perfect, but when it's told with truth.
If you've ever felt a deep pull to write your story but questioned whether you were "ready enough" or "qualified enough," this book is for you.
In Write It Anyway, holistic author and coach Caroline Bakker - creator of The Healing Journey and Thriving Naturally with ADHD - guides you step by step through the process of transforming your lived experience into a book that changes lives, including your own. This isn't a dry "how-to" manual. It's a compassionate, practical roadmap for sensitive, purpose-driven women who want to share their story, self-publish confidently, and build something meaningful from their healing.
Drawing on her own path through ADHD, PMDD, motherhood, and burnout, Caroline shows that writing a book can become one of the most powerful tools for self-discovery and service. Inside, you'll discover:
- How to find the deeper message behind your story - the lesson, not just the timeline - so your book resonates on a soul level.
- The difference between a memoir, a self-help book, and a healing book (and why most transformational authors write a blend of all three).
- Practical structure and workflow tips for outlining, editing, and staying consistent - even when life feels chaotic.
- How to overcome fear, perfectionism, and procrastination and finally finish your manuscript.
- What to include in your publishing plan, from ISBNs, copyright, and formatting to printing proofs, comparing platforms, and setting your price.
- The power of proof copies - why printing your book before release is the most important creative checkpoint.
- How to grow your author platform authentically, using your truth, not a marketing mask.
- Ways to turn your book into a business, whether that's coaching, speaking, or creating digital offerings.
Caroline shares her personal experience of writing and self-publishing from her home in Dubai - balancing motherhood, ADHD, and healing - while building a thriving global community through her meditations, books, and courses. Her journey proves that you don't need a publisher, a large following, or perfect clarity to start.
You don't need permission to write your story. You just need the courage to begin.
With every chapter, Write It Anyway walks you through both the inner and outer process of authorship - from managing your energy and nervous system as a creative, to the technical details of formatting, printing, and launching your book into the world.
You'll learn how to transform self-doubt into creative fuel, how to edit without losing the soul of your story, and how to publish a book that looks professional and feels deeply authentic. Most importantly, you'll discover that your healing and your writing are part of the same journey.
Write it messy. Write it scared. Write it true. But most of all - write it anyway.
