The Importance of the Personal Essay

  • Resumen

  • I’ve been writing personal essays for over a decade, and I believe that my personal essay practice allowed me to leave social media.

    So in today’s episode, I share how I blend the personal, the poetic, and the political in my writing. And I unpack how that supports me in speaking up and sharing my work without shying away from what’s happening in the world.

    I hope this episode inspires you to share your writing with the people. Tune in to learn about—

    • The importance of your life story
    • How to share your political values
    • Facing fear when we don’t know what to say
    • Being willing to get it wrong
    • Why you should choose a container for your writing
    • How personal essays can help you leave social media
