Teresa Funke is the author of six award-winning works of fiction set in World War II. She is the owner of Victory House Press, and she successfully produces and markets her own books. The fun nuggets from the interview are: 1) Define what "success" means to you 2) Follow the the 3 P's of publishing (practice, patience, persistence) 3) Have fun- writing and marketing is a constant cycle that you must keep up (prizes are a great incentive if they make you happy!) 4) Set realistic goals- daily, weekly, monthly; and primary and secondary
Golden Alignment with Dr. Beth Golden Radio Show Teresa Funke has built a 26-year career on the notion that thinking outside the box means following your passion and bringing your unique talents to your workplace and community. She believes that all of us, no matter how “ordinary” can be the sparks that start a movement, whether we mean to or not. This notion was enforced by her work as an author interviewing the ordinary men and women who contributed in profound ways to the war effort during World War II and whose memories were the inspirations for Teresa’s seven books about the war. Teresa has built an arts-based business that operates on the assumption that artists, businesses, civic groups, and individuals can collaborate to bring new programs into communities that benefit those in need. She encourages others to nurture and protect their creative and innovative ideas until they can bring them to fruition. And to understand that there is no such thing as failure. Teresa Funke embodies the modern artist/entrepreneur. She is the owner of Teresa Funke & Company and Victory House Press and the award-winning author of seven novels for adults and children based on true stories from WWII including Dancing in Combat Boots and War on a Sunday Morning. Her articles, essays, and short stories have been featured in numerous publications. She is also a nationwide speaker offering keynotes and presentations and a popular writer’s coach who developed the Self-Publishing Blue Print. Her innovative programs and boundary-pushing talks prove that she is a true thought leader, one who challenges us to change our view of how life and business should be led, and how each and every “ordinary” person can be a catalyst for change. www.teresafunke.com teresa@teresafunke.com ~ More about Golden Alignment with Dr. Beth Golden ~ Have you ever hit that sweet spot where everything’s going right, doors open and opportunities magically appear? That is what Golden Alignment is all about. Dr. Beth Golden loves to both play in that Golden space and teach others how to get there and stay there! On some shows Dr. Golden will interview guests, varying in age and expertise, who will share stories about the before and after of their Golden Alignment moments. Dr. Beth Golden was inspired to create this show when she listened to a talk about “What Does My Future Self Know? By Christine McIver. It became abundantly clear that she was NOT in alignment with what her soul was calling her to do. Fortunately, she was only a few ticks away from her magical Golden Alignment and this show is an outflowing of that alignment. Dr. Beth Golden is a Life Coach, Author, Speaker and Radio Show Host. With doctorates in Metaphysics and Divinity. Her genius lies in teaching people how to align with their golden purpose. The foundational principles of her signature program are: Loving yourself; Living in gratitude and Allowing the Universe to move on your behalf. https://bethgoldenphd.com/ To get more of Golden Alignment with Dr. Beth Golden be sure to visit the archives page for replays of all her shows here: https://www.inspiredchoicesnetwork.com/podcast/golden-alignment-dr-beth-golden/
