      Preface

      Some people know me as The Words Lady™ and if I was interviewed on the radio, they would open up with the fact that I’ve helped nearly 100 entrepreneurs get the story out of their belly and become best selling authors.  I help them create a revenue stream based on their story and what they do with their story. My authors have been on Tedx, TV, and radio and have had book signings across the world. They’ve closed $2M deals after their success as an author and reached hundreds of people internationally with their message.

      But what you might not know is there was a time where I thought I could outrun my own story. 

      It was back in early 1989. It was the second semester of my senior year of high school and another potentially horrid night with my mother. My dad wasn’t home which meant my buffer was gone.

      Now my mom stood five foot four inches but when she screamed I could swear she was 6’9".  Though she weighed probably 100 pounds, somehow she seemed like she had the muscles and the strength, when she was angry with me, of a body builder 4 times my size.

      Don't get me wrong—I love my mother. But for some reason I reminded my mother of all of her greatest failures. For some reason I reminded my mother of everything she couldn’t do or have. I don't know whether it was because I had her eyes. I don't know whether it was because I have her fiery personality, but all I know was that night she had me in a headlock. And every now and again, I boldly put her in one too.

      She yanked my hair and I yanked hers back and she grabbed my arm so hard it left a handprint shaped bruise. I got away and I ran up the stairs and I said, I'm done. I'm done. I’m so done.

      I furiously packed my things and like a studious Asian, I packed my school books because of course I would be going to school the next day and my contact lens solution. I failed to pack my underwear!

      For some reason I found a bungee cord in my closet. I hooked it to one leg of my canopy. I tied my sheets to it. Then strung it out the window. And just so you know – it’ s not like the movies where when you gracefully go down the side of a building like boing boing boing boing boing.  With a bungee cord you just land—DOINK. 

      But don’t worry. I was OK. I saw the light of a gas station in the distance and somehow I ran there. I don’t remember how I even got there.  I used the pay phone to call a friend to pick me up and I vowed I would never go back.

      But the words kept going through my head –it was that story I thought I was outrunning. It replayed over and over.

      You're not going to amount to anything. 

      You’re worthless.

      Lay down on the floor and die.

      I wish I never had you.

      You're not enough.

      Once I became successful I actually didn't want to tell anyone that story. In my culture, it would shame the family name.  But since then, amidst all tears and confusion of the Why did I have to go through that? I realized that you can turn your pain and your mess into your message when you can bring value and purpose to the things you’ve gone through ... you can become the wounded changemaker and I became committed to helping others do just that. You can become the way shower. See, I first had to learn how to embrace my story.  Then I could teach others how to make a best seller out of theirs.

      Introduction:

      Who Are You to Write a Book?

      Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn’t do than by the ones you did do.

      - H.Jackson Brown Jr., P.S. I Love You

      Growing up in an Asian household, education and music were a huge part of life. If my sister and I weren’t studying, we were playing the piano. Most everything else was considered a waste of time. Now don’t feel sorry for me, I did go outside to play sometimes, but most of the time I stayed indoors.

      In order to avoid getting in trouble or being assigned extra piano time, I kept my nose in fiction books from the library. Every week I went to the public library, checked out the maximum of 10 books and hastily returned home to read. My favorite place to read was sitting sideways in the yellow velvet living room armchair by the front window. Right outside the window, past the porch was a pink cherry blossom tree that I would gaze out at while I imagined the characters in the books I was reading.

      After a while, I read the whole entire library. From Are You There God? It’s Me, Margaret to Anne Frank’s Diary to Little Women and Around the World in 80 Days, I enjoyed being able to see the world and go on adventures without ever leaving the comfort of that armchair.

      From that time, I dreamt that I would one day be an author. It seemed so glamorous, fun and exciting. As I married and had kids, I imagined being the grandma in a rocking chair telling stories that the grandkids would hang on. Whenever I read a story to my children, it was always with gusto, different voices per character and pauses for emphasis. One of my boys likes the theatrical nature of my reading better than the other.

      As my 40’s came, I was still thinking about writing that book one day. Then 45 came and it
