Episode 207: How to Use Your Writing as a Gift for Others

In this solo episode of the Thriving Authors Podcast, I’m sharing my thoughts and reflections on the gift we give to ourselves when we tap into our creative spirit, honor the stories inside of our hearts and write them down. So many of my clients talk about the empowerment and the healing and the joy and the comfort that they receive from embarking on this writing journey. But also, our writing is such a beautiful gift that we give to others.  I’m sharing everything from personal examples of the ways that I've used writing as a gift for others to ways to find the balance of taking ourselves seriously as writers while also being playful and expansive. My hope is that this episode gives you some food for thought and a bit of inspiration! If you’re ready to share YOUR story and carve out time for this beautiful and important work, I’d love to invite you to join my Thriving Authors Academy. Reach out to get on the waitlist and be the first to know when enrollment opens in the spring. >> In the meantime, let’s kick off the holiday season with gratitude! Join me starting Tuesday, November 18th for the free 5-day Write with Gratitude challenge to refresh your creative energies… AND use your writing powers to unleash more loving kindness in the outside world! This is my favorite challenge that I host and it started with my writing practice, where I really realized that cultivating gratitude is the biggest game changer!
