Not the A to Z, linear process you’ve been taught. We still have a beginning, middle, and an end, but we also have a break after the end. That makes the four seasons of the creative process that we’re more familiar with as Spring, Summer, Autumn, and Winter. Our creative energy follows the same cycles and rhythm of the seasons. Learn how to recognise where you are in the creative process and how to support yourself through all of the ups and downs using these seasonal rhythms. Welcome to The Cre...

Your writer’s block is simply pointing you in a different direction. Do you need to write into your book from a different place? Do you need to adjust or revise the structure so you feel grounded when you’re writing the detail? Do you need to express yourself in a way that wasn’t in your plan right now? Do you need to reflect and process the emotions that writing is bringing up for you? Learn how to navigate writer’s block as the guide that it is. Welcome to The Creative Midwife Show! I’m your h...

Let’s stop glorifying writer’s block the same way we’ve stopped glorifying being busy. There is a root cause of your writer’s block. You can identify it and move through it with relative ease and action.

A passing thought can become a sneaky expectation that creates emotional turmoil, friction, stress, and that feeling of being stuck. Let alone if you’ve intentionally created a fully-fledged plan and become consciously attached to those expectations, to things working out a certain way. I share how I’ve cleared these sneaky expectations to get back in flow in writing my book, creating this podcast, and in my daily routine. Welcome to The Creative Midwife Show!

Trusting that I would have time to write over the past two months of summer holidays with the family turned into just two frustrating writing sessions. Instead, I took an unintentional hiatus and the Universe taught me how to honour the tension and build the excitement for when I could get back to my creative work. How long we think our book will take to write is so often a made up, sneaky expectation that doesn’t reflect the incredible growth journey we’ve been invited on. Welcome to The Creati...

Tash created and birthed her second book over two years amidst working a 9-5 job, moving house, and through 8 months of pregnancy. She shares the complete timeline of how the book unfolded, from embracing the idea back in 2023, writing most of it in transit on planes in 2024, and using deadlines to her advantage to bring the book through editing to publication in January 2025.

Research is super fun, but it can become a distraction from the actual writing of the actual book that you’re doing the actual research for. That’s when it’s time to commit to the first draft knowing that there will be the opportunity for further research and filling in the gaps after you have a first draft to work with. Revision and editing are coming up and you can trust your future self to handle it. Welcome to The Creative Midwife Show! I’m your host, Kerryn Trisha, creative midwife, organis...

I get distracted when I’m writing. I have to hide my phone from myself. I can check the word count multiple times as I progress from zero to 300 to 550 to 800 and finally to my 1000-word goal. And every writing session has an ebb and flow, a rise and fall that we can learn to navigate with confidence from the shifting of the seasons. Welcome to The Creative Midwife Show!

I copied quotes from a reference book into my word count and it felt like cheating. I copied the 7000 word transcript from a podcast episode into my manuscript and it felt like cheating. Why was I valuing the “hard work” of writing new words above quotes that were far more likely to make it into the final draft? Why didn’t it count to add the transcript as first draft content and move on? Welcome to The Creative Midwife Show! I’m your host, Kerryn Trisha, creative midwife, organiser of ideas, wr...

Over the past six months of writing 40,000 words in my book I’ve taken several breaks away from writing, both expected and unexpected. I’ve been sick for three weeks, travelled to Europe for two weeks, and then had on-going sickness for two months. When I thought it was going to take me a year to write the first draft I freaked out because it felt so long. Now I expect it to take longer. And I don’t write every day or even every work day. Yet through it all I’ve come back to the writing. Welcome...

Amanda was voice messaging her bestie when she got an email inviting her to co-author a book with other women in business sharing their stories. Immediately she knew she had to do it even though she had no idea how she’d do it. The Universe already had her back because that bestie was me, writing coach & editor. She was already so supported she knew it’d all work out. Now she shares how it all unfolded. Welcome to The Creative Midwife Show! I’m your host, Kerryn Trisha, creative midwife, org...

I couldn’t admit to myself that I was writing a book until I’d written 10,000 words. Two pieces of guidance from Julia Cameron got me started writing with a first thought and 1,000 words at a time. When I reviewed those first 10,000 words, I could see the book that was emerging and the structure that was forming.Welcome to The Creative Midwife Show!

I was asked a question in my last writing class, "How do I write less analytically?" And my answer is to bring in more emotion. For you to share an experience you’ve had that is a real-life example or moment of what we’re analytically speaking about. We can dive deep into how that experience felt to us. This is not your classic “show, don’t tell” writing advice. This is going deeper than showing what happened by using all our senses to describe the scene. This is about describing the emotions we...
