Frequently asked
- Is a 15-hour immersion more effective than traditional hourly therapy?
- Yes, according to Keira B., the immersion format prevents the 'cutoff' experienced in weekly one-hour sessions. This allowed her to peel back multiple layers of trauma consecutively, resulting in progress she equated to ten years of traditional therapy. — Keira B.
- Can Transformative Listening help with the pressure of being a high-achieving single mother?
- Keira B. found that the practice alleviated the 'tremendous amount of pressure' she felt while managing five children, 15 employees, and hundreds of clients. It provided a space where others could 'hold' her intensity, which she had previously carried alone. — Keira B.
- How do I know if I should try Transformative Listening?
- Keira suggests that if you feel inspired to go, your soul has already agreed to it. She notes that while the experience cannot be fully explained, it must be experienced once for the realization of safety and support to 'come online.' — Keira B.
- Is Book Launchers worth it for first-time authors with no platform?
- Yes. Tierra Duncan started with no social media presence or website. Book Launchers helped her build a YouTube channel, Instagram, and website, while providing the credibility needed to secure podcast guest spots and TV appearances. — Tierra
- How does Book Launchers handle the complexity of self-publishing?
