Beautiful Writers Podcast

Wow! Upclose and personal with Deepak Chopra for an entire hour, a highlight of the year for sure. Linda and guest co-host Arielle Ford asked the poignant questions that invited Deepak to dive deep with us to all that is beyond the veil of even words. Riveting. I took notes and will be re-listening again and again. Book is on order. Big thank you.

Every once in awhile you stumble upon a book or a movie or a podcast that makes you so happy and excited you just want to tell everybody about it! That’s exactly what happened when I stumbled upon Linda Sivertsen’s “Beautiful Writers” Podcast. To be totally honest, I wasn’t sure about the name, (Do we need to be beautiful to write?) and I certainly didn’t need another writing podcast, ( I already had my favourites,) but I decided to give it a whirl and see what it was all about. I think the first episode I listened to was Elizabeth Gilbert talking about magic and muses, and this, combined with Linda’s both soothing and compelling voice drew me in. I listened to the one with Van Jones and Glennon Doyle, then Danielle Laporte and on and on. I’d never even heard of Siversten and here she is interviewing and chatting away with all my favourite authors! Such a gift! And they aren’t the drawn out 2-hour plus pods-they all come in under the 90 minute mark which is so appealing to me because, truth be told, sometimes I find myself listening to pods as a way to avoid my own writing. Do yourself a favour and give yourself the gift of creative inspiration by listening to “Beautiful Writers,” because it’s awesome and because hell, aren’t we all beautiful writers?

The sound quality of this show is terrible! I really wish I could listen to it because the topics sound interesting and it has great guests, but the sound is so bad and the voices so fuzzy it hurts my ears. Please put more effort into your sound quality!

I’ve recently returned to this beautiful podcast and I’m bingeing it as I tackle my first book proposal and it’s so magical and inspiring, that I feel like I can not only finish this damn thing but I will publish it. Thank you for these lovely conversations and sharing your writing journeys. It’s not easy but… it’s worth it. Right?
