Academic Writing Amplified

280: Increasing Your Capacity For Writing And Publishing

29 Jul 2025

Description

Do you want to take on new projects or tackle more writing and publications but feel like the number one thing holding you back is time?  What if I told you capacity isn't fixed, you can build it?  Today, I'm sharing what capacity building means and how intentionally growing your capacity can help you do more of the work that matters without burning out. In this episode, I share my own experiences juggling personal and professional responsibilities. I share vivid, real-life examples of how my capacity expanded over time, from parenting multiple children to managing a large farm business alongside my academic coaching career. I'll also address common fears about timing big career moves, especially the myth that you have to wait until you have more capacity before committing to growth. If you've been hesitating to push forward with your writing or career goals because you feel maxed out, this episode is for you. Listen in to shift your mindset around capacity, learn practical ways to grow it, and get inspired to take action now because waiting for the "perfect" time only holds you back.
