The Making Of A Publishing Legend with Judy Piatkus

Aired Thursday, June 24, 2021 at 4:00 PM PST / 7:00 PM EST

There’s a piece of advice that’s often shared today, particularly in the new thought/awakening conscious arena, which is “follow your passion, believe in yourself, and the success and the money will follow.” If there were a competition for a poster child for that approach to life and living, there’s little doubt that Judy Piatkus would rank highly among the contestants.

Judy Piatkus is a publishing legend. In 1979, she founded what would become a global publishing brand— Piatkus Books —from her spare bedroom. A single-mother with a child with learning disabilities at a time when being a self-made woman entrepreneur was rare, Judy defied expectations, influencing, shaping, and giving rise to the cultural and professional perception of personal growth and development publishing. Long before the bestseller charts were packed with mind/body/spirit, business, and relationship books, Judy created a platform for new voices and leading authorities and experts in their fields, including internationally bestselling authors Jon Kabat-Zinn, Mary Berry, David Allen and Brian L. Weiss.

Judy Piatkus joins Sandie this week to talk about her memoir, Ahead of Her Time – How a One-Woman Startup Became a Global Publishing Brand, which provides fascinating insights into building a company and brand identity, her learning experiences as an entrepreneur, the triumps and pitfalls, what worked and what didn’t, how it felt to overcome obstacles to build the career she wanted from the ground up, as a truly self-made woman… and much more.



Judy Piatkus is an entrepreneur, publisher and business coach specialising in conscious leadership. She founded Piatkus Books when she was in her 20s and grew the company to become an international brand, before selling it in 2007, just before the global financial crash that she had shrewdly foreseen. She is now a keynote speaker and a coach and mentor to start-ups. In 2011 she founded Conscious Cafe, a network that brings people together for conscious connection and discussion.
