In this episode, I discuss how the fear of criticism shouldn't hold you back from writing. What others say about your work is out of your control, and often, the fear of criticism is worse than the criticism itself. I highlight that constructive feedback can actually improve your writing. Start with small projects to build your confidence, and view criticism as an opportunity for growth. I encourage creating a support network of fellow writers and practicing self-compassion by separating your self-worth from your work. As a challenge, write a short piece on a topic you're passionate about and seek honest feedback.
