S1 Ep0: WELCOME! Introduction to The Fearless Writer Podcast
Welcome to Season One of The Fearless Writer Podcast with me, author Beth Kempton. This season is all about freeing the words within. I will be chatting about the things we don’t usually talk about when it comes to writing – including the importance of wildness, surrender, and trust. I hope it will help you write fearlessly, and with joy, and build a writing practice that nourishes you for the rest of your life. Bring a notebook and pen because we have a new writing exercise to do together every week.
Have a listen to this introduction to get a feel for the podcast, and make sure it is for you (I’m pretty sure it is)
