Hello, beautiful souls. Welcome back to the Angels and Awakening podcast. I'm your host Julie Jansis and today it's just being you. It is a solo and I'm recording this for the first time solo for YouTube.

So I'm really excited. Today we are talking about the book because exciting news. It is November 11th, 2021 and the book is out today. Friends, if you have dreamt of writing a book, you know what an energetic kind of sigh of relief and excitement this is. Friends, since I was like 14 years old or maybe even younger, my mom's been telling me saying, you know, you're going to

write a book one day, you're going to write a book one day. And I had to tell you words of faith are really funny, right? Because that's what that is when you build somebody up with words of faith, you speak faith into them. A lot of times people don't believe you at first. And that's what happened with my mom and I. So she would say all the time, Julie, you're going to write a book. You're going to write books one day. And I'd be like, you are crazy woman. That is never happening. And I'd

not believe her. And I couldn't see it. But she kept repeating it over and over and over and over and over. That I got to the point where I was like, OK, yeah, I could do this. And in my 20s, then I go to God. And I'm like, where's the book, right? And for anybody who's out there that wants to write the book, I knew that the book topic would come in divine time. And it did.

Well, January of this year, spirit said, now's the time to write the book. Here's the topic of the book. You're going to go through one mess. You're going to go through how to communicate with your angels.

And that is the first book. And they said, start writing, start waking up in the mornings, like 5 a.m. and just start writing so many pages every day.

So that's what I did. I would wake up at about 5 a.m. And by about 5 20, I'm at my computer. I'm writing. And I would write until about 9 o'clock every morning.

And then sometimes come back and do an hour or two later in the day to kind of maybe fine tune what I was writing before the process of writing the book. And I'm not going to bore you a lot with this. I promise I want to dive in deep to like the yummy details of the book.

And everything that's in there and kind of gave you a deep dive into that. But the process of writing the book because I did self publish spirit said you don't need to find a publisher publish your first book yourself.

And then the publisher will come to you. And that's actually kind of something that's in the process of happening right now, which is really fascinating for the second book.

But the first book was like what do they call that like trial through fire.

So everything that could go wrong with like the process did along the way.

And I realized because my egoic mind before when I would talk to people who are in publishing or published books and they'd be like, yeah, it's about a two year process, you know, from the time that you start writing the book until the book comes out.

And I was like, you know, my ego I just think it no way like we can get this out in eight months, you know, we can probably get this on six months.

I was so wrong. And I learned to humbly take a step back and check my ego on that because I was so so wrong. I get now it's a total hit.

It completely is a two year process. And it's just because of the steps that you have to go through. If you think about like making a dinner from scratch, right.

Like we have a chef friend chef summer who I acknowledged in the she's been on the podcast before, but she won my friends, I put her in the book.

And she calls it me some plus like you get out all your stuff. That's your me some plus. So you get out your chicken breast and you get out your seasonings and the little bowls and you get out the herbs that you need to cut up and you get out the lemons and you get all of your ingredients that right.

What do you do then you go get out the skillet to cook the chicken and you pour in the olive oil and then you maybe fry up this chicken a little bit.

And then you start to cook the veggies in the oven and it's this whole process of making dinner right so that the all the things that you're making come out hot at the same time so that everybody eats this warm hot food at the same time.

And I got to tell you friends I'm so excited about the end result of this book because I wanted to not like give you some little you know 70 page mini book that some people self published.

This is a 232 page thick it's eight and a half by 10 I think is the size of the book or eight by 10.
