Podcast episode (Hit Splits) hosted by Shelley Hitz asking listeners how they celebrate milestones and encouraging intentional celebration—especially for members of the Christian Book Academy. The episode highlights a lesson in the Academy’s first draft module that lists celebration ideas (from small treats to weekend trips) and invites members to share their chosen celebration in the private group.

Welcome back to another episode of the Hit Splits. And today I wanted to ask you a simple question. How do you celebrate when you hit a milestone, when you reach a big goal? What is your typical response? Do you just move on and go to the next goal? Do you acknowledge it at all? Do you celebrate in any way? If you're a Christian Book Academy member, at the end of the first draft module, we have a lesson all about celebrating. And it gives you a ton of ideas of how to celebrate, from little things such as just enjoying your favorite chocolate bar to maybe a bigger thing like going away for a weekend trip. So there are just so many ways that you can celebrate. But I know for me, I have been a action taker, a doer, and it's been easy for me to reach goals, to do things, and then just move right on to the next thing and not truly savor it. Celebrate it, praise God for it, right? Thank him for what he's doing. And so I'm trying to get better at doing that. And so I just want to encourage you as well. How are you celebrating? What are you doing to celebrate? And if you're a Christian Book Academy member, go check out that lesson. It's at the end of the first draft module, and look at some ideas. You know, even if you're celebrating your book launch or you're celebrating a book sale or something else that happened, go back to that lesson, check out some ideas and choose one and then let me know what you choose in our private group. And I encourage you to celebrate the big wins, but also the small milestones, because God is good and he is leading you step by step in this journey of writing, publishing, and marketing your book. All right, I will talk to you in the next episode.
