Write it. Speak it. Transform it.
This is more than a writing workshop. It’s a gathering space for healing, expression, and creative self-discovery.
Together, we’ll use imaginative and reflective prompts—
✦ What color am I feeling?
✦ How I butterfly and where do I fly?
to explore our emotional landscapes, inner voices, and personal truths.
Writing will be done on a variety of papers, colorful, textured, expressive—to help connect more deeply with our senses, feelings, and creative flow.
Through storytelling and sharing (always optional), we’ll begin to decide what we want to carry forward, our wisdom, resilience, and power—and what we are ready to symbolically burn, the weight, the shame, the stories that no longer serve us.
Rooted in mutual support, connection, and self-determination, this space honors your voice, your pace, and your power to choose. We believe that healing is not something done to us, it’s something we co-create through presence, courage, and care.
What you can expect:
✦ Guided writing & generative prompts
✦ A variety of materials for expressive writing
✦ A supportive, trauma-informed environment
✦ Optional open mic sharing
✦ Reflective rituals to release and reclaim
✦ Tools you can carry into daily life for ongoing care and creativity
