Do you even lift, sis? Join Sophia Chang, disabled dancer turned writer, whose first deadlift pulled her out of 8 years of chronic pain, 1.5 of them bedridden. Writers are more than word counts and beat sheets, and Sophia talks about the whole thing: body, brain, and glorious mess between. Featuring chronically ill authors, fitness experts, and publishing's most honest voices as we explore why your biceps matter as much as your book deal. Get ready to raise both spirits and barbells—because your stories deserve all of you. www.sophiachang.com Newsletter: https://thesophiachang.substack.com/
