A life-changing nine-month course, engaging writing as a sacred practice, activating depths of self-knowledge and personal growth required for wise leadership. As Aristotle said, ‘knowing yourself is the beginning of all wisdom.’
Writing things down helps us to address challenging experiences. Writing allows us to process, release and make meaning of complex emotions. It is a way of releasing story lines that keep us stuck. Writing can also help us to define and design our vision for the future.
More on the Healing Power of Writing
James Pennebaker, a psychologist at the University of Texas, pioneered research on the healing power of writing. Scientific research shows that the emotional release we receive from writing and journalling can lower stress and anxiety. It has been shown to lead to an improved immune system and aid our overall physical and emotional well-being. Harvard Health suggests that the process of writing may enable us to better understand and regulate our emotions. “Writing about something fosters an intellectual process — the act of constructing a story about an event — that helps someone break free of the endless mental cycling more typical of brooding or rumination.”
This course is designed for people who:
- Want to powerfully combine personal and professional development
- Are prepared to do the inner work required for truly wise leadership
- Are life-long learners with natural curiosity
- Are driven to make a real difference
- Are ready for change.
People often ask me how I have been able to live and work for myself with such freedom, adventure and abundance. I can’t wait to share what I have learned through more than 20 years of creating my own empowered pathways.
I am here to support your personal and career goals for 2025 and beyond.
I will lead you to:
- Align with your true self and purpose
- Discover your unconscious stories and scripts
- Release things that hold you back
- Gain clarity and focus
- Develop new stories that promote transformation and growth
- Create positive pathways forward.
Wise leaders know themselves: their strengths, goals, stories, values, limitations, perspectives, and patterns. Most importantly, wise leaders know how these aspects of self inform the way they think, feel and act. ‘Knowing others is intelligence; knowing yourself is true wisdom.’ Lao Tzu
