#46 - One Step Forward: Vulnerability as a Creative Act | Will Craig

from The Story Series Podcast with Brandon Violette (For Writers Who Break The Rules) · host BRANDON VIOLETTE, WILL CRAIG

After experiencing a tragic loss of a partner and battling some of his own personal demons, Will has grown to care deeply about having open and frank conversations around mental health. As a result, he's made it his mission to share his story in the hopes that it will show others they're not alone and perhaps encourage them to share theirs as well. In addition to his work in mental health advocacy, Will is the host of Sunday Reset w/ Will & Friends, a podcast where real conversations meet emotional honesty. He's also the author of One Step Forward: Ideally in the Right Direction, a personal collection of reflections on growth and resilience. He also just  released The Sunday Reset Journal: Writing Prompts for Your Inner Healing, which invites readers to slow down, reflect, and reset - one prompt at a time. IN THIS EPISODE, WE DISCUSS: • Writing as a tool for processing grief and anxiety. • Turning private writing into public work. • Self-publishing and creative ownership. • And why "done is better than perfect" is a rule worth breaking. RESOURCES: • Will's Book: "One Step Forward" • Will's Podcast: Sunday Reset w/ Will & Friends WANT MORE? ✏️💥 I put together a free guide called The Rule Breaker's Guide to Finding Your Creative Voice. A brutally honest roadmap built from the lessons, mistakes, and breakthroughs I've collected as a professional writer. 👉 Get it for free at StorySeriesPodcast.com CONNECT: • Instagram • LinkedIn • YouTube
