Ever sit down to write…

…and end up spending 45 minutes tweaking your newsletter banner?

Or rereading the same sentence 17 times?

Or scrolling Substack thinking maybe if I just read one more post, I’ll get inspired…

Yeah. Me too.

For a long time, writing felt like herding cats inside my brain. I was tired before I even typed a word. But then I figured out a simple truth:

Your brain’s not broken. It just needs direction.

In today’s mini-masterclass, I’ll walk you through the exact system I now use — one that helps me write faster without burning out or overthinking every word.

You’ll learn:

  • Why your brain resists writing (and how to fix it)

  • A simple process to speed things up

  • How I write better and faster by doing less

It’s short. It’s practical. And it works.
