Author Spotlight
Kingdom Business Network & Beyond The Book Media had the pleasure to interview Adria Marshall as our Kingdom Scribes featured Author. Adria recently published her book, “Unstoppable: A journey to supernatural productivity”, and we got the chance to sit with her and ask a few questions about her new book, the writing and publishing process, and why she chose Beyond The Book Media to help her along the journey. Beyond The Book Media transforms faith-based business owners into becoming the AUTHORITY in their niche, and Adria is another example of what that looks like. Please find the full interview below.
BTBM: Please tell us about yourself.
Adria: I’m Adria Marshall – Jesus-follower, wife, Mother-of-3, Business Owner, Engineer, Virgo, and Gardener.
BTBM: Tell us about your book and who your book is for.
Adria: Anyone looking to continuously improve holistically.
BTBM: What are the top three takeaways you would like your readers to walk away with?
Adria:
- There’s less right v wrong than you think.
- God has created us and the universe in ways to make our lives easier – we should tap into that
- Love is all around us
BTBM: What inspired you to write your book?
Adria: I’m a hard-worker and productivity junkie, but wasn’t getting as much done as I like consistently – the tips just weren’t sticking. God is orderly and systematic, so I knew that there had to be a better way to become our most productive selves. Compound that with my honest findings that many Christians are so quick to dismiss – some ancient Eastern techniques really do work. This made me curious – so I wanted to learn the science behind them and what God had to say – learning that all of these things are beautifully connected is magic that I want to share with the world.
BTBM: Tell us a little bit about your writing process. Do you use a unique method? What did the beginning stages entail for you?
Adria: I stew and stew and stew. By the time I put pen to paper, the book is already written in my head.
BTBM: In terms of publishing, what was that process like for you? And why did you choose BTBM?
Adria: BTBM came across my desk quite by accident, but there are no coincidences. It was a great process – I felt very supported the entire time. There were bumps in the road – as there are in life- but, together, we handled them with grace and singularity of purpose.
BTBM: What advice would you give to authors or even entrepreneurs wanting to start or those in the process of writing a book?
Adria: Just start!
BTBM: What products/services do you want to offer alongside your book for promotional purposes?
Adria: My podcast, Leaf Nodes, and social media.
BTBM: Where can people find your book and support you?
Adria: @iamadriamarshall on Instagram. @adriamarshall on TikTok. iamadriamarshall.com. LeafNodes podcast on YouTube, Spotify, and Apple.
BTBM: What is next for you and your brand? What can we look forward to in the coming months or years?
Adria: When the due date for my planner got pushed back, I made the decision to turn it into a Disc planner, which makes it customizable. Next up are all sorts of custom options so that you can truly make your planner your own.
