The Indie Author Clarity Kit

---

You don’t need another course. You need clarity.
The Indie Author Clarity Kit is a guided roadmap for writers who want to publish independently—with consciousness, confidence, and integrity.  For authors who value both the art and the process, this kit distills what actually matters—without the noise, formulas, or predatory upsells that flood the indie space.

Why it exists:
Not every story needs a publisher. Some just need direction.
The Clarity Kit was created by Healing Shelf Press to help first-time indie authors navigate the complex world of self-publishing with the same emotional intelligence and editorial standards we bring to our own books.

You’ll learn how to:

• Understand the publishing landscape—what’s worth your energy, what’s not.
   
• Build your author ecosystem from a place of alignment, not overwhelm.
   
• Create a professional, trauma-informed publishing process that honors your story and your nervous system.

Our promise:
The Clarity Kit doesn’t tell you what to write.
It helps you remember why you’re writing—and how to bring that work into the world responsibly.

This is independent publishing, done consciously.

This package gives you three things every first-time indie author needs:

The First-Time Indie Author Playbook (instant download) — a step-by-step publishing roadmap that takes the guesswork out of publishing.

• Clear, step-by-step publishing roadmap (including ISBNs, formats, and distribution).
• The “Ideal Indie Stack” — which platforms matter most (and which you can skip).
• A marketing and publicity blueprint you can follow without burning out.
• Awards & memberships calendar — mapped out so you don’t miss deadlines.
• The top pitfalls first-time authors make—and how to avoid them.

A 60-minute personalized author coaching session — a supportive session where you’ll get directional support, clarity, and encouragement.

• A calm, supportive space to sort through your questions and overwhelm.
• Gentle, structured guidance so you know exactly what to do next.
• Encouragement when fear or doubt gets loud.

The Stress Reset Course — a 6-module, self-paced program that helps you regulate your nervous system, reset your stress response, and build resilience while you take on publishing.

• Short videos, guided exercises, and practical tools you can use anytime.
• Designed to help you stay grounded, focused, and energized through the entire publishing process.
• Ensures that stress doesn’t derail your progress—or your creativity.
