What happens when you stop chasing success and start following what you believe you're being called to do?
In this conversation, Kate Northrup sits down with author and publisher Keira Brinton to explore the unconventional path that transformed her life—from panic attacks and financial uncertainty to building a thriving publishing company by trusting divine guidance. Keira shares how learning to release fear, follow intuitive nudges, and take bold action opened doors she never could have planned on her own.
Together, they discuss the relationship between spirituality and money, why collaboration creates more abundance than competition, and how trusting your calling often requires taking risks before you feel ready. Keira also shares the story behind Joan of Arc Publishing, the vision for Writers Island, and why helping people share their stories has become her life's work.
Whether you're an entrepreneur, an aspiring author, or someone seeking greater trust in your own path, this episode is an inspiring reminder that abundance often begins with the courage to take the next step.
"When women know how to make money, we will change the world." - Keira Brinton

✨ What If the Book You’re Meant to Write Won’t Leave You Alone?
Not a book for credibility.
Not a book because it’s good for business.
The one that keeps tapping you on the shoulder, asking to be written.
Keira Brinton’s free workshop, The Author Threshold, is for leaders who know there’s a message inside them that deserves a more permanent home.
Inside, you’ll explore:
🔹 Why carrying an unwritten book creates tension
🔹 How to move from "someday" to clear next steps
🔹 Why identity comes before publishing strategy
🔹 How to build the confidence to become the author your message needs
Books outlive launches.
They outlive algorithms.
They outlive us.
If there’s a message that won’t leave you alone, maybe it’s time to let it move through you.
