Writing can feel like a lonely pursuit—but finding your voice is about more than just words on a page. It’s about stepping out of isolation, embracing your story, and daring to share it with the world. In this episode of Unfinished Stories: The Next Chapter, I sit down with writer and poet Tina Djuretic to explore what it really means to find your voice as a writer. Tina’s journey hasn’t been linear—like many of us, she’s wrestled with self-doubt, creative blocks, and the fear of being truly seen. But through poetry and storytelling, she’s carved a path from isolation to authentic self-expression.
