The Power of Authentic Storytelling

Publisher Linda Joy shares “At Inspired Living Publishing and our series of women’s co-authored books the term “authentic storytelling” is used to describe the styles and types of stories I strive to share through our publishing projects. I have always been drawn to the personal, intimate stories of women who have not only lived through unique and sometimes painful life experiences, but who came out the other side armed with the wisdom, love, insights and heart of the warrior woman.” Read Publisher Linda Joy’s full introduction to Embracing Your Authentic Self .
