In this episode I discuss:

  • Why so many people in publishing (and other fields) hold on to a scarcity mindset.

  • How scarcity can serve as a safety net for writers who harbor self-doubt.

  • The way an abundance mindset can set us up for writing success.

  • The importance of equity in abundance, and making sure all writers can shine.
