Hello Lovely Listeners!
This episode is sponsored by the Lunar Cycle Workshop, brought to you by Patrick Geary, who has been a guest on this show. Thank you for your support, Patrick!
Today you’ll be hearing from the author of two books, Intuitive Writing and the Unfussy Life.
Jacqueline Fisch is an author, copywriter, writing coach, and the founder of The Intuitive Writing School. She helps creatives move past writer’s block and perfectionism so they can finish their important work, and she supports business owners in finding their authentic voice so they can make an impact on the world.
***
Key takeaways from this conversation:
- Do you writing and editing separately, not in the same work session.
- To stay nimble after a layoff, start taking action soon after the event.
- Starting a business while you are still at a "main gig" gives you a good runway to build without too much pressure.
- Writing with the lunar phases can improve your results. From our conversation and the Intuitive Writing book:
- During the new moon (dark moon/winter) phase: write intentions for your project, and dedicate time to journaling without specific action. Get extra rest, get quiet, meditate and walk in nature. Block your calendar to create spaciousness without meetings if possible.
- During the waxing moon/spring/follicular phase: you may notice you have a lot of ideas during this time. Brainstorm and capture them, and possibly start taking action with "shitty first drafts" during this time.
- During the full moon/summer/ovulation phase: use this opportunity as "visibility" time. If you do a book or release party, it's a great time for it. The extra light in the sky gives you more energy. You might share some of your work with readers for feedback. Consider what's being illuminated that you might need to release.
- During the waning moon/fall/luteal phase: Do your "gathering" at this time. Harvest those words and ideas that have been simmering. Edit your drafts to really make them shine, since you may have more attention to detail.
