The Transformative Power of Journaling: Unleashing Your Inner Story

Journaling is a timeless practice that transcends cultures and generations. From ancient philosophers to modern-day thought leaders, many have extolled the virtues of putting pen to paper to capture thoughts, emotions, and experiences. But what is it about journaling that makes it such a powerful tool for personal growth and transformation? Let’s delve into the transformative power of journaling and how it can unlock your inner story.

Embracing Vulnerability: The Power of Sharing Your Darkest Times

As writers, we are often faced with the daunting question of whether to share openly about our darkest times.

You Have Something to Say

You may or may not know this about me, but I am a writing/book coach who has loved writing and reading since before I could even comprehend my love for the written word. Sounds cuckoo, I know. I am quirky, what can I say?

You may be surprised to hear that I landed in my first Alcoholics Anonymous meeting at the tender age of seven. Before you freak out, let me assure you that I wasn’t an alcoholic at seven. I was there because my parents were required to be there and they didn’t have anything to do with me except bring me along. So there I was.
