Jenya Legin 🚢💜

maybe, secretly, you share my dream as well?

last night, I was on the phone with my partner, crying after my last youtube live because I felt silly & awkward putting myself out there. logged in today to see this comment from a total stranger 🙂 no excuses, more videos to come!!

just passed page 100 in my book manuscript. 1 month ago, this was only a working title & an outline. 2 months ago, this was only a loose set of notes. 3 months ago, it was only an idea. trust the daily actions, especially those so small they barely feel worth it.

just finished my first youtube live!! had a great time and even greater comments😚

@MatemvuZai Thank you Zaithwa 💜💜💜

@JenyaLegin1 Jenya, proud of you!! A true example of 'build and they will come'

#30DBC Day 22 took 20 minutes last week to create the minimum viable landing page to preorder my book. opened my analytics today to see that 4 people had already preordered! the first money I ever made on the internet, just from a title + people believing in my vision 🥹🥹🥹

@TheSaraKeeney thank you Sara! your support means the world to me right now! 🥹🥹🥹

@JenyaLegin1 It's a work-in-progress right now, but the end result is going to be so good! I signed up!

@TheSaraKeeney Dear Sara, due to the minimal nature of the LP I was too embarrassed to post it publicly yet 😹 but here you go jenyalegin.ck.page/products/preor… thanks so much for asking & your interest!

@JenyaLegin1 Where can we find that landing page?

I fail so many times I set daily goals, weekly goals, monthly goals And don't always meet them. If this were 2020, I would be beating myself up. Not anymore. I discovered this secret: The ability to start again To learn from failure Is the most valuable trait. Learn the art of starting again

told my father I'm writing a book about childhood trauma healing (You can see why this might be awkward). he nodded, frowning. then told me that I'm doing the right thing & to "write it down for [my] soul". 🥲🥹 #30DBC Day 14

writing hack for when I struggle with motivation: explain my book to someone who's genuinely interested, watch their eyes light up & remember that I'm writing something that could change someone's life. #30DBC Day 11

@AndreaPerino1 woohoo! thats my plan too! rest during the summer so I'm recharged & motivated by September!

Wow, the first half of 2024 just flew by! If you, like me follow a bunch of creators, you might have seen them posting about their goals for Q3. Maybe you've even seen posts about how they want to use the summer to get ahead of everyone else who's enjoying their lives on the beach instead of working. Not me, sorry! Yes, I love to take action. Yes, I love to get results, and get them fast, too. But those who've known me for a while know that I believe in taking time to rest and recharge, and to restore motivation and creativity for all the great things ahead. So this summer, you won't see a lot of productivity posts here. Instead, you'll get your regular reminder to take it easy and enjoy life. And then, in September, I want to see you all pumped up in my PhD finisher's challenge! 90-days. 1 goal. Writing up that PhD. Sign up now, secure a sweet early bird rate and then go and enjoy your summer 😎 finish.andreaperino.com

#30DBC Day 8: got to copy & paste 4k words of notes into my document. That's almost 40 pages when formatted as a print book! small continuous steps → progress over time → success

#30DBC Day 7: back to writing after half a week of work travels. almost got derailed by mind gremlins telling me “Well, you didn’t start this off perfectly, so you might as well quit.” 😈 But nothing ever starts off perfectly & that it’s worth doing anyway. title + outline ✅

got 2 business trips ahead of me — 1 to teach my class, 1 to give my first paid lecture 🙀 doing the unthinkable: using the time at home before leaving for the train to...rest! when this would be a perfectly good time block for some additional work! sacrilege

#30DBC Day 2: pondering how to honor the embodied experience that's trauma healing via the intellectual, head-heavy medium of a book. maybe I can create an accompanying youtube playlist with meditations & embodiment exercises? do you have any other thoughts?

💜hey X fam, I'm back & doing @kellycwilde's 30-Day Book Writing Challenge! My book is a 12-week program for holistic childhood trauma healing. I’m most excited about re-discovering the tools that changed my life & introducing them to you. Stay tuned! ☺️💜

@sandra_sobanska @kellycwilde omg what a title! this already speaks to me. excited to be on this journey with you & see what lessons you'll share 💓

today I'm starting a 30-day book writing challenge hosted by @kellycwilde 👩‍💻 my best sense of what book wants to come through is A Little Book Of Feminine Wisdom. I also recently found out that my grandmother was writing a book and never published it which makes it extra special

#30DBC Day 1: takeaways from clarity call with @kellycwilde: 1) when asking people for support, take charge & tell them how to help you. 2) shift the narrative from "I don't believe in myself" to "Where do I believe in myself?" 3) I'm the ultimate authority on my own story.

woke up absolutely demolished on Monday. decided to take a mental health day. weirdly... ...my entire social network didn't abandon me... ...my career wasn't destroyed... ...the world didn't stop turning.... ...just because I chose to rest when I needed to.
