#WriteWithMe Reflection: week 17
The writing prompts for this last week were about fear. Naming the fears we hold about what we cant or wont be able to do, and identifying ways to release the hold the fear has on us. My most successful survival tactics have included stuffing all of the big feelings inside and ignoring them to the point where I no […]

#WriteWithMe Reflection: Week 10
Wow, the end of the year… 2022 was a lot. Looking back on it, I wonder how we ever functioned in the “pre 2020” days, when we were doing so much more running around and “stuff.” I felt in a lot of ways that we were trying to slow down, remove and release the stuff that just didn’t fit our […]
