Coaching the writer within
This specialised coaching course guides writers on a deep personal journey into their writing, blocks, past experiences, and future hopes.
This seven-month coaching course is all about unlocking your full creative potential as a writer.
On this course, you get to connect with a personal coach - a real person who understands something of what you are experiencing as a writer, and who can give you validation, a sense of companionship, and a friendly challenge to open up more of your capabilities.
In between dealing with writing blocks, we'll get into some other really tasty topics such as:
-How to recognise your artistic calling and use it to power your writing.
-How the mythic hero's journey applies to you as an artist.
-How you can harness masculine and feminine energies to manifest your creation.
-How you can access the inspiration zone and unleash the powers of your subconscious mind.
-How to create inspiring writing goals that come from your heart and are aligned with your highest potential.
Tutor for this course: Russel Brownlee is a writer and life coach based in Cape Town, South Africa. He started out in journalism, but soon started following his dream of writing a novel.
