You, Me, and the Writing Journey is a podcast that meets at the intersection of all things literary + mental health. Prior to the launch of this podcast, the writing community answered the following questions in a poll:

1) Why do you think the #writingcommunity could benefit from a podcast that will meet at the intersection of literary + well-being/mental health?

2) What are you most excited about surrounding the You, Me, and the Writing Journey Podcast?

In this launch episode, Danielle Render Turmaud, Caroline Trussell, and Demi Michelle Schwartz discuss your stories/answers to these questions, explore the ways in which mental health and the literary journey intersect, give encouragement for the writing community, and so much more.

In the writing journey, something we often need is hope. Because of this, what better way to do a pre-launch episode than to have encouraging words from the writing community come to you. In this episode, you will hear from a few literary professionals and authors who want you to know that they are rooting for you. And don't forget, Season 1 of You, Me, and the Writing Journey Podcast launches Sunday, February 2nd!
