Pep Talk 12: It was hard

These short pep talks are designed to give you a little boost of motivation or inspiration and help you along with your day and your project. Today, instead of a regular episode, we're bringing you four pep talks designed to help you through the winter holidays or other busy season. This is a notoriously stressful time of year, whether you find it joyful on balance or not. Travel, end-of-year work push, family, kids off school -- there's a lot going on. Not to mention the inevitable retrospection, the adding up of all you've accomplished and not over the past year. Honestly, we both have a lot of things going on right now, too, and a regular episode was too much to take on. We hope these pep talks speak to you and whatever you need this season as much as they did for us. You can find more information and get in touch on our website, marginallypodcast.com.  Find us on Instagram @marginallypodcast or Facebook.

Om Podcasten

For writers and creatives with day jobs they enjoy. Marginally is about supporting and encouraging people for whom writing – and all forms of creative pursuit – is part of a full life, not the only life. We’re not trying to have it all, but we do have a lot to do. We have day jobs, caring responsibilities, and other life commitments that are important to us. Maybe we don’t aspire to write full time. Maybe we do. Maybe we are on a longer journey to that destination, and we’d like you to join us.
