Mom guilt is real—but it doesn’t mean going after your writing dream is wrong.

In this episode, I’m talking honestly about the tension so many moms feel when we want to write but also want to be fully present with our families. If you’ve ever questioned whether your novel is worth the time, this is your reminder that your writing matters—and so do you.

You’ll hear:

• Why creativity often triggers guilt in a way work doesn’t—and how to challenge that

• How grounding yourself in your why helps quiet the “selfish” narrative

• Why your family benefits when you feel creatively fulfilled and connected to yourself
