The goal of the writing practice is to help us choose the voice that is our voice. And so, you know, I talk readers through when you sit down to the page and you stare at the blinking cursor,. There can be this moment of panic where you think like, I don't know what to say or what to write. But actually, if you can find time in your day and then create a space in your environment...you'll start to experience the other benefits too.
This week I’m thrilled to re-release this episode with Allison Fallon. Allison is an award winning author, sought after public speaker, and nationally recognized writing coach. She has coached hundreds of thousands of writers - from NYT Bestselling authors to total beginners to help them finally get their books written and on shelves.
Her most recent book The Power of Writing Things Down walks anyone - even those who swear they aren't "real" writers - through a simple daily practice they can use to reduce anxiety, curb depression, improve their confidence and gain clarity in their life. Grab the first chapter free here.
I wanted to bring this episode back out and top of mind moving forward into the new year because even though I don’t particularly subscribe to the idea of doing New Years Resolutions, I do believe in making progress and have been thinking about goals I want to push forward next year.
