Summary

Welcome back to B is for Book Coach . Today, we’re making space for constraints . We’ve been talking a lot about releasing external obligations, and for good reason. Especially now, at the start of the year, they’re loud , they’re pushy, and they’re often unrelated to what we actually want and need. But I find that internal pressure is much more difficult to release. - Unhelpful brain stories - The Cynefin Framework - Governing and enabling constraints - How to emerge from the chaos Thanks for creating this space with me today. Whether or not you’re ready to dive into writing just yet, remember that the best authors show up fully, just as they are. That’s all it takes—and you’re already doing it.
