From imposter syndrome and borrowed self-belief to bravery in self-publishing, this conversation explores what it means to write with purpose and create measurable impact. They also discuss women in the literary world, motherhood and writing, niche audiences, the stigma around self-publishing, and why community matters more than ever. Topics include: self-publishing, women authors, faith-based books, memoir and self-help, imposter syndrome, author courage, motherhood and creativity, and building impact through storytelling. 🎙️ Episode 25 – Makeda Yasenlul: Bravery, Bigger Than Divorce, and Writing with Impact This week’s episode is about courage — the courage to write, to publish, and to believe your story matters. Makeda Yasenlul is a mother, writer, and entrepreneur whose book Bigger Than Divorce grew out of lived experience and a deep desire to help other women heal. What began as journaling through grief became something more — a roadmap for women navigating divorce with faith, resilience, and purpose. We talk about imposter syndrome (including her teenage “African Harry Potter” moment), borrowed self-belief, and what it really takes to self-publish with intention. Makeda calls herself a “go-getter with a mission,” and in this conversation, you’ll understand exactly why. We also dive into: • Turning personal pain into purposeful impact • When you realise your story isn’t just yours — it’s shared • Women, motherhood, and writing within real-life responsibilities • The bravery of self-publishing without asking permission • Why niche audiences deserve powerful books too • The stigma around self-publishing — and why it needs to change • Community, courage, and backing yourself And yes — we also talk about serial library card max-outers and raising the next generation of book lovers. ✨ Memorable Moment: “We are brave. It takes courage to write — and even more courage to publish it yourself.” Makeda reminds us that your story does not need external approval to matter. 💻 Connect with Makeda Yasenlul Website: https://makedayasenlul.com Instagram:   / makedayasenlul   LinkedIn:   / makeda-yasenlul   📌 Support the Show If this episode resonated with you: ✅ Follow Unfiltered Voices on Spotify https://open.spotify.com/show/7u9IqKZ... ✅ Subscribe on YouTube    / @writeangles1104   ✅ Share this episode with a woman who needs to hear that her story matters ✅ Leave a rating or review — it helps indie voices grow
