Stuck at the Start? Lost in the Middle? Struggling to Finish?
You’re a natural health and wellness expert—a yoga teacher, herbalist, therapist, nutritionist, or integrative, alternative, or functional medicine health practitioner.
You want to share your knowledge, establish yourself as a thought leader,
and grow your brand.
But without the right guidance, direction, or plan, it’s easy to get stuck or rewrite in circles.
You may have tried workshops, conferences, critique groups—but you’re still struggling.
This wastes time, money, and energy and turns your enthusiasm into stress, confusion, and overwhelm. This may be why 97 percent of writers never finish their books. But you can.

We're a Good Match If You Are: An expert in natural health and wellness and have a burning desire to share what you know to help readers transform their lives. Willing to adopt what's known as “beginner’s mind,” which means you're open to the process of book coaching as it unfolds and evolves.

You can share what you know with a wider audience, establish yourself as a thought leader, make an impact and grow your brand. You Can Use Your Book: •To help readers transform their lives in a positive way. •To educate your clients or patients about your method, plan or program. Instead of giving each one handwritten instructions, you can give them a complete approach from A to Z. •To land interview requests about your subject matter whether it’s for print, radio, the internet, podcasts or TV. This further establishes you as an expert and builds your presence as a thought leader. •To supersize your content. You can use and repurpose book content for speeches, blog posts, articles, newsletters, in person and on-line courses. • To help you land speaking gigs. Defining who you are, what you do and what you believe in through your book makes it easier for people to find and book you. •To give in-person workshops in your hometown, at universities, associations, green companies, organizations. Bonus you can sell your book to participants too. •To book consulting gigs with people or organizations who want to know what you know and learn what you have to teach them. Maybe you can teach Buddhist stress reduction techniques or mindfulness meditation to accountants or lawyers or business people. •And of course, The Big Kahuna: To get booked for a Ted Talk and boost your visibility, way, way up!

Welcome! I'm Glad You're Here. I'm Always Happy to Meet Natural Health & Wellness Experts With a Positive Message to Share With the World.
Hi, I'm Chrystle Fiedler. I'm a book coach, editor and 12-time published author.
I've written and edited nonfiction and fiction books for Big Five publishers including Penguin Random House and Simon & Schuster along with The Quarto Publishing Group USA and Quarto UK, Health Communications, Inc. and hybrid publishers. I have 17 years of experience in shaping health and wellness titles for publication.
Writing My First Book & Why I Can Help You Write Yours
I've always had a passion for natural health. It started when I went to a retreat at the Kripalu Center for Yoga and Health and continues to this day. After I graduated from Boston University with a BS in communications I moved to NYC and later L.A. to work in TV production. I missed NY though, and wanted to be my own boss, so moved back to my roots on Eastern Long Island and became a journalist and content creator with a focus on, you guessed it, natural health and wellness.
This led to my first book, The Complete Idiot's Guide to Natural Remedies. I was excited to write it but this quickly turned to stress and overwhelm because I had no idea how to do it! This was like heading into the jungle without GPS, a map or a compass! Maybe you've felt this way too.
Thankfully, I had solid writing skills honed through my magazine work, so eventually I figured it out and the book went to press. Valuable lessons learned. But if I'd had a book coach who provided editorial guidance, feedback and support, the process would have been SO much easier. I would have saved time and energy and actually enjoyed the process of writing my book.
That's why I'm now a book coach and editor who specializes in natural health and wellness. I work with authors who share my passion for natural and holistic health and help them the way I wish I'd been helped. I share what I've learned so that they (and you) can write your natural health book about natural remedies, yoga, meditation, herbalism, alternative and functional medicine, mental health, mind-body-spirit or another topic with confidence.
Why Publishing Experience Matters in a Book Coach
My experience writing nonfiction (and fiction, check out my natural remedies mystery series for Galley/Pocket) makes me different from other book coaches, many of whom have not written a book. This means that I know all the ins and outs, short-cuts, and secrets that can make it faster and easier for you to make your dream of writing a book come true.
I'm passionate about animal welfare issues, dachshund rescue and adoption, nature, travel and books.
