Stop letting fear write the story before you have checked if it is true.

Where do you source your greatest intelligence? Do you reach for answers inside your head and think your way out of it again? Do you feel it all and lose yourself in the telling? Where do you write from? From an embodied place, or are you pulling ideas down from the moon?

Memoir writing wants it all. We must descend into the depths of the mind, we must dive into the rushing veins of blood and gut. We must rise again holding the light of clarity, the voice of the soul.

Tell me how you find your inner space, how you fetch your passion, how you manage your mind?

Journaling is the first conversation with your soul.

The mind is a busy place. It is programmable. It holds your beliefs. It directs your actions and it can a cruel slave driver.

The soul however, is based in the consciousness of your heart. It is who you were first. It is still you, beneath the layers. It is a hero's journey to reach its innermost depth, and to return carrying the chalice of your own Holy Grail.

Who are you? What do you want? Where are you on your journey? When will you stop to listen? Why do you avoid your inner voice? How much longer will you stay silent to your greatest becoming?

It is safe to be unapologetically you, on the page and off it.

When we get out of our heads and drop into our hearts, the spirit of our soul can be heard. This is where your truth resides, and it is probably an unfamiliar place because we are taught to avoid it and instead let our minds run the show.

Your soul voice is the real you before someone else told you what to be; before they squeezed the creativity out of you in the name of progress. We grow when the mind and the body and the soul meet. This is your greatest place of power, and you have been outsourcing it to the world before having entered your own inner oracle.

Writing heals, brings purpose, power, and understanding to your world. You can be dyslexic, never have read a book, failed your English class... none of that matters. You are a pure, living creation of All That Is... isn't it time you began the journey deeper within? Let me walk with you and show you the door to your own secret garden.

Go inward. Stay alert. Your Soul will show up.

Your voice will not be rushed into existence. It has to be visited, the way you would visit an oracle, with reverence and with time.

This is the foundation of the book coaching I offer. Not just structure and edits, though we do that work too, but a relationship between you and the wisest part of yourself, strong enough to carry a full manuscript to completion.

Never be afraid to meet yourself on the page. It is the most sacred, safest place to begin, and it is where every real book starts. Whether you are journaling privately or writing the book you were always meant to write, trust your inner soul companion. It will lead you into worlds you did not know existed.

A client came to me with eighteen months of stalled drafts and a story she was afraid to tell properly.

Every time she got close to the honest version, she pulled back and wrote the safer one instead. That is what happens when you have not yet met your own inner oracle, the part of you that already knows the true shape of your story and is only waiting to be asked.

We did not start with structure. We started with trust. Learning to sit with an honest sentence long enough to let it stay on the page. Learning that the answers she was searching for outside herself, in other people's approval, in what she thought would be acceptable, were already inside her, waiting.

Six weeks later, she had a complete first draft, written in her own voice. That is the real work of book coaching. Not fixing sentences. Building the relationship between a writer and her own soul voice, strong enough to carry a story all the way home, with truth, clarity and purpose.

Every day we begin from that place.

Stop calling it writer's block. Most writers often just need permission.

Writing is not about clarification. It is the process that creates it. Your soul already knows the way. Soul Voice teaches you to listen.

As a recovering people pleaser, I had spent so long editing myself in real time, in conversation, in relationships, at work, that I had lost the thread of what I thought.

Writing brings you home to your heart. It is a relationship between you and your soul... the wisest part inside of you. It is like visiting your own inner oracle, which is true, loving, and wise and always present with all your answers to the mysteries and purpose of your life.

When you sit down with yourself, when you can allow yourself to be still, when you make yourself available to listen... then you can start the journey of understanding your path, engaging deeper with life, and working with ideas that bring more of you and more creative life force from you, into the world.

Never be afraid to meet yourself. It is the most sacred, safest place you can be, and it is the best place from which to start your writing journey.

Whether you wish to simply journal one-to-one on a personal life quest, or are a nonfiction or fiction author, writing and trusting your inner soul companion will enter you into worlds you did not know existed. Start the adventure!

Why aren't we protecting our planet? This is a major tourism destination on the Garden Route, yet South Africa continues to pump raw sewage directly into the sea...?

"Life is an unanswered question, but let's still believe in the dignity and importance of the question."
-Tennessee Williams

* Ensure you don't fall into the trap of collapsing the question into a comfortable fiction or turning it into a 'vital lie'.
