Journaling as a Path to Creativity and Mindfulness

C.J. Chilvers has journaled every night since 2010, treating the practice as a form of quiet reflection—part habit, part meditation. In this episode, C.J. shares how a simple routine became a sustaining creative force in his life, why giving himself permission to complain was an early breakthrough, and how journaling helps him clear his head at the end of each day. We also talk about the value of keeping things unstructured and where he sees journaling evolving next.
