What if you never become the hero of your own story?

What if the spark you’ve been chasing has been hidden inside your favorite stories all along? What if it’s been waiting for you to notice it–so you could write your next chapter with purpose?

Whether you’re a daydreaming bookworm, a dice-rolling dungeon crawler, or a burnt-out survivor searching for meaning, Fight For Your Fairytale invites you to view your life as the epic quest it truly is.

Blending the heart of a memoir with the tools of self-help and the magic of fantasy, writer and editor Colleen H. Ochab doesn’t just share her story–she hands you the tools to shape yours–not as a side plot, but as a hero’s journey worth fighting for.

Through raw and honest storytelling, Colleen shares how she battled breast cancer, creative doubt, and imposter syndrome in her twenties–using the same strategies that shaped her favorite fictional characters. Throughout the adventure, she gives you actionable guidance to uncover your “life’s fairytale”, set meaningful goals, and face your real-life dragons with courage and clarity so you can fly with them rather than fight them.

Because the fairytale in your heart isn’t a fantasy–it’s a challenge. A calling. A fight. And it’s time to pick up your sword.
