When we’re writing regularly, we show up to our life as our full self. Engaged. Curious. Open.

But when we’re stuck, we can start doubting our skills or even whether we’re meant to be writing. We get mired in the noise of life and start to feel helpless.

Not knowing is a space of wisdom and compassion, but not writing is, for most of us, an unconscious decision to turn away from ourselves and others. From the daily magic right under our nose.

For writing to be a refuge, a space where we metabolize challenges and bounce back with more tenderness and more strength, we must befriend ourselves.

This workshop supports writers to persevere in their truth-telling from a foundation of love. If the basis of your writing practice tends to be ennui and/or a rush of stress over nearly-missed deadlines, we invite you to drop the guilt spiral and join us in clearing paths for your inner voice to sing through.

Your readers are waiting.

"Meg directs me back towards the core of the project before I wander too far off the path." ~ Toni T.

“I’ve loved these moments of feeling alive.” ~ Arianna W.

“Meg met me on the meta-level of my writing projects in a way no one has done before. With a manner that is both open-ended and precise, she gently and effectively reminds you to keep claiming and integrating the intertwined nature of your life and your art. Bodyworkers talk about someone being a “healer’s healer” — that’s what Meg Hayertz is to writers.“ ~ Nora Boxer, noraboxer.com
