Embodied Writing Warrior: Food Freedom, Creativity & Spiritual Reclamation

229. Reclaiming Your Narrative & Writing With Intention ft. Charlotte Chipperfield

Kayla MacDonald

So many aspiring writers believe they need to write every day, hustle through the draft, or follow rigid rules to finish a book. But what if the real magic lies in slowing down and tuning in?

In this episode of the Embodied Writing Warrior Podcast, I’m joined by Charlotte from Her Narrative—developmental editor, book coach, and author of Write With Intention. Charlotte blends story strategy with deep compassion to help writers approach the creative process as a soul-led journey, not a sprint.

We talk about:

  • Why mindfulness is the missing ingredient in so many writing methods
  • How to build a sustainable rhythm without writing every day
  • What to do when self-doubt, procrastination, or burnout show up
  • How to reconnect with your why and your readers’ hearts
  • Why getting your messy first draft done is the only goal that matters at first

Charlotte’s perspective is a refreshing reminder that writing can be both powerful and gentle. It doesn’t need to be a grind—it can be a space for healing, clarity, and transformation.
