Send us a textJulia Packwood has the idea. She feels the call. She even has deadlines and bylines. Yet when she sits down to write, it feels like a battle.In this episode, Azul reframes that struggle: the hard feeling is not a problem to be fixed, but rather a rite of passage. Then the conversation turns practical, moving the writing practice out of the office and into nature, separating drafting from editing, and measuring progress by words, not time.A warm, honest episode for anyone trying to write a book while raising kids, building a business, or living a full life.Timestamps:00:00 Who Julia is and what she teaches01:06 The writing battle: deadlines help, but it still feels hard03:04 Reframe: “This is how writing is,” and nothing is wrong with you04:53 Write outside the box, literally07:41 Transcribe later, create first09:11 Intuition vs “business advice” about the right audience14:12 Your expertise is your perspective, not your facts17:19 Nature-led play, and why parents need simplicity20:11 Let go of “chapters” and follow seasons25:14 AI hooks vs human presence28:31 Bold claims, fierce wonderings, and why outlines can trap you34:27 Count words, not time42:05 Feeling exposed, sharing the journey anyway44:51 The takeaway: resistance is the pathFull show notesCOMMUNITY PROGRAMS📚 Write and Publish your bookCONNECT📷 Instagram🎬 TikTok👫🏻 Facebook💼 LinkedIn🐦‍⬛ Twitter🤝🏻 Apply to be a GuestLEAVE A REVIEW✍🏻 Review on Apple Podcasts✍️ Review on Spotify🖱️ Episode Webpage
