In today's first solo episode of the year, I'm sharing the one resolution I'm committing to in 2026; writing! I'll be honest I've already stumbled a few times, but I'm learning to let go of my all-or-nothing mindset and embrace consistency over perfection. I talk about why I've always told myself I'm "not a good writer," how I'm using the 750 Words website to build a daily writing habit, and why this practice is going to transform my business. Plus, I'm opening up about my goal to write a book this year 👀 and how I'm learning to be kinder to myself along the way.

Key Takeaways

• If you keep telling yourself a negative story, it will continue to be true For years, I've told myself I'm not a good writer, but I'm realizing that story isn't serving me. By practicing daily, I'm proving to myself that writing is a skill I can improve, not something I'm inherently bad at.
• Consistency doesn't mean perfection. I've struggled with an all-or-nothing mindset my whole life, but I'm learning that missing a day here and there doesn't mean failure. It's about showing up regularly, even when it's not perfect; whether that's writing, going to the gym, or any other goal.
• Daily writing is an investment in my business. Writing shows up everywhere in my work; email marketing, blog posts, website copy, client communications—and by improving this skill, I'm setting myself up to communicate better across all areas of my business. Plus, I'm building a bank of content I can repurpose later.
