Suicide Prevention Through Writing with Deshaun Williams: Plus Amazon Best Seller Advice

Dropping GEMS With LaMonique Mac: The Authorpreneurship Podcast

Author and Leadership Coach Deshaun Williams talks to us about the very sensitive subject of suicide prevention through writing. In this interview, he gives us an account of his own experience with suicidal thoughts and how he overcame them and wrote his book The Greatness Within.

During our interview, Deshaun revealed to me that he would like to become a best seller. That inspired me to give him an impromptu consultation on techniques I've used to become an Amazon Best Seller in my genre.

Deshaun Williams is no stranger to podcasts. In fact, he has one of his own called Dose of Empowerment in which he encourages leadership in young men. Deshaun's Podcast knowledge on branding and analytics is extremely helpful to other podcasters and we will dive into that in a subsequent interview with him coming soon. He's also featured in Volume 1 of GEMS Magazine giving us insight into how to get your podcast show distributed to Amazon Music and Pandora.
