When your writing stalls, it’s rarely about discipline.

It’s usually about what you’re focusing on, and what’s happening underneath the surface.

In this episode, I’m taking you inside of what it actually feels like to be coached by me, and the first three things we would shift together:

• What coaching really feels like (and why it’s different from what you might expect)
• The real priority when your writing isn’t moving, and why most writers focus on the wrong thing
• How Claire Ben, PhD, experienced the coaching in her own words

This is a behind-the-scenes look at the kind of support that helps writers not just write more, but finally remove subconscious blocks that have been keeping them stuck.

I'm a bit ashamed about this:

As someone who teaches writing, publishes books, and supports others to finish theirs, I’ve recently been resisting editing my book, You Are Already Free.

In this episode, I share what happens when projects stall at a more advanced stage - even when you're an experienced writer.

We explore:

• The fears that come when your work becomes visible
• What’s actually happening when you're stuck as an experienced writer
• How subconscious story shifting and automatic writing can help you move again (both are bonuses inside the 90-Day Accelerator)

This is an honest look at the inner side of finishing a project, especially when you’ve outgrown the "usual" tools.

If you recognise yourself here, the 90-Day Accelerator is where we go deeper.

We start April 13th and the early bird discount is valid until March 31.

Over 90 days, you’ll finish your project while working with the subconscious patterns that keep you stuck — so the writing starts to flow again.

This guided meditation is for writers who feel stuck, restless, or subtly blocked - because something beneath the surface is asking to be seen.

In this 15-minute session, which comes from a live program I ran recently, I guide you through:

• A calming breath practice to settle your nervous system
• A gentle transition into a trance-like pause, beyond thinking and effort
• A visualisation that leads you to an inner door - a blind spot that’s been quietly calling for your attention
• 5 minutes of spacious time (with music) to write down what you see
• After the 5 minutes, you can jump off and keep journaling, or debrief with me and get writing tips

This meditation creates conditions where insights can arrive through images, sensations, and inner wisdom instead of thinking.

Come back to this practice whenever you feel 'off' in your writing or life. Sometimes the next step isn’t more effort - it’s opening the right door.

What happens when a life spent in international development turns into fiction?

In this episode, debut novelist Johanna Kirwan joins me to talk about her stunning book Seven Lives — seven interconnected stories of women navigating love, loss, and purpose across the globe.

We dive into:

• How Johanna transformed decades of field experience into layered, human stories
• The line between autofiction and memoir — and why she chose fiction
• The creative freedom that comes with writing later in life
• Her choice to publish with small press Fire & Feather, instead of chasing an agent

It’s a conversation about purpose, legacy, and writing the stories that stay with you — even after the work ends.
