Imagined Dialogue Between Julia Cameron and Steven Pressfield

Setting:
A spacious, light-filled studio with white walls and large windows letting in streams of sunlight. Linen sofas and chairs are arranged in a semi-circle for an intimate gathering. The soft sounds of instrumental guitar music play in the background. The audience is made up of creative women—photographers, filmmakers, writers, content creators, and small business owners—eagerly jotting down notes in their journals or sipping tea from delicate porcelain cups. Julia Cameron sits serenely, exuding calm wisdom, while Steven Pressfield leans slightly forward, his energy direct and motivating.

1. Initial Meeting & Setup

[The audience murmurs as Julia Cameron and Steven Pressfield walk into the room together, exchanging warm greetings.]

Julia Cameron (settling into a linen armchair):
“Welcome, everyone. It’s such a joy to be here with you in this beautiful space, surrounded by fellow creatives. Steven and I are here to talk about something I believe we all know well—how to move past the fear, the blocks, the resistance to simply doing what we are called to do.”

Steven Pressfield (leaning on the arm of the chair, addressing the audience directly):
“I can’t think of a better partner for this conversation than Julia. Her work has been the North Star for so many creatives. And I think what brings us all here today is the same question: How do we actually do the thing—especially when it feels impossible?”

Julia Cameron (nodding thoughtfully):
“Yes, and especially when we’re afraid. Fear is not our enemy, though. It’s our companion in the creative process. The key is learning to move forward with it, not wait for it to disappear.”

The audience leans in, notebooks poised.

2. Core Philosophy Comparison

Steven Pressfield (gesturing animatedly):
“I call it Resistance. That invisible force that tells you to procrastinate, that you’re not good enough, or that you’ll start tomorrow. Resistance isn’t just a feeling; it’s almost like a demon. Its entire purpose is to stop you from doing what matters most. And it’s strongest when the stakes are highest.”

Julia Cameron (smiling gently):
“Yes, Steven, I think of that force as the ‘inner critic.’ It can sound so convincing—telling us we’re foolish, that our work isn’t important. But I’ve found a powerful antidote: small, consistent steps. A daily practice of writing, even just three pages, as I recommend in The Artist’s Way. Morning Pages silence that critic and let us access the deeper truth beneath all the noise.”

Steven Pressfield (nodding with enthusiasm):
“Exactly! It’s not about waiting for inspiration. It’s about showing up every single day. The muse, or whatever you want to call it, will meet you halfway—but only if you’re at the desk or the canvas first. That’s why I say, ‘Put your ass where your heart wants to be.’ Your body has to lead your mind.”

Julia Cameron (laughing softly):
“And when the mind rebels, a bit of playfulness helps. My favorite tool for that is the Artist Date—a weekly solo adventure where you fill your creative well. Resistance hates joy, after all. It thrives on drudgery.”

Steven Pressfield (grinning):
“So, we’re agreed. The solution to fear and Resistance is action. It doesn’t have to be perfect. It just has to be forward.”

3. Practical Application

[Steven grabs a marker and walks to a whiteboard at the front of the room. Julia pulls out a notebook, ready to build on his ideas.]

Steven Pressfield (writing the word “ACTION” in bold letters):
“Here’s the truth: Resistance will always show up. The trick is to outsmart it. Let’s break this down into steps. First, recognize that Resistance is lying to you. Every time it says you’re not ready, that’s your cue to start anyway.”

Julia Cameron (adding with a calm tone):
“And once you start, keep it small. Start with just 15 minutes, or a single task. If you’re writing, maybe it’s one sentence. The momentum builds itself.”

Steven Pressfield (adding arrows to his diagram):
“And schedule it. Make an appointment with yourself like you would with a client or friend. Keep that promise. The discipline isn’t punishment; it’s freedom.”

Julia Cameron (gesturing toward the audience):
“And be kind to yourself. If you miss a day, forgive yourself and begin again. The creative life is a practice, not a test.”

Steven Pressfield (turning to Julia, smiling):
“Okay, so we’ve got ‘small steps’ and ‘show up no matter what.’ What’s your next move after that first step?”

Julia Cameron (thoughtfully):
“For me, it’s gratitude. Celebrate what you’ve done, even if it feels tiny. Acknowledge that showing up is a victory over fear. That joy will carry you to the next step.”

4. Audience Interaction

A woman in the audience raises her hand.

Audience Member 1:
“What if the fear doesn’t go away, even after I’ve started?”

Julia Cameron (leaning forward, her voice soft):
“Fear doesn’t leave us—it transforms. It turns into excitement, into energy. I’d recommend writing about it, in detail, in your Morning Pages. Often, the act of naming the fear weakens its power over us.”

Steven Pressfield (nodding in agreement):
“I’ll add to that. If the fear doesn’t go away, use it as a compass. It’s pointing directly at what you’re meant to do. The more scared you are, the more it matters.”

Audience Member 2:
“How do you know when to push through resistance versus when to rest?”

Steven Pressfield (smiling thoughtfully):
“Great question. Rest is part of the discipline. But there’s a difference between rest and avoidance. If you’ve worked today—even a little—you’ve earned the rest. If you haven’t, Resistance is just whispering excuses.”

Julia Cameron (with a knowing smile):
“And remember, rest can be active. An Artist Date is a perfect way to rejuvenate your creative spirit without feeling guilty.”

5. Shared Wisdom for Getting Unstuck

Julia Cameron (addressing the room):
“What I hope you take away today is this: Creativity is not about perfection. It’s about showing up and trusting the process. Morning Pages, Artist Dates, small steps—they all add up to a life that flows with creativity.”

Steven Pressfield (standing now, his voice resonant):
“And here’s my promise: If you show up every day, Resistance will lose its grip. Fear doesn’t win unless you let it. Keep doing the work, one step at a time.”

The audience bursts into applause as Julia and Steven exchange a look of mutual respect. Both rise and invite everyone to spend five minutes writing their first step toward the project they’ve been dreaming of.

Steven Pressfield (to the group):
“Write it down. Then, when you leave here, do it.”

Julia Cameron (smiling):
“And don’t forget to celebrate that you’ve begun. That’s the magic of creativity—it rewards courage with joy.”

How Does It Work?

1. Choose Your Figures: Pick two people who inspire you—authors, artists, mentors, or anyone whose advice you’d value.

2. Set the Context: Provide details about your target audience (it can even just be you), the theme of the conversation, the setting, and anything specific you’d like included.

3. Watch the Magic Happen: Let the CustomGPT generate a rich, insightful dialogue that speaks directly to your creative challenges or aspirations.

For example, I picked Steven Pressfield and Julia Cameron, imagining them in a sunlit studio with creative women in their second act. The theme? Moving past resistance and fear to do the work we’re meant to do.

We all know resistance—the procrastination, self-doubt, and fear that shows up when we dare to create. Steven Pressfield’s ‘just do the work’ approach contrasts beautifully with Julia Cameron’s nurturing encouragement, creating a dialogue that feels personal, actionable, and deeply resonant.
Isn’t it such an amazing time to be on the internet. : )
