Writing is often framed as an external obligation in schools, but we believe it’s much more than that. Writing is an act of self-expression—a way to explore ideas, emotions, and creativity. In this episode, we discuss how parents can help children reclaim the joy of writing, emphasizing its value as a personal journey rather than just a task to complete. We also touch on the role of AI, the importance of fostering self-expression, and how writing connects us to the world and each other.Listen to the full episode for insights on how to nurture confident, passionate writers in your family.Resources:Austin Kleon on why he saves New Year’s resolutions for FebruaryAnne Helen Petersen, “The Social Media Sea Change”Find Wintering by Katherine May in the Brave Writer Book ShopJulie’s new author website (juliebogartwriter.com) goes live next week!Subscribe to Julie’s Substack newsletters: Brave Learning with Julie Bogart and Julie Off TopicPreorder Julie’s new book, Help!
