This episode gives you an update on the book writing experiment I recently tested! We discuss:

  • How I prepped for writing the actual book itself
  • Daily breakdown of how that first week of the experiment went
  • 3 reasons why I decided to go back to the drawing board with my book
  • An important reminder we can all keep in mind when it comes to prioritizing our creative pursuits
  • Navigating mindset drama when allowing ourselves to work on creative projects and outlets
  • Was this experiment a success? Overview of results and what I learned from this experience, plus what I’ll be doing next…
