A Study In Chaos

In this episode, I break down how I’m using my planners now that I’m a full-time creative. I talk about the two main planners I use, why I prefer physical planners over digital, and how I keep track of everything from my writing goals to daily health stuff. There are no visuals for this episode—it’s all about the real talk on planning and staying organized in the middle of chaos.

Todays episode is raw, and I talk about my journey over the last three years. Mainly focusing in the form of self reflection, on the beginning of my Ulcerative Colitis journey.

Lets talk about my intentions from Monday, and what I actually achieved.

This month didn’t go the way I planned—because, well, life happened. In this mid-June chaos check-in, I talk about the things I didn’t get done (like posting original chapters) and the unexpected things that took my energy instead. From my stepdad's health scare to saying goodbye to my sweet guinea pig Gizmo, plus working extra hours and organizing behind-the-scenes for the AuthorTube Writing Conference... it's been a lot. ...

This Episode is about the struggles of reading, or starting to read something new. Possibly even the struggles of just picking up a book. And my realization that I hadn't read for me, and it just felt like work.

Reading used to be my whole personality. Then I grew up, went to college, and somewhere between the required chapters and burnout, it stopped being fun. In this episode, I talk about my early reading history, how it fade...

This episode I chat over all of the stats for the month of May, my word count, and hours streamed, etc.
