    Journaling Through Life's Plot Twists with Suleika Jaouad

She highlights the benefits of journaling on mental health, and how it has changed her life. The discussion also explores practical aspects of journaling, from overcoming the fear of a blank page to maintaining consistency through accountability and prompts. Suleika shares her preferred tools—a fountain pen and quality paper—and the rituals that help her stay consistent..  Plus, Wirecutter writer Arriana Vasquez tells us about digital notebooks, an innovative way to modernize the writing experience without sacrificing the tactile pleasure of it.  Listeners will gain actionable insights into starting and sustaining a journaling practice.
