A Teaspoon of Healing

Hi! A new season of the podcast is starting. This episode shares tips for writers struggling with self-doubt or anxiety that can lead to writer’s block. Many of these ideas apply to other creative professionals, too.

As some of you know, I’m also a writer in addition to being a registered dietitian. Until recently, I had a pretty severe case of writer’s block fueled by self-doubt and the fear of writing poorly.

I’ve started writing creatively again (mostly short stories). These are a few tips that have helped me. I hope they help you, too. 😊

Available on all podcast platforms (link in bio). I’ll share the YouTube link in a post tomorrow.

Our brain relies on the information we give it.

If we are curious about a fear of public speaking, for example, and tell our brain the right story, then we can work with our fear and feel confident.

If we feed it doubt, our brain will focus on the doubt.
