Steph Caswell

For female entrepreneurs and experts writing their books, there's one challenge that rarely gets discussed: how hormonal changes can impact everything from our writing routine to our confidence in sharing our expertise.

So, in today’s episode, I’m sharing my experience, as well as ideas, to help you keep writing through it all.

You’ll discover:

The unexpected ways hormones can impact our writing process - from brain fog and fatigue to confidence shifts
Why rest isn't just 'nice to have' but essential for your creativity
Practical strategies for adapting your writing practice during hormonal changes - including energy management, nutrition tips, and creating the right environment
My personal experience with perimenopausal symptoms and how it's affected my writing journey
Why this isn't about "losing your edge" - but embracing a new phase of your creative life

And so much more!

Please remember that if you’ve ever sat down to write your business book, only to find your usual clarity and focus hijacked by hormonal changes, you're not alone.

You're still an expert, still creative, still capable - you might just need some new strategies to support your writing journey.

I hope you enjoy listening!
