People write books for all kinds of reasons. Some write to teach what they know, some write to tell made-up stories, some write to promote their business, and some write because they’re passionate about a particular topic… just to name a few reasons.

On this episode, I’m excited to feature a conversation with a friend of mine who’s written a book to tell her story of surviving cancer. Her name is Helen Bullen, and we’re talking about her fantastic new book, Agnes, Bea, Cancer and Me: Life with a Breast Cancer Diagnosis. A powerful, humorous, kindly blunt, inspirational and moving true story of strength and resilience.

Helen is a kindly blunt cheerleader of all small business owners. She is also a retired Osteopath and former owner of a successful Multi-healthcare brick-and-mortar clinic. She runs The HBClub (group mentoring), HBInspired (VIP Mastermind), and HBBox (luxury stationery boxes) and holds HBretreats in both the UK and abroad. 

Helen also has online courses to help as many business owners as she can. Her previous work as a qualified lecturer led her to many senior teaching/examining roles both in the UK and Europe. Over the years, she has won multiple awards for both her clinic business and her business acumen.

I’ve gotten to know Helen over the last couple of years as fellow members of Honorée Corder’s Empire Builders Mastermind. I can attest that Helen is a fireball of energy, yet also a kind, empathetic, and brave human being.

In our conversation, Helen and I talk about her memoir, why she structured it as a diary, her process of writing, how the book has changed her, and her tips for authors.
