Curiosity can make writing feel easier, more energizing, and more enjoyable. But we can’t just force ourselves to feel curious. In this episode, we explore how curiosity works, what shuts it down, and how one intentional choice can create the conditions for curiosity to thrive.


We’ll look at the relationship between curiosity and uncertainty. And we'll talk about practical ways to stop pushing yourself toward the work and start creating opportunities for the work to pull you in.
