Work With Me

rediscover your internal compass with reflective writing

Why write?

 

“The world is too much with us; late and soon,
Getting and spending, we lay waste our powers;
Little we see in Nature that is ours;
We have given our hearts away…”
~ Wm. Wordsworth

 

How do you uncover who you really are, and what you really want when …

Don’t worry about sounding professional. Sound like you. There are over 1.5 billion websites out there, but your story is what’s going to separate this one from the rest. If you read the words back and don’t hear your own voice in your head, that’s a good sign you still have more work to do.

Be clear, be confident and don’t overthink it. The beauty of your story is that it’s going to continue to evolve and your site can evolve with it. Your goal should be to make it feel right for right now. Later will take care of itself. It always does.

“The world is too much with us; late and soon,
Getting and spending, we lay waste our powers; Little we see in Nature that is ours;
We have given our hearts away…”

 …you’re conditioned to put others first…

…you apologize for taking up space…

…you’ve been trained to mistrust your own desires…

How do you break loose of the things that are dragging you down and holding you back …

…the years of conditioning, societal expectations, messages from the patriarchy, social media, advertising, diet culture, and a self-help industry that often plays into our deepest fears?


With writing.
It’s as simple and complex as that.

Simple, because it’s just you, pen and page. Thoughts spilling out, uncensored, unrestrained … with no one looking over your shoulder.

Complicated, because it requires you to dig in to your inner life and experience, and face yourself on the page. And it might be a bit scary to think about what you might uncover.


But the person you really want to be …?
The life you really want to have?

It REQUIRES this of you.

But don’t worry, I’ve got you …

…and there are a few different ways to get started.
