The Nope Coach


Mar 5, 2025

Ever feel like journaling is just another chore on your to-do list? You're not alone. In this eye-opening episode, I sit down with Lynn Quinn to explore a refreshing alternative: reflection writing.

We dive into how this practice can be a game-changer for over-givers and people-pleasers looking to prioritise self-care without the guilt.

Lynn shares her unique approach to daily reflection and how it's transformed her ability to set boundaries and communicate effectively.

In this episode Suzanne and Lynn discuss:

  • Discover the difference between journaling and reflection writing.
  • Learn about the "Ferris wheel of the mind" and how to clear mental clutter.
  • Explore Lynn's four zones of communication and how they impact our daily interactions.
  • Uncover a five-step process for critical thinking that can revolutionise your decision-making.
  • Find out how reflection writing can strengthen your boundary-setting skills.

Lynn shares her incredible journey of writing daily for over 1,111 days straight and how it's transformed her life and work as a "cognitive architect."

Whether you're a seasoned journaler or someone who's always struggled to keep a diary, this conversation will give you a fresh perspective on the power of putting pen to paper (or fingers to keyboard). It's time to turn reflection into a habit that serves you, not another task that drains you.
