This week Andrew talks with New York Times bestselling author Allison Pataki. Allison began her career working in news and quickly realized that it wasn’t the right job for her. She started writing fiction in her free time after work & eventually turned her creative outlet into a whole new career. Today, she’s a bestselling author & the author of more than 10 books. In this conversation, Allison shares a behind-the-scenes look at how she changed paths and built her career as a bestselling author. You’ll hear powerful ideas on turning a passion into a profession, growing through feedback, overcoming creative blocks, & so much more.
