Writing a book is a daunting task, often exacerbated by our own negative thoughts and beliefs. But what if changing the way you think about writing is the key to getting unstuck? 

In today’s episode, I give four mindset shifts that can help you break through writer’s block. These simple but transformative mental reframes can turn a deeply stressful process into a more fulfilling, creative journey. So tune in to discover how changing your thoughts can help you reignite your passion for writing and help  build a world you want to inhabit.

Also, in this episode I announce my new one-on-one coaching program, the Career Reset, designed specifically for overwhelmed academics. This program will help you clarify your career vision, create space for what truly matters, and align your work with your internal purpose, all in just six hour-long sessions over four months. Whether you’re looking to re-energize your academic career or contemplating a significant change, this program offers the guidance and support you need.
