Nadya's Journey to Consistency and Focus
Overview:
Nadya is a fiction author and ghostwriter who initially struggled with consistency and focus in her writing career. Despite being highly capable of completing tasks, she often found herself overwhelmed and lacked a clear direction for her goals. After working with Jessica Barna, Nadya experienced significant changes in her productivity, consistency, and overall approach to her career.
Before Working with Jessica:
Nadya’s primary challenge was maintaining consistency and having a clear focus. She often found herself jumping from one idea to another, without a concrete plan to guide her actions. As Nadya explains,
Her lack of clear goals made it difficult for her to make significant progress in her projects, leading to feelings of uncertainty.
The Turning Point:
Nadya decided to work with Jessica after attending a roundtable at Inkers Con, where Jessica’s practical approach to goal-setting and her deep understanding of author struggles stood out. Once they started working together, Jessica’s focused guidance helped Nadya begin breaking down her larger goals into more manageable tasks. She was encouraged to look at her goals in the short-term, setting a specific target for six months, which helped Nadya visualize the path ahead.
The Transformation:
With Jessica’s guidance, Nadya learned to break down tasks and set clear, realistic goals. One of the most significant transformations for her was in her approach to social media. Previously, she had struggled with consistency, often burning out after a few weeks of posting regularly. However, after working with Jessica, Nadya says,
The consistent weekly check-ins with Jessica helped Nadya stay on track and energized about her work. Jessica’s coaching style, which encouraged Nadya to find her own methods, was instrumental in making this shift. Nadya shared,
