Main character energy isn’t about being the loudest person in the room or living some flawless, Hollywood(esque) lifestyle. It’s about choosing to be present in your own story — turning ordinary days into something worth remembering.
You know those cinematic moments in films when the music swells, the camera slows, and you feel the character is fully alive in that instant? You can make those moments for yourself.
Here’s how:

Make a playlist for your commute or morning routine — soundtrack your own life.
Wear your favorite outfit, even if it’s just for a grocery run.
Take yourself on a solo coffee date or dinner — no phone, just you and the moment.
Document a “day in the life” with photos, not for social media, but for you.
Your story isn’t waiting to start when you have more money, more time, or more confidence.
It’s happening right now.
And you get to decide how it’s told.
If you’re ready to step into that kind of energy, you’ll love meeting the women in my books. They’re flawed, brave, messy, and real — and they’ll remind you that you don’t have to be perfect to be the hero of your own story.
