Taking Time Off: Do I have to write every single day?

It's a competitive industry where everyone seems to be hustling 24/7, so taking time off can often feel like a risk (or even a failure). Fear of missing out is real.

So this week, we’re talking about rest - the kind that’s actually meaningful and necessary. We dig into our own fears around taking breaks, the pressure to be constantly producing, and the myth that real writers write every single day. We also explore what proper rest really looks like, and how stepping away (or at the very least, changing your focus) can sometimes be the most productive move of all.

If you’ve ever felt guilty about not writing (or you're just totally burned out and in need of a pina colada) this one’s for you.
