Last week, I wrote about the power of presence and taking time to rest, to connect with people you love and to make interests that you have a priority. If you missed my post about Costa Rica, it’s a good one!
That experience reminded me that presence isn’t just a vacation feeling, it’s a practice. And for writers, that practice often takes the shape of ritual.
If writing matters to you (be it journaling, writing, poetry, penning a book, or writing op-eds for your local newspaper), you’ll want to read below about the Women in Publishing Summit.
But before you do that, if you’ve been feeling stuck, frustrated or distracted from your writing practice, you’ll want to listen to this podcast I recorded with Women in Publishing Summit Founder Alexa Bigwarfe. I wanted to share it with you again because it’s a gentle reminder that small actions (simple rituals) can make a BIG impact!
In the podcast, we talk about how writing rituals help us return to ourselves, to the page, and to what matters, even when life feels busy or overwhelming.
If you enjoy our conversation, you’re going to LOVE Alexa’s writer’s conference next week… read on for more info!

So, will you join me next week at the Women in Publishing Summit?
In many ways, this Summit feels like an extension of everything I’ve been sharing lately—presence, intention, and the power of doing meaningful work together.
