How a Gratitude Practice Can Reset Your Writing Life


Listen Later

Could a gratitude practice be the reset your writing life needs?


Gratitude can shift your mindset, ease the pressure you put on yourself, and bring you back to the heart of why you write. 

You’ll hear how a simple practice helped me reconnect with my creative life, why it matters specifically for writers, and a challenge to help you create your own writing gratitude list.
