I’m an award-winning artist, a prolific author and the Amazon #1 bestselling author of over twenty non-fiction books, including, How to Find Your Passion and Purpose, Mid-Life Career Rescue, Bounce, The Prosperous Author: The Millionaire Mindset, and The Art of Success.As Mollie Mathews, I also have fun writing romance novels, including Flight of Passion, Love in Venice, and The Italian Billionaire’s Christmas Bride.Because I love what I do, it doesn’t feel like work at all. In fact, just the opposite—but If I’m not careful I forget to look out for me. I forget to eat. I forget to stretch my legs, I forget to program my mindset for success—and all the other health behaviors that sustain my writing and creative career.Stress, burnout, anxiety, and depression descend and before long I doubt I am an artist.
