281: "I'm Afraid I Won't Make Time"

281: "I'm Afraid I Won't Make Time"

If you've ever said, "I'd love to join Navigate, but I just don't have the time," this episode is for you.

Today, I'm joined by Dr. Janet McCabe, who brings honesty and real-world insight into what it looks like to invest in your writing during a busy and emotionally challenging season. We talk about her initial hesitation to join Navigate, the fear of adding one more thing to her plate, and how she ultimately found structure, clarity, and unexpected ease in her academic writing process.

Whether you're mid-career, managing administrative responsibilities, or simply struggling to reconnect with your research, Janet's reflections offer perspective and encouragement. Janet's experience is a powerful reminder that your writing doesn't need perfect conditions—it needs attention, structure, and a willingness to begin.
