with host artist Miriam Schulman
In this episode I am going to be talking about journaling. I get a lot of questions from my listeners who have trouble focusing. This episode is dedicated to a deep dive into the strategy that I use to quiet my monkey mind and stay focused throughout my day.
These days a lot of planners actually include journaling prompts. The biggest roadblock may of us have in reaching our goals is gaining clarity about what those goals should actually be.
In this episode, learn about my daily journaling practice, ways to make journaling part of your day and which planners may help you.

I am so inspired by your podcasts and your website! I am always looking forward to what’s next!
I love all your podcasts. This episode reminded me to get back to journaling. My life has been a crazy rollercoaster ride for the past few months with little or no time to create or let go. I have not been journaling at all either. After listening to today’s podcast, I am reminded how much journaling has helped me for years. Thank you so much Miriam for all the hard work and dedication you put into these podcasts every week. Each episode is priceless.
