The way I dealt with writers block was never forcing myself to write when I was not "feeling" it. When you feel it write, when you do not wait, the inspiration and words will come when it is time.

I honestly wrote this book to help people. I have always wanted to be a helper which is why I became a social worker. Writing this book gave a public voice to my work, allowing me to help those who would never have found me otherwise.

Trust yourself and your process. Do not put pressure on yourself and know when your book is ready to come through you it will.

Right now I am not writing anything. I have a few ideas. My focus at this moment is sharing my book with the world.

I just allow room in my life to have the time. If I get an idea, I will stop to write it down. If I can sit for longer and explore it I will, if not I just get enough on paper to allow me to come back to it at a later time.

I was inspired to write this book in 2015 when away at a retreat I had a great idea during meditation. This was the seed that got me on my writing journey.
