In the last episode, you learned about why your mental chatter shows up. But what does it actually sound like when someone sits down and starts sorting through the noise in real-time?

In this episode, I’m joined by writer and artist Cody Cook-Parrott to do exactly that. In our real coaching session, Cody’s in the thick of editing their sixth book—procrastinating hard, missing deadlines, and feeling completely overwhelmed. But as we peel back the layers, it’s not just about edits. It’s about their inner parts trying to protect them: the tantruming toddler, the stressed-out assistant, and the wise elder all trying to take the lead.

Together, we map what it looks like to move from gridlock to grounded action. You’ll hear:

• How Cody learned to reassign roles to their inner voices

• Why the editing work triggered a deep internal freeze

• What shifted when they invited a more resourced part to take charge

• Why play, compassion, and a little structure can change everything

• And how building a relationship with your inner champion builds actual momentum

This episode is a front-row seat to the kind of inner transformation that helps you do your most meaningful creative work—even when the world feels unsteady.
