Don’t just take my word for it

I love the little things that just help to curate a space where there can be creativity, a space where words start flowing. Oh my gosh, I did not know I had so many words. So, if you’re thinking about having time to yourself and gifting yourself a space to think, to create, imagine what you could produce. If you just give yourself the gift of time. Thank you.

It has been an incredible experience. Getting an opportunity to not only ideate, think about our books and what we are going to be leaving as a legacy in the world, but also create it, write it, and practically engage in that process. Moving through writer’s block, being guided, but also building a community amongst others has been such a gift. I strongly recommend anyone thinking about going on a writing journey to please, please, please do yourself a favour.

I’ve already written, but for the past 3 or 4 years, I’ve been stuck. I’ve been feeling like my brain is blocked, so I couldn’t get on with or finish the book I’ve been working on. But coming to this retreat has reset me, has rejuvenated me. It was amazing having a community to think with, and a facilitator using tools that helped write faster. I liked the prompts.
