Unlock Hidden Healing and Unexpected Income: The Surprising Power of Journaling Revealed!
Social media has been the megaphone for this shift. Personal stories, daily quotes, and raw reflections—once confined to a bedside notebook—are now dressed up with aesthetic visuals and hashtags. A single post that resonates can lead to thousands of followers, and eventually grow into newsletter subscribers and book buyers.
If you already journal, you’re halfway there. You’re sitting on a goldmine of ideas, stories, and lessons people are craving. The rest is structure:
- Identify recurring themes (healing, boundaries, burnout, etc.)
- Curate entries into blog posts, books, or emails
- Offer value from your growth journey
Take, for example, creators like Amber Rae, author of Choose Wonder Over Worry. She started her career by journaling on her blog and Instagram. With a strong visual style, and relatable content, she built a large community, and sold a commercially successful self-help book. Amber also sells journaling tools, such as prompt books and planners, which continue to sell well because the audience base already believes in her story.
