The Copywriting Mindset to Crush Self-Doubt with Brian McCarthy

Copywriting For Coaches

What if your copywriting felt fun, effortless, and true to who you are? That is what’s possible for you when you embrace the right copywriting mindset. But let’s be honest—it is easy for fear, stress, and perfectionism to creep in during the writing process. Which can be both frustrating and exhausting. That’s when we overthink every word, second-guess our instincts, and lose sight of what really matters.

In this episode, we’re getting to the root of the problem with mindset coach Brian McCarthy. He helps six-figure business owners release the subconscious fears holding them back. Brian’s take on the copywriting mindset will change how you approach your writing. Because doing this first accelerates all of the other pieces of the process. It’s not just about techniques or templates; it’s about connecting with yourself first. When you write from a place of authenticity and confidence, everything flows—your words, your business, your energy.
It’s time for you to finally write with joy and freedom. Let’s uncover the mindset that makes it possible.
