Hosted by writer + brand strategist + copywriting coach + book editor + Substack author (and enthusiast!) Kai Madrone

Is there something inside you that wants to come forth? 🎨

• [ ] Do you write? Make art? Craft sweet playlists or delicious recipes?
• [ ] Do you have things on your heart you’d like to share with others/the world?
• [ ] Do you feel your creativity calling you to take it seriously and show up for wants to come through?
• [ ] Are you writing a book or creating other work that you want to establish an audience for?
• [ ] Have you thought about starting a blog but haven’t gotten to it yet?
• [ ] Do you have a newsletter or blog that isn’t getting much traction these days and wonder if it might do better in the Substack ecosystem?

But life or fear keep getting in the way? 🙈

• [ ] Does the tech of publishing online feel overwhelming?
• [ ] Are you reluctant to put yourself out there?
• [ ] Feel too busy to add another thing to your life?
• [ ] Worry that your stuff isn’t good enough yet?
• [ ] Concerned you won’t be able to maintain showing up consistently?

Yet the inner call persists? 💓

The culture we live in presses us to hustle-grind for money, career, survival, other people. All of that matters, but so does your soul. And what your soul is here for may be quite different from that path society laid out for you.

Why sharing your stuff matters 🌎

• In a society organized around profit, algorithms, and hype there’s a lot of noise and not enough substance. I believe we need more people sharing their authentic voice, their truth, their art, their gifts, their heart. People like you. People who care and have something inside them that wants to be unfurled.
• What you feel drawn to share is needed in our world. How else will we shift out of the old narratives and ways of doing things that are tearing us apart? How else will we move toward a world that’s more whole?
