240: [Writing Practice Series] What Is Writing? [RE-RELEASE EP 58]

I am excited to introduce a new podcast series focused on writing practices. Throughout the series, I will share insights on redefining what writing means in academia, dispel myths about writing, and offer practical advice to help you cultivate a sustainable writing practice. In today’s episode, I explore the true definition of writing. I share why I believe writing is more than just words on a page and how the steps we take to prepare to write are essential parts of our writing practices. I also discuss how mindset impacts writing and give you an exercise to help you start cultivating a more positive relationship with your writing.  If you want to transform your writing practice from a dreaded chore to a sustainable and joyful activity, this episode is for you. Tune in to explore how to make writing a more fulfilling and enjoyable part of your academic career.
