Successful Author

I was watching an interview with NY Times bestselling author Anna David, and she was asked what makes a successful author. Her response was simple: someone who writes a book they are proud of, with the intention of helping people.

That statement hit me hard.

Because of the publishing process I’ve gone through over the last nine months, I’ve experienced parts of this journey that no one really talks about. These are the moments you don’t see on social media. The ones that only lived experience can teach.

And in that frame of thought, I realized something.

That definition makes me the most successful author I can be—before my book ever hits the shelves.

Curiosity to Creation has taken me roughly 16 months of continuous work, development, and consistency to bring into reality… all before selling a single copy.

It’s been passion. It’s been drive. It’s been a commitment to get this message into the world—to help people, to be seen, to be criticized, to be loved, and to be challenged.

And part of my message is moving through life without attachment to outcomes.

Yet throughout this process, I’ve been tested on that very belief—forced to hold myself accountable to the words I wrote in my own book.

I’ll be sharing updates soon, with a target release in the coming weeks.

To everyone who has supported me—friends, family, and those who have followed this journey—thank you. I hope what I’ve created meets the promise I made months ago.

I explain this concept throughout my book in multiple chapters, specifically Chapter 4, From Fear to Curiosity, and Chapter 7, The Permission Slip.

The language I use comes down to this: giving yourself the power to grant your own permission — to act on your highest dreams, your passions, your excitement, and your curiosity — without seeking outside validation from others, and instead trusting your own intuition and your heart.

There was a moment in my life I referenced in Chapter 8 about my 2013 move to Vegas. Even though it sounded absolutely ludicrous to people at the time, I knew in my heart it was what I wanted to do. Despite having a severe drinking problem, being on the verge of bankruptcy, and having very little money to my name, I still had this dream of becoming an entertainment flair bartender — a career bartender.

I was risking and sacrificing everything while dealing with depression and my own internal battles, but I knew what I wanted. I gave myself permission, and I used curiosity as a tool to act on my highest excitement.

Now, when I go back home, I have friends and family who treat me like I somehow found a cheat code to happiness. But the truth is, the “cheat code” was simply this: I followed my dreams, I moved through fear, I unlocked abundance, and I created the life I imagined.

I also went into this process fully aware that I might fail — and honestly, expecting that I would. But I used those failures as learning opportunities to grow, readjust, pick myself back up, and keep moving forward.

Life isn’t always kind. But through the tool of curiosity, you can use it as a compass — one that guides you towards your own creation

Curiosity to Creation — coming soon.

Curiosity to Creation and the Permission slip.

A short piece extracted from my book.

02/07/2026

I had a moment recently where I realized something important about my book.

The story isn’t illustrating the lesson.
The story is the lesson.

Curiosity didn’t show up in my life as a clean concept or a polished framework. It showed up as uncertainty, restlessness, intuition, missteps, pauses, and quiet inner questions. The process was messy. Human. Real.

That’s what I chose to protect in this book.

Not perfection.
Not compression.
But honesty.

Because curiosity doesn’t arrive with answers. It arrives as a feeling. A nudge. A question that won’t leave you alone.

This book isn’t about having it figured out.
It’s about trusting yourself enough to move before clarity shows up.

Human → Curiosity → Creation.

And I’m incredibly proud of that process.

Curiosity to Creation 🤍

🧠💫 In JUST 30 minutes: Mary Parker goes live at NeuroShift with "Neurofeedback for Anxiety"!

Perimenopause can turn up the volume on anxiety—sudden waves of worry, racing thoughts, feeling on edge, overwhelm that hits out of nowhere, or that constant "wired but tired" state. Hormonal fluctuations directly impact brainwave patterns, making the nervous system more reactive and harder to down-regulate.

As someone who’s lived this midlife anxiety storm and helped hundreds of women through it, I’m sharing how neurofeedback—a gentle, non-invasive brain-training tool—can help rewire those overactive stress patterns, promote calmer brain states, improve emotional regulation, and bring back a sense of inner steadiness even as hormones shift.

This is compassionate, science-backed hope for feeling more like yourself again—no judgment, no quick fixes, just tools that actually move the needle.

Being awake in a programmed world challenges the narratives and belief systems of others. Resistance surfaces the moment you break the script and stand in your own power.

Curiosity is not passive.

Curiosity is not reckless.

Curiosity is the bridge back to personal authority and creation.

01/05/2026

Curiosity is the bridge to recognizing and moving beyond that programming.
There is nothing broken that needs fixing.

All that is required is movement toward the spark.
Toward opportunities.
Toward possibility.

When curiosity leads, old patterns loosen their grip naturally.
Growth does not come from force.
It comes from awareness, choice, and action.

Curiosity to Creation.
