Do you only pick up your journal when you’re overwhelmed or upset? I get it. As a highly sensitive introvert, it’s easy to see journaling as an “emotional emergency tool.” But when you only use it in crisis, you miss out on the calm and clarity it can bring to everyday life.

In this episode, I’m sharing why consistent journaling matters, simple ways to make it a habit, and what to write about when you’re not in the middle of big emotions.

You’ll also learn how looking back at calmer entries can help you build emotional awareness and resilience over time. If you’ve struggled with overthinking, emotional exhaustion, or inconsistent journaling, this episode will help you create a practice that feels supportive, peaceful, and sustainable, not like another thing on your to-do list.
