159. Writing Your Way Through Life with Kate Hanley
As we enter the season of fall, it seems appropriate for us to discuss ghosts, but not the type of “ghosts” most people would think of at Halloween, today’s guest helps other authors write their stories as a ghostwriter. Kate Manley, author, coach, ghostwriter, and podcast host, joins us for a discussion on the topic, Writing Your Way Through Life. Kate encourages us to consider all forms of writing as a powerful way of expressing our thoughts throughout our life experiences.

Quote:
“I consider myself a person who processes the world through writing.”
“I think there's something about seeing something written in your own hand that is extra powerful, because you can't deny that you thought that, you wrote it with your own hand, on the paper, and it's captured.”
