You know you have a book inside you, but will you ever get it out?
Join the Birth a Book Membership to change your life and the lives of others by turning your dream of writing your book into a reality.
In a community of people writing books, its so much easier to increase your impact and income, share your stories, and use the urgency you feel to write, publish and promote your book.
With the guidance of experienced coaches, learn how to share your experiences, knowledge and expertise in a way that actually gets you the outcomes you want.
You're ready to make your valuable contribution to improving the world.
You’ve gone through a lot to get where you are with the knowledge and insight you have gathered. That's why no one else can write your story, your message, your book.
Others are writing their books and it's painful sitting on the sidelines when you know it's your turn.
You know being a published author will increase your credibility and visibility - and that's scary. BUT it's scarier to think you might never muster the courage to do it.
Wouldn't it be amazing if you got the guidance and support you need to get your book done and effectively promoted?
So Why Haven't You Written It Yet?
Is It Because...
You’re worried it'll take too long?
You don’t know where to start, let alone how to write and finish it?
You don’t know how you’ll find the time to write a book, given your already crazy schedule?
You’re not sure if you’d ever finish a book once you started it?
You’re don't really consider yourself a writer.
You hate writing alone!
You don't know the first think about getting a book published and,
even if you did, would anyone want to read it?
I Get It! I've Been There...
...And so have hundreds of my students, mentees and clients who are now published authors.
I’m Dorothy, I too dreamt of writing a successful book and had every one of those problems, concerns and fears...
After enduring and healing from a decade of diseases and disasters, I started a holistic health career that I loved. I longed to write a book to share my experiences and hard-earned knowledge with the world so I could help others.
I also needed to create more financial and time freedom for myself and my family.
I was terrified I'd have to go back to a career that had been killing me long before the decade of disasters nearly did, to earn enough money just to survive...let alone thrive.
So I went on a quest, took courses, hired mentors, read every book on how to write a book.
I wished there was one community with experienced teachers who taught me what I needed to know to succeed.
I never found it. It took me YEARS of searching to finally figure it all out.
I did it! I wrote my book, 'Love Food that Loves You Back', a best-selling book that changed everything in my life!
Some of the benefits were what I'd hoped for, like more income and clients.
But what I didn't expect is that my book became as impressive a credential as an MD or PhD.
I also didn't realize how many doors it would open.
I got an abundance of service opportunities, new ventures and friendships, and a ton of new interesting life adventures.
I had NO IDEA what a game changer my book would be for my life and career!
My life as a published author has become so exciting that I leap out of bed to greet each day!
When a local yoga studio asked me to teach others who wanted to write books, I discovered I had created the holistic system that I'd wanted when I was writing my book. It worked for others too!
Since then I've mentored hundreds of therapists, yoga instructors, teachers, and health and wellness practitioners to write life-changing books and change their lives in the process.
I've taught extensively in NYC, in retreats across the US, and now LIVE online for you.
If you want to author your heart-centered, persuasive book that attracts readers, transforms lives, and find your clients and raving fans...
then my

Now you can stop worrying, give up the search and use all that energy to WRITE THE BOOK!

Frequently Asked Questions
I believe human connection is the key to our success!
I was miserable and lonely when I wrote my book. I longed for a teachers I could talk to and a community to support me. I also wished there was a place to go to meet others from time to time. The Birth a Book System solves these problems for you. I offer LIVE classes on Zoom, and a community who interact and see each other online. In addition, you will be invited to live events and retreats to continue our book adventures (when appropriate). Members will always enjoy special discounts!
No, absolutely not! Not to worry, you'll learn plenty from Clementina Esposito our in house writing professor. You can also avail yourself of her professional editing services if necessary. And, we also have a team of vetted professionals, including copy editors, layout specialists, and cover designers to help you create, publish, and launch a book you're proud to promote.
Fiction writers have used the course to great success but it is not comprehensive for all the skills they need. The course focuses on a large category best described as creative nonfiction. Our focus will be offering solutions to problems using our own (or our clients) personal experiences and stories.
It depends on where you start, how dedicated you are, how much time you allocate to your project, and how much support you seek. Members have successfully published in as little as 5 months, 8 to 12 months is average, and some of you will need more time and that is OK!
That is fine. Discovery is an important part of the writing process and surrounding yourself with people doing what you want to do is key. Many members come to class to write one type of book only to discover another far more compelling book is theirs to write. That's the power of community!
The membership starts when you register. You gain immediate access to our portal which is already populated with classes. And, our classes are ongoing. Check the calendar for the next LIVE class and attend! Plus, be on the lookout for our special onboarding classes for new members. We look forward to seeing you there!
We are always worried when we are about to do something big. Congratulations, that is a good sign. Feel the fear. Do it anyway. See you in class!
