Finish More Pages Without Writing Every Day 29.06.2026

You don’t need another reminder to “just write every day.” You’ve tried that. You’ve written during lunch breaks, after work, before bed, between meetings, while the house was finally quiet, and still somehow your manuscript feels like it should be further along by now. That’s the part I want to talk about in this episode. Because finishing more pages is not always about adding more writing days....

How to Find Time to Write When Your Schedule Is Already Full (with Lissa Figgins) 09.01.2026

You don’t need more hours. You need your time to finally work for you. In this episode, I’m sitting down with Lissa Figgins , a scaling strategist for busy Christian women business owners, to talk about the lie most writers are quietly carrying: “I don’t have time right now.” We get honest about what’s actually happening when writing keeps getting pushed back—even when you’re already productive, c...

How to Keep Writing When Self-Doubt Comes Out of Nowhere 25.11.2025

This one’s honest, grounded, and meant to remind you that you’re not “struggling”… you’re growing. And you’re closer to finishin...

How to Keep Writing During the Holidays Without Burning Out 18.11.2025

Let’s talk about what no one wants to admit during the holidays: it’s not the calendar that’s the problem—it’s the old writing habits that stop working when life gets full. In this episode, I’m pulling back the curtain on why waiting for things to "calm down" keeps delaying your draft and what to do instead. You don’t need 3 quiet hours and a peppermint latte. You need a habit you can tu...

You and Novel November 29.10.2025

You’re already writing. Maybe even published a few books. But every time November rolls around, you find yourself defaulting to hustle—trying to squeeze words in between holiday plans, client deadlines, and everything else you manage. Here’s the truth: writing under pressure doesn’t prove your dedication. It just drains your peace. In this episode, I’m talking to the author who’s done Novel Novemb...

Writing Feels Like a Luxury? Think Again 31.07.2025

What you need is a way to write that fits your real life—kids, career, business, caregiving, all of it. If you’re tired of circling the same draft and waiting for calm that never comes, this episode is your wake-up call. Because deep down, you know you’re not behind...

You Budgeted for Everything But This 17.06.2025

In this episode, I’m saying what no one...
