Yes, your journal can be all this. Lean in. Trust. Flow. The answers you've been searching for (outside of you) are waiting to meet you on the page. Hello lovely. I believe in trusting the full process of LIFE. I believe anything is possible, life is beautiful even when it's hard and clarity can always be found on the page. Join me for weekly stories, inspiration, and practical writing inspo to write your life. My mission: to inspire creatives (writers or not) to move past resistance, onto the page each and every day. It's waiting for you. So glad you're here. xx, Kim p.s. Even the skeptics are loving this WRITE practice. Why not give it a try.

Don’t believe the storyteller, the voice of knowledge in your head, especially when the voice is going against you. Listen to yourself, listen to your story, but don’t believe it because the story you are writing is mostly fiction. It isn’t real. The lies in your story can only survive if you believe them. If you don’t believe them, they won't survive your skepticism and will simply disappear.

Last week I shared the story of re-scripting our trip to Seattle.
This week...
Oh, my word...who knew a quick trip could bring such an amazing gift.
Lately, I've been feeling a little less-than-inspired. My birthday (51) didn't seem to help my mood.
Then came Seattle... a 5 minute chance encounter...
and oh my word the lights came on.
I'm officially all-in on 51!
I've decided it's the perfect age for me to be. And, I plan on leani...
